Rebel News Podcast - EZRA LEVANT ｜ Canada's health minister pushes a third dose of vaccines, are mandates coming back？

00:00:00.760 Hello, my Rebels. Today, I take you through a very short speech by the health minister.

00:00:05.680 It's just a one-minute comment, but in it, he basically says, get ready for a new requirement.

00:00:10.980 You have to have your third dose or you're considered unvaccinated.

00:00:15.500 Now, you know, that may be his opinion, but what if there's an or else to it?

00:00:20.740 What if he'll punish you if you don't?

00:00:23.700 I'll take you through his statement and ask some questions. That's next.

00:00:26.460 But first, let me invite you to subscribe to Rebel News Plus. That's the video version of this podcast.

00:00:33.820 I think it really makes a difference, especially if we show you images or video clips.

00:00:38.760 It's just eight bucks a month. You get my weeknight show. That's 20 times a month.

00:00:44.120 And you get weekly shows by four of my colleagues here. So it's 36 shows a month.

00:00:49.580 It's just eight dollars a month. I can't even believe it's that cheap.

00:00:52.620 I think maybe we should raise the price, frankly. It's half the price of Netflix.

00:00:57.620 And the reason we need that, though, actually, is to keep our company strong, because we don't take any money from Trudeau.

00:01:01.900 We rely on you. So please go to rebelnewsplus.com.

00:01:05.660 All right. Here's today's show.

00:01:11.620 You're listening to a Rebel News Podcast.

00:01:14.100 Tonight, Canada's health minister is now pushing a third dose of the vaccine.

00:01:27.120 Are they going to bring back mandates again?

00:01:29.320 It's July 4th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.

00:01:32.100 You've got it for freedom!

00:01:35.060 Shame on you, you censorious bug!

00:01:38.100 It's the 4th of July, a day of freedom and independence in the United States, a day of revolution, to be candid,

00:01:54.500 taking up arms against a tyrant that really isn't in our Canadian spirit, is it?

00:01:59.800 In fact, many people on the British side of that Revolutionary War came north, especially to Ontario.

00:02:06.640 United Empire Loyalists, they were called.

00:02:09.860 We didn't have a revolution here.

00:02:11.340 We had a slow evolution, didn't we?

00:02:14.840 Our country has changed a lot, but our relative submissiveness, when compared to Americans,

00:02:20.340 it's still part of our national character.

00:02:22.220 Compare that to the Declaration of Independence in the United States.

00:02:25.340 You really ought to read it, if you haven't, as a Canadian.

00:02:29.800 Some of the language is a bit archaic at being nearly 250 years old, but it's clear enough.

00:02:34.540 Can I read some of it to you, just in case you don't know it, and even if you do?

00:02:38.680 It seems like a July 4th thing to do.

00:02:40.580 I'll read some.

00:02:41.360 We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal,

00:02:46.220 that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights,

00:02:50.340 that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness,

00:02:53.640 that to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men,

00:02:57.920 deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed,

00:03:02.440 that whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends,

00:03:06.740 it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it,

00:03:10.620 and to institute new government,

00:03:12.900 laying the foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form,

00:03:17.320 as to them shall seem most likely to affect their safety and happiness.

00:03:21.680 Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established

00:03:25.200 should not be changed for light and transient causes.

00:03:29.660 And accordingly, all experience has shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer

00:03:33.860 while evils are sufferable,

00:03:36.680 than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed.

00:03:40.720 But when a long train of abuses and usurpations pursuing invariably the same object

00:03:46.920 evinces are designed to reduce them under absolute despotism.

00:03:51.920 It is their right, it is their duty,

00:03:54.340 to throw off such government,

00:03:56.100 and to provide new guards for their future security.

00:04:00.880 It's just very powerful.

00:04:02.080 What follows is quite a long list of deep grievances they had

00:04:05.500 with the British Empire at that point.

00:04:09.740 So those are the people

00:04:11.140 that put in the First Amendment,

00:04:13.720 you know, protecting freedom of speech from the government.

00:04:16.000 Those are the people who put in the Second Amendment.

00:04:19.160 It came later in the Bill of Rights.

00:04:21.140 But this is the spirit.

00:04:23.440 Protecting your right to bear arms.

00:04:25.140 Having read that,

00:04:27.020 and think you can't have a revolution without guns,

00:04:30.060 the Second Amendment was not about hunting.

00:04:33.180 It was about maintaining a veto over any would-be tyrant.

00:04:37.800 That's why the Second Amendment's in there.

00:04:40.240 So that's the Americans.

00:04:42.180 We're a bit different, aren't we?

00:04:43.600 I have an American friend who was telling me

00:04:45.580 how when he moved to Toronto,

00:04:46.760 he just couldn't get over how often Canadians say sorry to each other.

00:04:51.040 Sorry, sorry.

00:04:51.760 No, I'm sorry.

00:04:52.320 No, I'm more sorry.

00:04:54.300 And it's good to be sorry for certain things,

00:04:56.440 but not just as a default utterance.

00:04:58.880 Your natural reaction is that you submit,

00:05:01.340 you comply,

00:05:01.960 you ask for forgiveness

00:05:02.980 or permission that you are wrong.

00:05:05.380 Sorry, sorry, sorry, sorry.

00:05:07.160 It's funny, isn't it?

00:05:09.820 This is the Gadsden flag.

00:05:11.440 You ever seen that?

00:05:12.280 It's named after its creator.

00:05:13.820 It was actually made for the American Revolution.

00:05:16.020 Don't tread on me.

00:05:17.420 And a snake.

00:05:19.220 Pretty much the opposite of sorry.

00:05:20.820 Sorry.

00:05:21.160 No, I'm sorry.

00:05:22.620 Thank God for the Americans.

00:05:23.820 I say today on the 4th of July,

00:05:26.300 and I say it most other days too,

00:05:28.600 America is pretty much done with its COVID lockdowns,

00:05:31.120 by the way.

00:05:32.420 Even the bluest of blue states.

00:05:34.560 There are some remnants, but not many.

00:05:37.460 What politicians didn't abolish, the courts did,

00:05:40.600 including knocking down the mask rule for airlines.

00:05:44.420 You can still wear a mask if you like,

00:05:45.980 knock yourself out,

00:05:46.780 but the collective mania has been broken.

00:05:50.500 These days, people think about Ukraine

00:05:52.580 or inflation or other things, gas prices.

00:05:56.480 Sort of broken the hypnosis.

00:05:58.460 I also credit the fact that people have simply seen

00:06:01.140 that the free states, like Florida and Texas,

00:06:03.720 did not all die from COVID.

00:06:05.960 In fact, they usually had better health outcomes

00:06:08.180 than the blue states.

00:06:10.180 And they didn't make their kids lose a year or two of school

00:06:12.780 or make businesses shut down.

00:06:15.740 So that's the freedom country.

00:06:17.500 Happy birthday to them.

00:06:20.020 How about up here?

00:06:22.300 Well, here's Trudeau's health minister,

00:06:25.000 Jean-Yves Duclos,

00:06:26.760 telling us how it is.

00:06:28.040 This is just a minute long.

00:06:30.880 Take a look and listen.

00:06:32.700 But what exactly do we mean by up-to-date vaccination?

00:06:37.660 Let me be very clear.

00:06:40.220 Up-to-date means you've received your last dose

00:06:43.400 in the past nine months.

00:06:46.360 Up-to-date means you've received your last dose

00:06:49.460 in the past nine months.

00:06:51.080 If you've already received a first booster,

00:06:54.540 that's great.

00:06:56.100 And please see if you're eligible

00:06:57.860 for a second or a third booster

00:07:00.560 to remain up-to-date.

00:07:03.040 But my message today,

00:07:05.180 more specifically,

00:07:06.560 is for those that haven't yet received

00:07:08.780 their first booster.

00:07:10.660 The immunity conferred

00:07:12.360 by a primary series of two doses

00:07:14.780 of vaccines administered in 2021

00:07:17.380 has now waned.

00:07:19.820 While you might have gotten infected,

00:07:22.960 risk is high.

00:07:24.320 You could get reinfected

00:07:26.040 with all the downfall,

00:07:28.340 including the risk of developing symptoms

00:07:30.800 of long COVID.

00:07:33.520 As health experts and physicians

00:07:35.140 will tell you,

00:07:36.720 it's critical that you go

00:07:38.340 and get the shot that's waiting for you.

00:07:40.400 There's a lot in that minute,

00:07:41.900 isn't there?

00:07:42.760 He's now talking about

00:07:43.720 a second or third booster.

00:07:46.700 That's on top of what he calls

00:07:48.180 two primary shots.

00:07:49.780 So he's up to four now.

00:07:52.020 By the way,

00:07:52.720 it's the same injection every time.

00:07:54.100 There's no difference.

00:07:55.620 They're telling you to take

00:07:56.760 up to five doses now.

00:07:58.740 But not to stop there.

00:08:00.280 You heard them.

00:08:01.440 Take them perpetually every nine months.

00:08:04.100 That's the new definition of fully vaxxed.

00:08:07.040 You're actually never fully vaxxed

00:08:08.720 because in nine months,

00:08:09.580 you'll need another.

00:08:11.360 Funny, when we were kids,

00:08:13.180 we got a vaccine.

00:08:14.100 I remember one called MMR.

00:08:16.660 I remembered it.

00:08:17.420 Measles, mumps, and rubella.

00:08:19.160 You got it all in one shot,

00:08:20.740 taken once and then never again.

00:08:22.100 You never thought about it again.

00:08:23.900 There was a polio vaccine

00:08:25.400 in some parts of the world.

00:08:27.160 You took it once and never again.

00:08:29.960 That's what a vaccine means.

00:08:32.900 Five shots of the same thing.

00:08:35.780 Now, hang on.

00:08:36.240 And that's the original version

00:08:38.200 of the vaccine, right?

00:08:39.840 But we know the virus has evolved, right?

00:08:42.300 It's mutated.

00:08:43.060 It's variants.

00:08:44.360 You've heard the different names of them.

00:08:46.060 The Delta variant.

00:08:47.660 The Omicron variant.

00:08:49.340 These are different Greek letters.

00:08:50.660 They're listing them.

00:08:53.300 Are we still using the vaccine

00:08:54.580 meant for the first variant

00:08:55.680 on the what?

00:08:56.520 Is it now fifth variant?

00:08:58.600 Has it ever been done in science before?

00:09:01.340 Is that a real thing?

00:09:02.100 But the admission here

00:09:03.940 was sort of buried

00:09:04.820 in the bland language.

00:09:06.940 These aren't vaccines at all

00:09:08.520 by the standard definition.

00:09:09.720 You heard them.

00:09:10.800 The immunity conferred

00:09:12.180 has now waned.

00:09:14.380 So to use myself an example,

00:09:17.060 someone who took one, two,

00:09:18.800 three doses of the jab,

00:09:20.340 but nine months has gone by,

00:09:22.160 they're no better than me.

00:09:25.380 In fact, maybe their natural immune system

00:09:27.300 is weaker than mine.

00:09:28.160 Their immunity has waned.

00:09:32.820 It's actually worse than just waning.

00:09:35.860 I don't know if you remember

00:09:36.420 a few months ago,

00:09:37.040 I showed you this incredible study

00:09:38.460 out of Denmark,

00:09:39.820 how after 90 days,

00:09:41.600 the two mRNA vaccines

00:09:43.300 actually reached into

00:09:45.280 negative effectiveness,

00:09:47.580 negative efficacy, they called it.

00:09:49.080 As in, they not only didn't work well,

00:09:52.600 they actually worked negatively.

00:09:54.900 They made you more likely

00:09:56.840 to get sick

00:09:57.860 than if you hadn't taken them at all.

00:10:00.860 So you're no better off.

00:10:03.600 You're actually more likely

00:10:05.100 to get sick

00:10:06.860 having taken so many jabs,

00:10:08.420 says the Danish study and others.

00:10:10.700 But you're also putting yourself

00:10:12.220 at some risk from the vaccine itself.

00:10:14.860 Now, I don't know exactly

00:10:15.860 what that risk level is.

00:10:17.000 I don't think we're getting

00:10:17.980 all the facts, by the way.

00:10:19.740 The government collects reports

00:10:21.500 of vaccine injuries,

00:10:22.640 but it's a voluntary system.

00:10:24.200 And there is enormous pressure

00:10:25.940 not to report an illness

00:10:27.660 as vaccine-caused.

00:10:29.660 It's absurd to see headlines

00:10:31.120 in the news

00:10:31.820 explaining all the

00:10:33.260 newfangled explanations

00:10:34.820 for why young people,

00:10:37.060 young healthy males in particular,

00:10:38.560 keep getting heart attacks

00:10:40.260 or why Justin Bieber

00:10:41.340 got his face paralyzed.

00:10:43.140 Look at this one.

00:10:44.000 Watching TV.

00:10:47.120 Gardening.

00:10:50.080 An unhealthy childhood.

00:10:52.180 Wearing socks.

00:10:56.560 And my favorite,

00:10:58.560 solar storms.

00:11:00.080 Yeah, that's why people

00:11:01.440 are getting heart attacks now.

00:11:03.260 It's my favorite one,

00:11:04.400 solar storms.

00:11:06.420 So yeah, you heard the man.

00:11:08.320 These so-called vaccines

00:11:09.500 that don't actually vaccinate you

00:11:11.160 against getting the disease,

00:11:13.340 whatever effect they have,

00:11:14.640 and like I say,

00:11:15.380 they lack their essential promise

00:11:16.760 of vaccinating you.

00:11:17.500 Well, that effect,

00:11:18.560 whatever you want to call it,

00:11:19.460 wears off.

00:11:20.480 That's the health minister

00:11:21.240 saying it himself.

00:11:22.560 You say that a year ago

00:11:24.080 on YouTube,

00:11:24.680 you'd have your channel

00:11:25.520 taken down.

00:11:26.500 So none of the protection

00:11:28.040 after a few months.

00:11:29.400 But all the risks.

00:11:31.200 In Canada,

00:11:31.940 345 deaths

00:11:33.620 reported from the jab.

00:11:36.180 Over 9,600

00:11:37.240 serious injuries

00:11:38.960 like heart attacks.

00:11:40.940 Now stop right there.

00:11:41.820 And again,

00:11:43.360 these are just things

00:11:43.980 that are being reported

00:11:44.680 that doctors haven't written off

00:11:45.940 as other things.

00:11:47.580 So the total number

00:11:48.480 of deaths ascribed

00:11:49.800 to COVID in Canada

00:11:51.440 since the beginning

00:11:52.060 is 42,000.

00:11:53.460 Now I'm a skeptic

00:11:54.180 of that number

00:11:54.680 because anyone who dies

00:11:56.280 within 30 days

00:11:57.420 of a test positive

00:11:59.600 for COVID

00:12:00.100 was typically counted.

00:12:01.860 I think I showed you

00:12:02.620 that absurd case

00:12:03.400 in another country.

00:12:04.440 Someone fell off a ladder

00:12:05.660 and died.

00:12:06.500 But because they were

00:12:07.460 positive for COVID,

00:12:08.440 they counted it that way.

00:12:09.900 So they were pumping

00:12:10.640 up the numbers.

00:12:11.220 In fact,

00:12:11.660 a lot of the numbers

00:12:12.200 have been revised down.

00:12:14.740 And as you may remember,

00:12:16.140 there was a miracle

00:12:17.040 in 2021.

00:12:18.880 Literally no one

00:12:19.720 got the flu.

00:12:21.440 It just didn't happen.

00:12:22.540 I remember in Alberta,

00:12:23.800 it's flu free.

00:12:24.600 Oh, really?

00:12:26.420 Here's the Toronto Star.

00:12:27.560 They're just amazed.

00:12:29.340 And do you think

00:12:29.900 there really were

00:12:30.440 no flu cases last year?

00:12:32.340 Or do you think,

00:12:33.320 oh, it's just possible

00:12:34.280 that maybe

00:12:35.000 those flu cases

00:12:36.540 were called COVID cases,

00:12:38.580 misdiagnosed or treated

00:12:39.740 or, you know,

00:12:40.960 for whatever reason,

00:12:42.700 one respiratory disease,

00:12:44.140 another respiratory disease,

00:12:46.160 that some flu deaths,

00:12:47.360 I mean, typically six,

00:12:48.320 seven, eight thousand people

00:12:49.320 die a year from flu in Canada,

00:12:51.720 that they were counted

00:12:52.360 as COVID just to keep

00:12:53.380 the hysteria going,

00:12:54.880 keep the funding going.

00:12:57.140 But Trudeau's got a problem.

00:12:58.740 You know,

00:12:58.880 he needs to keep up

00:13:00.100 the feeling of panic.

00:13:01.660 You heard Duclo.

00:13:03.280 Risk is high

00:13:04.560 that you could get

00:13:05.340 reinfected.

00:13:06.220 It's critical

00:13:07.400 that you go

00:13:08.680 and get the shot

00:13:09.720 that's waiting for you.

00:13:11.520 Do you think

00:13:12.520 that's true?

00:13:14.500 Do you think

00:13:14.860 people believe that anymore?

00:13:18.080 Some people do.

00:13:19.380 I think this is why

00:13:20.080 governments love

00:13:20.960 masks so much.

00:13:23.940 Masks are a sign

00:13:24.780 of fear,

00:13:26.420 a sign that others

00:13:27.240 are afraid,

00:13:27.900 a sign of sickness,

00:13:29.620 a sign of compliance.

00:13:31.900 That's why the government

00:13:32.720 loves masks.

00:13:34.300 It's hard to press fear

00:13:35.760 if no one looks afraid

00:13:37.800 and no one you know

00:13:39.460 is dying.

00:13:39.880 Remember,

00:13:40.180 the average age of death

00:13:41.080 for COVID

00:13:41.500 was always in the high 70s

00:13:43.300 and it was people

00:13:43.700 who were typically

00:13:44.220 very sick to begin with.

00:13:45.860 Most people simply

00:13:46.700 weren't affected

00:13:47.880 by COVID,

00:13:49.000 not in their real lives.

00:13:50.800 The pandemic

00:13:51.240 was a bust medically,

00:13:52.720 but it was,

00:13:53.620 I mean,

00:13:53.820 certainly no plague,

00:13:54.960 but the government

00:13:56.780 wants to wring

00:13:57.720 everything they can

00:13:58.720 out of it.

00:13:59.260 Trudeau also has

00:14:01.600 another problem.

00:14:02.460 Remember this headline?

00:14:03.360 I've shown it to you

00:14:04.080 before.

00:14:05.240 Canada has ordered

00:14:06.180 more than 400 million

00:14:07.940 COVID-19 vaccine shots.

00:14:09.960 Here's the progress report.

00:14:11.220 CBC's pretty happy.

00:14:13.880 Trudeau spent billions

00:14:14.860 of dollars

00:14:15.460 buying 10 jabs

00:14:17.400 for every man,

00:14:18.180 woman,

00:14:18.420 child,

00:14:18.640 and baby.

00:14:19.240 He'd look like an idiot

00:14:20.140 if he admitted

00:14:20.760 we don't need them.

00:14:23.300 Look,

00:14:23.800 this isn't about health.

00:14:26.420 It never was.

00:14:27.320 It was,

00:14:27.840 it's about

00:14:29.040 power.

00:14:29.440 If it was about health,

00:14:30.240 we wouldn't have

00:14:30.640 banned people

00:14:31.220 from going to the gym

00:14:32.060 or kids from going

00:14:34.560 to the playground

00:14:35.020 or playing sports.

00:14:35.700 We wouldn't have

00:14:36.100 put children in masks

00:14:37.640 or kept children

00:14:38.300 out of school

00:14:38.840 if this was about health.

00:14:40.160 We wouldn't have

00:14:40.860 done the things we did

00:14:41.780 if this was about health.

00:14:44.720 It's about fear

00:14:45.560 and control.

00:14:46.180 It's about government

00:14:46.780 power

00:14:47.280 and your compliance.

00:14:51.040 So there's Trudeau's

00:14:52.040 health minister

00:14:52.540 telling you that

00:14:53.780 no matter what you think,

00:14:55.520 the crisis is permanent.

00:14:56.700 Every nine months

00:14:59.340 you need another dose

00:15:00.320 or you will be considered

00:15:02.380 unjabbed,

00:15:03.620 just like the dirty people

00:15:05.320 they've been pushing

00:15:06.560 and punishing

00:15:07.840 for the past year.

00:15:09.100 The only question is,

00:15:10.840 are we that submissive

00:15:13.100 and obedient

00:15:13.600 that we'll get back

00:15:14.360 on this?

00:15:15.600 Are we that

00:15:16.460 Canadian?

00:15:17.940 or do we have

00:15:19.860 even a drop

00:15:20.780 of that American spirit

00:15:22.160 of don't tread on me?

00:15:25.800 Stay with me for more.

00:15:26.960 Well, happy Independence Day

00:15:40.020 to our American friends

00:15:40.980 the 4th of July.

00:15:42.240 July 1st

00:15:42.920 is our National Day,

00:15:44.440 Dominion Day

00:15:44.920 as it was once known,

00:15:45.900 Canada Day

00:15:46.380 as it's popularly called now.

00:15:48.760 It's a day normally

00:15:50.040 with celebration

00:15:51.040 where the Parliament Hill

00:15:52.360 itself

00:15:52.800 is the focus

00:15:53.820 of the activities.

00:15:54.820 However, Parliament Hill

00:15:55.820 was locked down.

00:15:57.560 They had police-style,

00:15:59.420 airport-style security.

00:16:01.520 Here's a video

00:16:02.560 published by Roman Babber

00:16:04.820 showing a child

00:16:07.220 being frisked for what?

00:16:09.780 For weapons?

00:16:11.240 For flags?

00:16:12.280 I say that because

00:16:13.200 actually we have on tape

00:16:14.920 police saying

00:16:16.120 you were not allowed

00:16:17.040 to bring flags

00:16:18.580 onto Parliament Hill.

00:16:19.940 I know you don't believe me.

00:16:21.100 Watch the tape.

00:16:21.800 It's like a checkpoint

00:16:23.020 that needs to enter Parliament.

00:16:24.200 No, it's just for sure

00:16:25.280 that you don't have a pen.

00:16:26.640 Okay, that's good.

00:16:27.280 We don't have the right

00:16:28.320 to enter with a pen.

00:16:30.520 Well, there are

00:16:31.280 limitations on what

00:16:32.380 you can take.

00:16:32.820 We don't want

00:16:33.820 objects that can be

00:16:36.820 in the world.

00:16:37.720 Okay, that's good.

00:16:39.020 So it is pretty surprising

00:16:40.100 that I was told

00:16:40.620 by the security guard

00:16:41.440 that you are not allowed

00:16:42.280 to bring a flag

00:16:44.120 on Canada

00:16:44.720 on the day

00:16:45.140 that you are supposed

00:16:45.940 to celebrate

00:16:46.700 the Canadian flag.

00:16:47.920 This is just ridiculous.

00:17:08.240 This is just ridiculous.

00:17:12.420 Just ridiculous.

00:17:13.340 So that was the approach

00:17:22.020 to Canada Day

00:17:23.280 in the nation's capital

00:17:24.440 on Parliament Hill,

00:17:25.940 a place that is normally

00:17:26.920 full of 50, 100,000, 200,000.

00:17:30.260 I've been in Ottawa

00:17:31.120 on Canada Day.

00:17:32.440 It is madness

00:17:33.220 and it is joyful.

00:17:34.920 Not over this weekend.

00:17:36.640 Parliament Hill

00:17:37.120 was locked down

00:17:37.900 as I just showed you.

00:17:39.360 Trudeau had a smaller event

00:17:41.200 somewhat further away.

00:17:42.980 A grand total of, what,

00:17:44.460 maybe 5,000 people.

00:17:46.560 A low energy affair

00:17:47.960 and incredibly,

00:17:49.400 the crowd actually

00:17:50.220 was not allowed

00:17:50.900 to have any flags near him.

00:17:53.040 I don't know.

00:17:53.380 Maybe they thought

00:17:53.860 they would be some weapon.

00:17:55.160 Take a look

00:17:55.580 at this low energy business.

00:17:57.060 Thank you.

00:18:11.200 It's very strange.

00:18:37.520 It's incredible

00:18:38.260 how the freedom protesters

00:18:40.140 and the trucker protesters

00:18:41.500 from January and February

00:18:42.920 managed to inspire

00:18:45.600 and take over

00:18:46.760 the national symbols

00:18:48.240 of freedom.

00:18:48.920 I can never forget

00:18:49.960 walking down Spark Street

00:18:51.140 in the bloody cold

00:18:52.500 back then

00:18:53.160 and just watching

00:18:54.220 two severely normal Canadians

00:18:55.860 suddenly burst out

00:18:57.440 in song

00:18:58.220 and the song they chose

00:18:59.260 was O Canada.

00:19:00.580 Have you ever seen that

00:19:01.540 in your life?

00:19:02.100 I saw it

00:19:03.000 at the trucker rebellion

00:19:04.560 in January and February.

00:19:05.960 And so I think there's

00:19:07.080 an actual purposeful reason

00:19:09.060 why Justin Trudeau

00:19:10.680 is diminishing

00:19:11.540 any patriotic expressions.

00:19:13.880 I mean,

00:19:14.180 he himself has called Canada

00:19:15.740 a genocidal regime

00:19:17.700 so he's not particularly

00:19:18.580 proud of it to begin with.

00:19:19.720 But I think the truckers

00:19:21.460 have colonized

00:19:23.740 the flag and the anthem

00:19:25.020 so much so that

00:19:25.740 a lot of the lefties

00:19:26.560 don't like to celebrate it.

00:19:28.420 That's a long preamble

00:19:29.780 to what I'm about to show you

00:19:31.200 because there were people

00:19:33.000 on Parliament Hill

00:19:33.820 they were these

00:19:34.640 rough and tumble

00:19:35.660 freedom-oriented protesters

00:19:37.760 that the mainstream media

00:19:38.940 and the political

00:19:40.320 establishment hates.

00:19:41.800 Well, we had five

00:19:43.120 reporters on the scene

00:19:44.380 and I'm very proud

00:19:45.020 of the journalism they did

00:19:46.080 because we were

00:19:46.660 watching what this

00:19:48.800 Echo Freedom Rally

00:19:50.740 was doing and saying

00:19:51.900 but there were also

00:19:52.800 lawyers there

00:19:53.860 from our friends

00:19:54.400 at the Democracy Fund

00:19:55.460 and the reason for that

00:19:57.240 is of course

00:19:58.160 Justin Trudeau

00:19:59.160 and the Ottawa police

00:20:00.360 are very hostile

00:20:01.220 to peaceful expressions

00:20:03.000 of dissent

00:20:03.940 and as you know

00:20:05.640 they declared

00:20:06.300 the Emergencies Act

00:20:07.280 in the form of martial law

00:20:08.400 in February

00:20:09.400 seized bank accounts

00:20:10.600 they were the violent ones

00:20:12.720 there were no charges

00:20:13.900 of violence at all

00:20:15.160 with any of the truckers

00:20:16.160 no weapons ever found

00:20:17.280 it was the most peaceful protest

00:20:18.480 I think one of the iconic images

00:20:19.920 were the bouncy castles

00:20:21.060 in the hot tub

00:20:21.760 but Trudeau responded

00:20:23.880 with riot police

00:20:24.720 so we had our friends

00:20:26.160 at the Democracy Fund

00:20:27.260 nearby in case

00:20:28.440 we got into a pickle

00:20:29.340 and they were there

00:20:29.840 to help all Canadians too

00:20:31.840 well you're not going

00:20:33.520 to believe what happened

00:20:34.180 take a look at this video

00:20:35.340 from Parliament Hill

00:20:36.580 you'll see Rebel News

00:20:38.060 reporters there

00:20:38.780 and you will see

00:20:39.680 lawyers from the Democracy Fund

00:20:42.360 including Adam Blake-Galipo

00:20:44.180 and Mark Joseph

00:20:44.820 take a look

00:20:45.200 so you're the Democracy Fund

00:20:46.700 you guys fight for people

00:20:48.740 in order to defend

00:20:49.560 their charter rights

00:20:50.860 and their constitutional

00:20:51.640 constitutional freedoms

00:20:53.080 right

00:20:53.500 and currently

00:20:54.340 you are being approached

00:20:55.540 by the police

00:20:56.360 because you are allegedly

00:20:58.360 blocking a sidewalk

00:21:00.780 is that what's happening?

00:21:01.880 yeah pretty much

00:21:02.720 yeah

00:21:02.940 we're the Democracy Fund

00:21:04.100 so we're a civil society organization

00:21:06.580 we're a donation based charity

00:21:08.240 and we help people

00:21:09.980 who have had their

00:21:10.820 civil rights infringed

00:21:12.200 and ironically

00:21:13.380 the police are telling us

00:21:15.020 that we are not allowed

00:21:16.860 to have a sign

00:21:17.740 on the sidewalk

00:21:18.500 letting people know

00:21:20.900 that they have

00:21:21.440 constitutional rights

00:21:22.680 to freely speak

00:21:25.200 and to assemble

00:21:26.260 so that's where we stand

00:21:27.980 but apparently Adam

00:21:28.840 yeah exactly

00:21:30.360 so what was the interaction

00:21:31.860 with the police

00:21:32.320 what happened there?

00:21:33.300 essentially we were told

00:21:34.600 that we have five minutes

00:21:35.800 to move our sign

00:21:38.800 we have to keep it moving

00:21:40.580 we're permitted to continue

00:21:42.500 displaying this sign

00:21:43.700 but we have to lift it up

00:21:44.800 and continue moving

00:21:46.960 I don't know where

00:21:48.240 the five minute timeline

00:21:49.560 came in

00:21:50.460 that's what they're giving us

00:21:51.320 prior to giving us

00:21:52.600 a $1,000 ticket

00:21:54.520 we were shown

00:21:56.000 the bylaw

00:21:57.100 that they're referring to

00:21:58.200 because we don't have a permit

00:21:59.240 they're alleging

00:22:00.240 that we are obstructing

00:22:01.420 the sidewalk here

00:22:02.400 which I mean

00:22:03.040 you can see

00:22:04.120 like you know

00:22:05.080 you can see

00:22:05.840 we're not obstructing anything

00:22:07.280 yeah we don't see

00:22:07.580 you're obstructing anyone

00:22:08.440 I see people walking

00:22:09.320 waiting beside us

00:22:10.580 no but nonetheless

00:22:12.180 their statement is

00:22:13.840 that they want us

00:22:15.780 to move this sign around

00:22:18.020 we can continue displaying it

00:22:20.020 apparently

00:22:20.820 as long as

00:22:22.180 we move it back and forth

00:22:24.520 so that is exactly

00:22:25.500 what we were going to do

00:22:26.540 we're going to lift it up

00:22:27.540 we're going to move it

00:22:28.560 we're going to keep it

00:22:29.280 on our shoes

00:22:30.560 so that it is technically

00:22:32.060 not on the ground

00:22:32.820 and we are technically

00:22:33.980 not obstructing

00:22:34.980 and I anticipate

00:22:35.940 that we'll have

00:22:36.540 some more interactions

00:22:37.380 with the Ottawa police

00:22:39.320 prior to the end of the evening

00:22:41.240 so what you're going to do

00:22:42.520 you're going to take it

00:22:43.400 and basically comply

00:22:44.340 and walk in with it

00:22:45.200 that's right

00:22:45.880 yeah that's right

00:22:46.540 I mean

00:22:47.000 you know

00:22:47.820 they said that

00:22:48.980 they're going to ticket us

00:22:50.240 and we're going to see

00:22:52.620 yeah

00:22:53.340 we're going to

00:22:54.200 we're going to

00:22:55.060 obey their commands

00:22:56.660 and see where

00:22:58.680 where they stand

00:23:00.680 provided we follow

00:23:01.780 their directions

00:23:02.440 which was essentially

00:23:03.940 we need to just move

00:23:05.100 with the sign

00:23:05.680 which I didn't see

00:23:06.760 that in their bylaw

00:23:07.720 but that's what

00:23:10.000 they've told us

00:23:10.780 so folks

00:23:11.440 some lawyers

00:23:12.140 that are here

00:23:13.180 to fight

00:23:13.740 for constitutional freedoms

00:23:15.660 have been approached

00:23:17.320 by the police

00:23:18.060 saying that

00:23:18.740 they cannot stay here

00:23:20.000 to fight

00:23:20.840 for other people's

00:23:21.820 constitutional freedom

00:23:22.780 absolutely ridiculous

00:23:24.300 we're going to see

00:23:25.180 what's happened

00:23:25.560 once again

00:23:26.320 another time today

00:23:27.080 I will tell you

00:23:27.640 stay tuned

00:23:28.140 we will make sure

00:23:28.880 to keep you updated

00:23:29.560 at Rebel News

00:23:30.280 well I love

00:23:31.400 our young reporter

00:23:32.160 William Diaz Bertil

00:23:33.940 and joining me

00:23:35.460 in studio

00:23:36.000 as you can see

00:23:36.800 is one of the two lawyers

00:23:37.880 for the Democracy Fund

00:23:38.740 who was on the scene

00:23:39.560 his name is Mark Joseph

00:23:40.700 Mark great to see you

00:23:41.420 thanks for coming in

00:23:42.080 thanks for having me

00:23:42.860 you know

00:23:43.660 it sounded absurd

00:23:46.100 you can hold the sign

00:23:47.320 but not if it's on the ground

00:23:48.540 you can put it on your feet

00:23:49.720 you can hold it

00:23:50.720 but you have to move with it

00:23:51.940 and it just sounded

00:23:52.840 so made up

00:23:54.020 so absurd

00:23:54.720 as Adam said

00:23:55.620 there was nothing

00:23:56.120 in the bylaw

00:23:56.660 about touching the ground

00:23:57.520 touching your feet

00:23:58.240 this is pure

00:24:00.580 capricious

00:24:01.780 wielding of power

00:24:03.220 just to be a bully

00:24:04.480 it just couldn't

00:24:05.480 be clearer to me

00:24:06.260 yeah I mean

00:24:07.560 it was a little

00:24:07.980 disheartening

00:24:08.440 to be there

00:24:08.840 on Canada Day

00:24:09.580 to celebrate democracy

00:24:11.300 and then be told

00:24:12.220 that you can't

00:24:12.940 hold a sign

00:24:13.620 celebrating democracy

00:24:14.580 that was a little

00:24:15.260 yeah the sign

00:24:16.040 literally says

00:24:16.700 strengthening democracy

00:24:17.640 there's nothing

00:24:18.140 partisan about it

00:24:19.180 it's a non-partisan charity

00:24:20.500 strengthening democracy

00:24:21.800 and you were there

00:24:22.520 to do what

00:24:22.980 to give advice

00:24:23.600 on how to

00:24:24.100 be a peaceful

00:24:24.840 protester

00:24:25.420 and deal with the law

00:24:26.160 right

00:24:26.400 yeah that's right

00:24:27.000 we were legal observers

00:24:27.960 charter scrutineers

00:24:28.860 we were giving

00:24:29.380 general legal information

00:24:30.580 with respect to

00:24:31.080 constitutional rights

00:24:32.220 that everyone

00:24:32.820 in Canada has

00:24:33.620 we weren't certainly

00:24:35.560 promoting

00:24:37.220 aggressively promoting

00:24:38.340 anything

00:24:38.720 we were waiting

00:24:39.300 for people to

00:24:39.840 approach us

00:24:40.400 and we would

00:24:40.840 discuss the charter

00:24:41.620 with them

00:24:42.040 you know I have

00:24:43.560 been

00:24:44.300 the first time

00:24:45.240 I went to Ottawa

00:24:45.940 I was a very young man

00:24:47.860 I've probably been

00:24:48.760 I mean I lived there

00:24:49.520 for a while

00:24:49.960 I've been there

00:24:50.340 countless times

00:24:51.020 there is always

00:24:52.040 someone with a sign

00:24:52.940 sometimes the signs

00:24:55.040 make no sense

00:24:55.720 sometimes the signs

00:24:56.620 are gruesome

00:24:57.320 images

00:24:57.940 they're often

00:24:59.960 political

00:25:00.400 I have never

00:25:01.080 in my life

00:25:01.820 heard police

00:25:03.380 before saying

00:25:04.280 you must get

00:25:05.720 rid of this sign

00:25:06.680 I just have

00:25:07.300 never heard it

00:25:08.220 and for them

00:25:11.000 to pick on

00:25:11.720 a sign

00:25:12.180 that's so clearly

00:25:12.960 in the public

00:25:14.160 interest

00:25:14.720 good faith

00:25:15.480 you guys are so

00:25:16.260 obviously lawyers

00:25:17.000 you were dressed up

00:25:17.780 as lawyers

00:25:18.260 I mean

00:25:18.560 you weren't

00:25:19.940 it didn't say

00:25:20.720 burn the place

00:25:21.500 down

00:25:21.980 or there was

00:25:22.620 nothing profane

00:25:23.480 about it

00:25:24.080 that was just

00:25:25.640 a power trip

00:25:26.200 by a cop

00:25:26.720 I think

00:25:28.360 there's something

00:25:29.440 deeply wrong

00:25:30.160 with what we just saw

00:25:30.920 Adam was making

00:25:31.780 light of it

00:25:32.480 you know

00:25:32.960 I mean

00:25:33.180 the solution

00:25:33.960 you guys had

00:25:34.680 let's walk with it

00:25:35.560 alright

00:25:36.160 but

00:25:36.500 that's humorous

00:25:38.780 in a way

00:25:39.220 but it is not

00:25:40.300 a funny thing

00:25:40.840 that happened

00:25:41.340 yeah

00:25:42.180 I mean

00:25:42.460 it was

00:25:42.760 comical

00:25:43.480 I think

00:25:43.820 at the end

00:25:44.260 I think

00:25:44.800 the police

00:25:45.300 and ourselves

00:25:46.100 and the people

00:25:46.640 watching

00:25:47.120 thought it was

00:25:48.100 kind of silly

00:25:49.140 but you're right

00:25:50.180 I think it points

00:25:50.860 to something

00:25:51.500 dysfunctional

00:25:52.720 in Canadian

00:25:54.220 sort of society

00:25:55.820 where lawyers

00:25:57.800 can't discuss

00:25:58.900 charter rights

00:26:00.440 on a corner

00:26:01.440 of a street

00:26:02.980 that's completely

00:26:03.600 blocked off

00:26:04.300 to traffic

00:26:04.920 with their fellow

00:26:06.520 Canadians

00:26:06.900 that I think

00:26:07.720 is a little

00:26:08.080 disturbing

00:26:08.480 well

00:26:09.400 there's a reason

00:26:10.100 I don't practice

00:26:10.880 law

00:26:11.280 and there's a number

00:26:11.820 of reasons

00:26:12.180 one is

00:26:12.620 I don't think

00:26:13.220 I have the patience

00:26:13.900 and I'm not

00:26:15.800 very strong

00:26:16.840 on the paperwork

00:26:17.380 side

00:26:17.800 the second is

00:26:18.640 I think I'm

00:26:19.340 slightly too

00:26:20.040 rambunctious

00:26:20.780 at least

00:26:21.720 these days

00:26:22.380 when I saw

00:26:24.160 that

00:26:24.440 and I'm not

00:26:24.860 trying to

00:26:25.160 second guess

00:26:25.680 you

00:26:25.780 I'm just

00:26:26.020 trying to

00:26:26.360 tell you

00:26:26.660 what my

00:26:26.980 reaction was

00:26:27.660 and I'd like

00:26:28.340 you to

00:26:28.640 answer

00:26:29.360 what you

00:26:29.800 think of

00:26:30.140 this

00:26:30.380 my

00:26:31.740 instinct

00:26:32.920 was

00:26:33.440 I mean

00:26:33.980 Adam said

00:26:34.840 okay

00:26:35.060 and you guys

00:26:35.860 decided

00:26:36.280 you're going

00:26:36.780 to comply

00:26:37.240 because you

00:26:37.860 don't want

00:26:38.120 the hassle

00:26:38.540 you don't

00:26:38.860 want to be

00:26:39.260 arrested

00:26:39.660 you don't

00:26:40.020 want the

00:26:40.440 conflagration

00:26:41.180 and you'll

00:26:42.040 just do

00:26:42.360 the stupid

00:26:42.760 thing that

00:26:43.140 they asked

00:26:43.520 but why

00:26:45.340 would you

00:26:47.080 and I'm

00:26:47.520 just

00:26:47.680 I'm not

00:26:48.520 trying to be

00:26:48.880 a Monday

00:26:49.160 morning quarterback

00:26:49.780 I'm just

00:26:50.240 thinking

00:26:50.520 if I had

00:26:51.600 actually been

00:26:52.220 there

00:26:52.520 I would have

00:26:53.880 said you're

00:26:54.300 seriously going

00:26:54.960 to arrest

00:26:55.680 or take it

00:26:56.320 civil liberties

00:26:57.600 lawyers giving

00:26:58.300 civil liberties

00:26:59.100 law

00:26:59.500 and you think

00:27:01.180 a prosecutor

00:27:02.000 is going to

00:27:02.360 prosecute this

00:27:03.100 and you think

00:27:03.440 a judge is

00:27:03.880 going to

00:27:04.060 uphold this

00:27:04.740 and we're

00:27:05.920 filming everything

00:27:06.620 so it's not

00:27:07.400 like you can

00:27:07.880 make a lie

00:27:08.380 about our

00:27:08.800 bad behavior

00:27:09.540 I dare you

00:27:11.100 to be a

00:27:12.400 Putin style

00:27:13.440 bully

00:27:14.340 go ahead

00:27:15.380 and arrest

00:27:15.840 me what's

00:27:16.340 your name

00:27:16.660 and badge

00:27:17.100 number

00:27:17.400 because we're

00:27:17.980 going to get

00:27:18.240 to know each

00:27:18.620 other I

00:27:18.860 would have

00:27:19.120 had an

00:27:19.400 aggressive

00:27:19.880 I mean

00:27:21.440 not rude

00:27:22.840 and not

00:27:23.320 threatening

00:27:23.900 but I would

00:27:24.380 have said

00:27:24.680 bring it

00:27:25.240 on you

00:27:26.120 little fascist

00:27:27.180 if you want

00:27:27.980 to give me

00:27:28.320 a ticket

00:27:28.760 for giving

00:27:29.520 free legal

00:27:30.380 services

00:27:30.900 that's something

00:27:31.900 that the courts

00:27:32.520 ought to know

00:27:33.080 about

00:27:33.400 we'll see you

00:27:34.400 in court

00:27:34.820 baby

00:27:35.180 I mean

00:27:35.640 I probably

00:27:36.040 would have

00:27:36.300 sworn

00:27:36.540 that's what

00:27:37.100 I would have

00:27:37.520 done

00:27:37.780 and I'm

00:27:38.800 not

00:27:39.000 so what

00:27:39.920 is that

00:27:40.860 too hot

00:27:41.340 or are you

00:27:41.640 just thinking

00:27:42.060 don't get

00:27:42.740 kicked out of

00:27:43.240 here just

00:27:43.600 still be

00:27:43.980 useful

00:27:44.240 still talk

00:27:44.800 to people

00:27:45.240 well look

00:27:46.340 I think

00:27:46.660 there's a time

00:27:47.160 and place

00:27:47.620 for that

00:27:48.200 passion

00:27:49.340 and we see

00:27:50.320 that a lot

00:27:50.940 of times

00:27:51.300 in other

00:27:51.860 countries

00:27:52.340 but I think

00:27:53.660 as lawyers

00:27:54.200 we don't want

00:27:55.140 to be seen

00:27:55.600 as defying

00:27:56.300 the law

00:27:56.820 that explicitly

00:27:58.240 directly

00:27:58.860 I think

00:27:59.320 it undermines

00:28:00.180 the larger

00:28:00.960 mandate of TDF

00:28:02.020 certainly it

00:28:03.740 crossed our minds

00:28:04.580 that this

00:28:05.840 wasn't right

00:28:06.620 usually the police

00:28:08.080 have the discretion

00:28:09.000 to exercise

00:28:10.420 in favor

00:28:11.660 of protesters

00:28:12.800 peaceful

00:28:13.480 protesters

00:28:14.400 in this case

00:28:15.080 and I think

00:28:16.120 we felt

00:28:16.580 that some

00:28:17.220 of that

00:28:17.440 discretion

00:28:17.880 has been

00:28:18.320 removed

00:28:18.740 from the

00:28:19.720 police officer

00:28:20.420 on the ground

00:28:20.920 for whatever

00:28:21.440 reason

00:28:21.800 so now

00:28:22.600 they just

00:28:23.140 arbitrarily

00:28:23.920 enforce

00:28:24.420 or blanket

00:28:25.200 enforce

00:28:25.720 these petty

00:28:26.460 bylaws

00:28:26.960 I think

00:28:27.520 to get rid

00:28:28.300 of the

00:28:28.520 dissent

00:28:28.920 I hear

00:28:29.420 what you're

00:28:29.700 saying

00:28:29.940 because lawyers

00:28:30.500 don't

00:28:30.820 you don't

00:28:31.320 want to

00:28:31.560 become

00:28:31.900 you want

00:28:32.200 to be

00:28:32.320 the agents

00:28:32.980 and the

00:28:33.300 advocates

00:28:33.800 for others

00:28:34.740 you don't

00:28:35.080 want to be

00:28:35.480 the center

00:28:35.940 of the story

00:28:36.400 yourselves

00:28:37.040 that's right

00:28:38.180 but they

00:28:38.560 made you

00:28:38.980 the center

00:28:39.380 of the story

00:28:39.960 which is

00:28:40.760 quite something

00:28:41.260 to go

00:28:41.580 after the

00:28:42.040 civil liberties

00:28:42.480 lawyers

00:28:42.820 the audacity

00:28:44.880 there

00:28:45.160 you got

00:28:45.540 full marks

00:28:47.040 full marks

00:28:47.680 to them

00:28:48.100 but if you're

00:28:50.200 saying they

00:28:50.560 were relying

00:28:51.640 on orders

00:28:52.320 from higher

00:28:52.800 up

00:28:53.000 well that

00:28:53.240 would be

00:28:53.600 something

00:28:54.620 interesting

00:28:55.100 to smoke

00:28:55.560 out

00:28:55.840 hey I

00:28:56.480 want to

00:28:56.860 ask you

00:28:57.720 about one

00:28:58.040 of the

00:28:58.240 cases you

00:28:58.700 did take

00:28:59.320 again I

00:29:00.540 just love

00:29:00.980 our young

00:29:01.360 reporter

00:29:01.720 there

00:29:03.500 he operates

00:29:04.200 in English

00:29:05.400 and French

00:29:06.280 and he

00:29:06.760 speaks Spanish

00:29:07.500 too

00:29:07.740 he's a

00:29:08.020 triple threat

00:29:08.460 this is a

00:29:11.240 video that

00:29:11.660 speaks for

00:29:12.020 itself

00:29:12.280 also

00:29:12.880 there were

00:29:14.180 some

00:29:14.540 I don't even

00:29:15.940 know if I

00:29:16.300 would call

00:29:16.700 this civil

00:29:17.240 disobedience

00:29:18.000 there were

00:29:18.800 some folks

00:29:19.280 there who

00:29:19.580 wrote in

00:29:20.240 chalk

00:29:20.920 and baking

00:29:22.040 soda

00:29:22.800 or baking

00:29:23.280 powder

00:29:23.560 so it

00:29:23.860 wasn't

00:29:24.260 it wasn't

00:29:24.960 indelible

00:29:25.500 paint from

00:29:26.220 what I

00:29:26.560 heard

00:29:26.940 wrote in

00:29:28.460 chalk on

00:29:28.960 the street

00:29:29.380 like kids

00:29:30.120 writing

00:29:30.460 hopscotch

00:29:34.940 the

00:29:35.420 Métis

00:29:35.780 grandma

00:29:36.140 who

00:29:36.580 helped

00:29:37.600 lead

00:29:37.860 the

00:29:38.060 convoy

00:29:38.760 and the

00:29:39.680 cops

00:29:40.120 gave him

00:29:41.120 a fine

00:29:41.860 of

00:29:42.920 $1130

00:29:43.920 here I

00:29:44.740 just want

00:29:45.140 to show

00:29:45.480 you this

00:29:45.820 it's only

00:29:46.360 a few

00:29:46.660 minutes

00:29:46.920 look at

00:29:47.700 this

00:29:47.960 video

00:29:48.460 of the

00:29:50.080 kind of

00:29:50.560 weird

00:29:50.860 civil liberties

00:29:51.480 crackdown

00:29:52.140 there was

00:29:52.880 on Canada

00:29:53.440 take a

00:29:53.920 look

00:29:54.220 William

00:29:54.760 D.S.

00:29:55.060 here with

00:29:55.240 Rebel News

00:29:55.700 so currently

00:29:56.660 right behind

00:29:57.400 you it is

00:29:57.940 written on

00:29:58.640 the ground

00:29:59.040 in chalk

00:30:00.000 and

00:30:00.260 cornstache

00:30:01.540 free

00:30:02.620 Tamara

00:30:03.080 Leach

00:30:03.440 political

00:30:04.020 prisoner

00:30:04.560 and according

00:30:05.660 to the police

00:30:06.220 right here

00:30:06.620 well that

00:30:07.000 deserves

00:30:07.320 an arrest

00:30:07.820 talking about

00:30:09.440 politics

00:30:09.980 and writing

00:30:10.460 about politics

00:30:11.080 on the ground

00:30:11.560 deserves

00:30:12.380 an apprehension

00:30:13.880 but would you

00:30:15.160 apprehend a

00:30:15.740 six-year-old

00:30:16.520 riding on the

00:30:17.800 ground and

00:30:18.180 just having

00:30:18.860 some fun

00:30:19.460 on the street

00:30:20.080 I don't think

00:30:20.980 so and

00:30:21.720 where was the

00:30:22.600 police two

00:30:23.240 years ago

00:30:23.800 when protesters

00:30:25.020 were riding

00:30:25.620 BLM

00:30:26.280 on the ground

00:30:27.120 in front of

00:30:27.460 Parliament as

00:30:27.940 well I

00:30:28.720 didn't think

00:30:29.160 they were

00:30:29.420 there

00:30:29.740 so it's

00:30:30.560 absolutely

00:30:30.880 ridiculous

00:30:31.400 Trudeau's

00:30:31.860 police

00:30:32.220 most probably

00:30:33.080 sent his

00:30:33.680 cops

00:30:34.080 to come

00:30:35.000 and descend

00:30:35.940 on people

00:30:36.620 talking about

00:30:37.160 politics

00:30:37.540 so stay

00:30:38.260 tuned

00:30:38.460 and try

00:30:38.700 to figure

00:30:38.940 out what

00:30:39.220 happened

00:30:39.600 oh sir

00:30:40.480 hi

00:30:41.100 can you

00:30:42.440 can you

00:30:42.740 explain to

00:30:43.080 me what

00:30:43.300 happened

00:30:43.720 I was

00:30:45.080 helping

00:30:45.500 I was

00:30:47.300 helping

00:30:47.600 write

00:30:48.160 Free

00:30:49.140 Tamera

00:30:49.560 Free

00:30:49.860 Pat

00:30:50.220 King

00:30:50.580 political

00:30:51.120 prisoners

00:30:51.660 across

00:30:52.460 Wellington

00:30:52.900 Street

00:30:53.300 and I

00:30:54.100 was pulled

00:30:54.420 over

00:30:54.740 and given

00:30:55.300 a fine

00:30:55.760 of 1130

00:30:56.900 dollars

00:30:57.360 what did

00:30:57.640 you use

00:30:58.040 to write

00:30:59.160 that on

00:30:59.460 the streets

00:30:59.780 chalk

00:31:00.340 so it's

00:31:01.500 erasable

00:31:01.960 yes

00:31:02.400 rain will

00:31:03.680 wash it

00:31:04.060 right off

00:31:04.540 how much

00:31:05.060 will your

00:31:05.360 fine be

00:31:05.760 1130

00:31:07.040 dollars

00:31:07.500 that's with

00:31:08.400 victim surcharge

00:31:09.340 I believe

00:31:09.780 what did the

00:31:10.780 police tell you

00:31:11.460 concretely about

00:31:12.720 why they

00:31:13.560 apprehended you

00:31:14.420 they actually

00:31:16.660 talked to me

00:31:17.240 because I was

00:31:18.000 in the midst

00:31:18.280 of finishing

00:31:19.220 the ass

00:31:19.760 and said

00:31:20.720 you gotta

00:31:21.280 come to

00:31:21.620 talk to

00:31:21.940 me

00:31:22.120 and they

00:31:23.680 figured they

00:31:24.280 would be

00:31:24.380 able to

00:31:24.640 give me

00:31:24.840 a fine

00:31:25.200 instead of

00:31:25.580 criminal

00:31:25.900 charge

00:31:26.220 me

00:31:26.460 with

00:31:26.680 criminal

00:31:27.280 mischief

00:31:27.700 because I

00:31:28.220 explained to

00:31:28.680 them that

00:31:28.880 it was not

00:31:29.180 paint

00:31:29.500 that it was

00:31:30.260 actually chalk

00:31:30.940 and it was

00:31:31.260 washable

00:31:31.660 well

00:31:32.760 you guys

00:31:33.820 were on

00:31:34.040 the scene

00:31:34.460 and so you

00:31:34.980 were able

00:31:35.380 to meet

00:31:36.100 that guy

00:31:36.540 pretty quickly

00:31:37.220 and we

00:31:37.640 set up

00:31:37.940 a quick

00:31:38.380 website

00:31:39.300 protestlawyers.com

00:31:42.980 to help

00:31:43.360 this guy

00:31:43.780 defend his

00:31:44.340 right to

00:31:44.960 protest

00:31:45.280 I mean I'm

00:31:45.720 not sure

00:31:46.220 if I would

00:31:47.200 want someone

00:31:47.900 putting chalk

00:31:48.540 on my

00:31:49.220 private property

00:31:50.120 but that's a

00:31:50.600 whole different

00:31:50.920 kettle of fish

00:31:51.600 if you're on

00:31:52.680 public streets

00:31:53.920 with chalk

00:31:54.760 it's going to

00:31:55.420 be washed

00:31:55.840 away in the

00:31:56.260 next rain

00:31:56.980 you know what

00:31:59.940 I'm not sure

00:32:00.840 if I would

00:32:01.240 want everyone

00:32:02.180 to be doing

00:32:02.640 that all the

00:32:03.100 time

00:32:03.420 but to give

00:32:04.240 a guy

00:32:04.520 a $1,130

00:32:05.740 fine

00:32:06.560 feels a bit

00:32:07.700 much

00:32:08.160 for something

00:32:09.000 that's actually

00:32:09.580 a fairly

00:32:10.300 common form

00:32:11.000 of protest

00:32:11.500 the government

00:32:12.160 itself does

00:32:12.900 that

00:32:13.180 Black Lives

00:32:13.980 Matter

00:32:14.360 does street

00:32:15.080 chalk

00:32:15.720 a lot

00:32:16.920 of pride

00:32:17.680 things

00:32:18.540 in chalk

00:32:19.580 on the

00:32:19.920 street

00:32:20.260 you know

00:32:22.620 what

00:32:22.740 if it's

00:32:23.080 done in

00:32:23.400 chalk

00:32:23.600 it's going

00:32:23.900 to be

00:32:24.040 washed

00:32:24.300 away

00:32:24.500 I really

00:32:25.520 think

00:32:25.960 that that

00:32:26.340 again

00:32:26.760 is

00:32:27.440 an

00:32:28.460 obsessive

00:32:29.660 overweening

00:32:31.300 authoritarian

00:32:32.360 government

00:32:33.060 I mean

00:32:33.380 it was just

00:32:34.360 chalk

00:32:34.660 for

00:32:34.860 Cronulla

00:32:35.280 yeah

00:32:36.360 that was

00:32:36.720 a little

00:32:36.960 odd

00:32:37.340 to us

00:32:37.900 I mean

00:32:38.200 they also

00:32:38.880 had

00:32:39.200 referenced

00:32:39.860 the mayor

00:32:41.200 of Ottawa

00:32:41.620 and the police

00:32:42.300 had referenced

00:32:42.740 increase

00:32:43.280 in fines

00:32:44.760 for shouting

00:32:45.680 and unusual

00:32:46.940 noise

00:32:47.620 unusual

00:32:48.100 noise

00:32:48.420 what's that

00:32:48.920 like

00:32:49.140 if you have

00:32:50.400 a big

00:32:50.760 hiccup

00:32:51.580 or something

00:32:52.300 what's an

00:32:52.720 unusual noise

00:32:53.480 like I know

00:32:54.060 is a usual

00:32:55.120 noise okay

00:32:55.860 but if it's

00:32:56.540 unusual

00:32:57.020 it's not okay

00:32:57.980 right

00:32:58.780 that's unusual

00:32:59.860 that's bizarre

00:33:00.700 what does that

00:33:01.040 even mean

00:33:01.540 how do you know

00:33:02.280 if you're being

00:33:02.760 usual or unusual

00:33:03.720 that's right

00:33:04.420 I mean

00:33:04.640 that's the

00:33:04.900 definition

00:33:05.200 of a

00:33:05.500 celebration

00:33:05.900 you make

00:33:06.320 you shout

00:33:06.800 and you make

00:33:07.120 unusual noises

00:33:07.800 and sometimes

00:33:08.500 they're usually

00:33:08.860 hooray

00:33:09.540 but what if

00:33:10.240 what if you

00:33:10.920 do something

00:33:11.780 unusual

00:33:12.140 like

00:33:12.500 yabba-dabba-doo

00:33:13.460 right

00:33:14.460 in law

00:33:14.980 we call that

00:33:15.480 a linguistically

00:33:16.140 problematic

00:33:17.020 bylaw

00:33:18.540 so

00:33:18.900 if you can't

00:33:20.120 understand the law

00:33:20.800 how can you

00:33:21.220 follow the law

00:33:21.780 that's right

00:33:22.200 that's right

00:33:23.100 yeah

00:33:23.720 so the

00:33:24.400 painting

00:33:25.300 on the roadway

00:33:26.740 as you say

00:33:27.560 I can see

00:33:27.980 normally

00:33:28.320 that might be

00:33:28.820 a problem

00:33:29.100 you don't want

00:33:29.420 to confuse

00:33:29.900 drivers

00:33:31.040 with conflicting

00:33:32.720 lines

00:33:33.700 but this

00:33:34.400 again

00:33:34.700 this roadway

00:33:35.400 was blocked

00:33:35.860 off to traffic

00:33:36.580 so there's

00:33:37.600 no danger

00:33:37.980 of that

00:33:38.440 and it seemed

00:33:39.220 to me

00:33:39.480 like they were

00:33:39.900 punishing

00:33:40.260 disfavored

00:33:40.860 political speech

00:33:41.740 that's what

00:33:42.440 it seemed

00:33:42.820 like to me

00:33:43.260 but TDF

00:33:43.780 has offered

00:33:44.120 to take

00:33:44.480 that ticket

00:33:44.900 so we'll

00:33:45.300 see where

00:33:45.640 that goes

00:33:46.000 yeah

00:33:46.260 you know

00:33:47.240 back to the

00:33:48.240 bylaw

00:33:48.500 for a moment

00:33:49.220 there was

00:33:49.840 all sorts

00:33:50.160 of weird

00:33:50.640 tweets

00:33:51.080 and I

00:33:51.900 don't like

00:33:52.540 it when

00:33:52.860 police have

00:33:53.520 strong opinions

00:33:54.240 on things

00:33:54.840 if police

00:33:56.060 are using

00:33:56.480 Twitter

00:33:56.840 I want to

00:33:57.640 know some

00:33:58.280 facts

00:33:58.680 like there's

00:33:59.060 a shooting

00:33:59.440 here

00:33:59.800 or there's

00:34:00.480 a missing

00:34:00.800 person

00:34:01.260 or there's

00:34:02.120 some information

00:34:03.380 the public

00:34:03.820 needs to know

00:34:04.520 but when you're

00:34:05.340 getting editorial

00:34:06.220 commentaries

00:34:07.080 from police

00:34:07.600 forces

00:34:07.980 it feels

00:34:08.680 really creepy

00:34:09.320 to me

00:34:09.740 because it

00:34:10.480 tells me

00:34:10.800 the police

00:34:11.160 are coloring

00:34:11.540 outside

00:34:11.940 their lines

00:34:12.540 here for

00:34:13.360 example

00:34:13.680 is a really

00:34:14.080 whiny tweet

00:34:14.900 from Ottawa

00:34:15.920 police saying

00:34:16.680 we're going

00:34:17.200 to turn off

00:34:17.620 replies

00:34:18.120 because we

00:34:18.720 need a safe

00:34:19.280 space

00:34:19.800 like so

00:34:20.580 the Ottawa

00:34:21.040 police are

00:34:21.600 bullying

00:34:21.940 people on

00:34:22.600 Twitter

00:34:22.880 people are

00:34:23.880 clapping back

00:34:24.500 that's the

00:34:24.920 beauty of

00:34:25.320 Twitter

00:34:25.540 as you say

00:34:26.080 something stupid

00:34:26.800 you're going

00:34:27.460 to hear about

00:34:27.900 it from

00:34:28.100 a thousand

00:34:28.440 people

00:34:29.060 the Ottawa

00:34:29.520 police was

00:34:30.120 so outraged

00:34:30.820 that people

00:34:31.200 would disagree

00:34:31.620 with them

00:34:31.940 they blocked

00:34:33.520 anyone from

00:34:34.640 replying

00:34:35.520 and they said

00:34:36.460 we want a

00:34:36.940 safe

00:34:37.480 space

00:34:38.740 and then the

00:34:40.020 Ottawa

00:34:40.260 bylaw

00:34:40.940 announces that

00:34:42.440 they're having

00:34:42.760 thousand dollar

00:34:43.660 fines for

00:34:44.240 unusual noises

00:34:45.120 and things like

00:34:46.340 that

00:34:46.600 a thousand dollar

00:34:48.440 fine you know

00:34:49.040 I mean I've

00:34:50.300 done enough

00:34:51.440 lawyering

00:34:51.980 in the past

00:34:52.920 and I've seen

00:34:53.600 enough

00:34:53.840 law to know

00:34:54.720 you don't

00:34:55.960 you don't get

00:34:56.120 a thousand

00:34:56.560 dollar fine

00:34:57.160 for any

00:34:57.960 first offense

00:34:59.020 crime

00:34:59.680 shoplifters

00:35:01.180 never get

00:35:01.640 a thousand

00:35:02.000 dollar fine

00:35:02.400 they get a

00:35:02.780 conditional

00:35:03.160 or absolute

00:35:03.580 discharge

00:35:04.080 no fine

00:35:04.540 at all

00:35:04.920 you know

00:35:07.020 that

00:35:07.300 we had

00:35:09.280 two people

00:35:09.920 hit

00:35:10.400 David

00:35:11.200 Menzies

00:35:11.780 and

00:35:12.660 Efra Monsanto

00:35:13.580 actually one

00:35:14.920 guy hit

00:35:15.480 them

00:35:15.740 we got

00:35:16.540 we took

00:35:17.800 them to

00:35:18.040 court

00:35:18.220 we won

00:35:18.860 they each

00:35:19.600 got five

00:35:20.040 hundred dollars

00:35:20.740 so a thousand

00:35:22.160 dollar fine

00:35:23.180 for chalk

00:35:24.760 or unusual

00:35:25.300 noises

00:35:25.680 that strikes

00:35:26.680 me as

00:35:27.040 constitutionally

00:35:27.960 extreme

00:35:28.560 cruel and

00:35:29.200 unusual

00:35:29.720 what do you

00:35:30.200 think of that

00:35:30.680 yeah I mean I

00:35:31.620 don't I don't

00:35:32.080 think that

00:35:32.540 opinion is

00:35:33.300 is radical

00:35:33.860 I think they

00:35:34.660 that type of

00:35:35.660 thing is

00:35:36.040 punitive

00:35:36.500 and I think

00:35:37.360 it's meant

00:35:37.800 to be

00:35:38.060 punitive

00:35:38.360 I think

00:35:38.900 it's indicative

00:35:39.760 of the erosion

00:35:40.320 of civil

00:35:40.760 liberties

00:35:41.020 we've seen

00:35:41.580 and it

00:35:42.940 just it

00:35:43.560 angers people

00:35:44.200 and it

00:35:44.480 frightens them

00:35:45.140 and it

00:35:45.740 keeps them

00:35:46.040 compliant

00:35:46.460 because you

00:35:47.240 know people

00:35:47.600 are a thousand

00:35:48.340 dollars to

00:35:48.820 working class

00:35:49.440 people is a

00:35:49.920 lot of

00:35:50.100 money

00:35:50.280 you know I'm

00:35:51.560 reminded of

00:35:52.080 something that

00:35:52.540 happens

00:35:52.880 happened before

00:35:53.700 your time

00:35:54.240 I'm talking

00:35:54.700 25 or so

00:35:55.560 years ago

00:35:56.180 the dictator

00:35:57.680 of Indonesia

00:35:58.360 his name

00:35:58.900 was Suharto

00:35:59.520 he came to

00:36:01.000 visit an

00:36:02.200 APEC summit

00:36:03.100 in Vancouver

00:36:04.180 APEC is

00:36:05.580 you know

00:36:06.300 Asia Pacific

00:36:08.080 countries

00:36:08.560 and he

00:36:10.580 didn't like

00:36:11.500 protests

00:36:12.140 and he didn't

00:36:12.840 like to see

00:36:13.460 protests

00:36:14.000 although Canadians

00:36:14.900 are allowed

00:36:15.840 to protest

00:36:16.480 so Jean

00:36:17.500 Chrétien's

00:36:18.300 prime minister's

00:36:19.440 office

00:36:19.740 directed the

00:36:20.940 police

00:36:21.400 to pepper

00:36:22.600 spray

00:36:23.100 it was

00:36:24.720 named

00:36:25.060 spray

00:36:25.500 pack

00:36:25.720 to pepper

00:36:26.240 spray

00:36:26.560 the

00:36:26.740 protesters

00:36:27.280 and there

00:36:28.140 was even

00:36:28.480 people who

00:36:29.100 were strip

00:36:29.920 searched

00:36:30.420 and I was

00:36:31.580 told at the

00:36:32.180 time the

00:36:32.660 purpose for

00:36:33.280 those strip

00:36:33.700 searches

00:36:34.020 they weren't

00:36:34.380 looking for

00:36:35.180 weapons

00:36:35.540 they wanted

00:36:36.300 to so

00:36:36.840 humiliate

00:36:38.000 the protesters

00:36:39.280 especially the

00:36:40.040 women

00:36:40.300 that they would

00:36:41.760 never do it

00:36:43.120 again

00:36:43.460 they would

00:36:43.800 be punished

00:36:44.540 and psychologically

00:36:46.020 stunned

00:36:47.460 by being

00:36:48.640 stripped

00:36:49.360 naked

00:36:49.900 and inspected

00:36:51.000 which is a

00:36:52.880 Suharto move

00:36:54.220 but it was done

00:36:54.840 by Chrétien

00:36:55.260 this became a

00:36:55.880 real scandal

00:36:56.860 at the time

00:36:57.300 if you google it

00:36:58.500 you know

00:36:59.080 Chrétien said

00:37:00.360 pepper for me

00:37:01.100 is on the plate

00:37:01.740 when he was

00:37:02.740 asked to put the

00:37:03.220 peppers

00:37:03.420 it was a real

00:37:03.920 scandal

00:37:04.300 but what I'll

00:37:05.000 always remember

00:37:05.660 is that they

00:37:06.760 stripped the

00:37:07.440 women naked

00:37:08.100 to psychologically

00:37:09.800 stun them

00:37:11.060 and I see

00:37:12.180 that kind

00:37:12.640 of abusive

00:37:13.460 policing

00:37:14.200 all over the

00:37:15.040 place with the

00:37:15.520 truckers

00:37:15.900 huge fines

00:37:17.240 shriek at

00:37:19.560 them

00:37:19.880 shoot them

00:37:20.920 scare them

00:37:21.800 with riot

00:37:22.400 outfits

00:37:23.380 scare them

00:37:25.080 with tweets

00:37:25.560 threatening

00:37:26.100 you'll hunt

00:37:26.640 them down

00:37:27.160 like the

00:37:27.740 acting chief

00:37:28.980 of police

00:37:29.800 in Ottawa

00:37:30.220 who says

00:37:30.520 if you donated

00:37:31.200 to the truckers

00:37:31.840 we're not done

00:37:32.740 we're coming

00:37:33.180 for you

00:37:33.680 he's like a

00:37:34.260 WWE wrestler

00:37:36.120 there is an

00:37:37.380 abusive strain

00:37:38.560 to this

00:37:38.940 and the

00:37:40.180 good police

00:37:40.800 are silent

00:37:41.340 and the

00:37:41.820 worst cops

00:37:42.520 in the world

00:37:43.040 are loving

00:37:43.940 every second

00:37:44.580 of it

00:37:44.940 yeah

00:37:45.920 look it's

00:37:46.760 troubling

00:37:47.140 you know

00:37:48.940 all we can

00:37:49.420 do is

00:37:49.840 pick our

00:37:50.460 battles

00:37:50.820 and you

00:37:51.940 know

00:37:52.040 fight where

00:37:52.440 we can

00:37:52.820 and that's

00:37:53.160 what TDF

00:37:53.640 is going

00:37:53.880 to do

00:37:54.180 so we'll

00:37:54.960 continue

00:37:55.280 to get

00:37:55.780 out at

00:37:56.140 these

00:37:56.320 protests

00:37:56.800 or these

00:37:57.160 demonstrations

00:37:57.720 and peacefully

00:37:58.380 assemble

00:37:58.780 and display

00:37:59.320 our signs

00:37:59.760 if we want

00:38:00.240 and deal

00:38:00.700 with the

00:38:00.900 consequences

00:38:01.320 all right

00:38:02.340 well listen

00:38:02.740 good luck

00:38:03.240 to you

00:38:03.980 Democracy

00:38:04.380 Fund

00:38:05.260 so glad

00:38:05.660 you're out

00:38:06.040 there in

00:38:06.400 Ottawa

00:38:06.680 and I'm

00:38:07.360 glad you're

00:38:07.680 going to

00:38:08.940 and I

00:38:12.060 know you

00:38:12.260 guys are

00:38:12.520 working on

00:38:12.860 a lot of

00:38:13.220 other important

00:38:13.840 files not

00:38:14.360 just trucker

00:38:15.640 convoy stuff

00:38:16.460 and right

00:38:17.160 to protest

00:38:17.660 but also

00:38:18.260 vaccine

00:38:19.840 cases

00:38:21.000 give us

00:38:21.540 just 30

00:38:22.340 seconds

00:38:23.280 on that

00:38:23.600 you've been

00:38:23.880 taking a

00:38:24.240 lot of

00:38:24.500 cases

00:38:24.880 yeah so

00:38:25.820 we've been

00:38:26.720 helping some

00:38:27.260 students

00:38:27.760 who are

00:38:28.620 unable to

00:38:29.260 get back

00:38:29.600 to their

00:38:29.960 universities

00:38:30.440 because of

00:38:30.900 the vaccine

00:38:31.280 mandates

00:38:31.580 and we

00:38:31.840 thought that

00:38:32.140 was over

00:38:32.480 but apparently

00:38:33.040 a lot of

00:38:33.460 the universities

00:38:33.900 are keeping

00:38:34.420 those vaccine

00:38:34.980 mandates in

00:38:35.460 place

00:38:35.740 which we

00:38:37.560 don't think

00:38:37.880 is fair

00:38:38.320 so we're

00:38:39.280 helping them

00:38:39.880 we've got

00:38:41.160 about 30

00:38:41.840 criminal

00:39:35.860 andrew you know

00:39:36.440 i've had the

00:39:36.760 pleasure of

00:39:37.560 reporting with

00:39:38.880 him in a

00:39:39.260 number of

00:39:39.580 unusual cities

00:39:40.240 including

00:39:40.640 in the uk

00:39:42.400 when when he

00:39:43.520 came to

00:39:44.360 tommy robinson's

00:39:45.320 trial

00:39:45.580 about three

00:39:47.000 four years ago

00:39:47.660 and as you

00:39:48.520 saw he joined

00:39:49.180 our team in

00:39:49.680 davos switzerland

00:39:50.420 to cover the

00:39:51.180 world economic

00:39:51.700 forum we love

00:39:52.220 hanging out with

00:39:52.680 him

00:39:53.300 wild bill says

00:39:55.340 the convoy is

00:39:56.740 meaningful to

00:39:57.620 many many

00:39:58.120 canadians

00:39:58.660 february 18th is

00:40:00.240 a date that will

00:40:00.780 be remembered

00:40:01.280 with disgust

00:40:02.120 i will mark

00:40:03.260 this date and

00:40:04.180 make my best

00:40:04.840 efforts to

00:40:05.380 remind everyone

00:40:06.020 why

00:40:06.440 well you know

00:40:08.040 the funny thing

00:40:09.600 is i think it

00:40:10.140 was an outrage

00:40:10.620 to a lot of

00:40:11.120 ordinary canadians

00:40:11.960 but the

00:40:12.460 establishment

00:40:13.060 elite they

00:40:14.340 generally love

00:40:15.340 the emergencies

00:40:16.040 act they

00:40:16.560 wanted trudeau

00:40:17.520 to go harsher

00:40:18.320 robert paraso

00:40:20.860 says the fight

00:40:21.740 is still going

00:40:22.640 on we need

00:40:23.740 to protect

00:40:24.240 brian peckford

00:40:25.020 at any and

00:40:26.000 all costs

00:40:26.380 you're talking

00:40:26.780 about the

00:40:27.100 former premier

00:40:27.720 of newfoundland

00:40:28.260 he now lives

00:40:29.160 on vancouver

00:40:29.680 island and he

00:40:30.720 is one of the

00:40:31.220 plaintiffs in

00:40:32.160 a lawsuit

00:40:32.580 challenging the

00:40:33.720 flight ban

00:40:34.660 mandate and i'm

00:40:36.140 so glad that

00:40:36.860 lawsuit is

00:40:37.460 proceeding keith

00:40:38.080 wilson's one of

00:40:38.740 the lawyers on

00:40:39.160 that

00:40:39.360 because i'm

00:40:41.220 worried that

00:40:41.580 they're going

00:40:41.780 to try and

00:40:42.120 bring back

00:40:42.480 mandates again

00:40:43.060 otherwise why

00:40:43.640 would health

00:40:45.500 minister duclos

00:40:46.340 say the things

00:40:46.980 he was saying

00:40:47.520 today you know

00:40:48.760 legally you're

00:40:50.640 not jabbed

00:40:51.300 unless you've

00:40:51.720 had one in the

00:40:52.220 last nine

00:40:52.740 months why

00:40:53.500 would that

00:40:53.920 matter unless

00:40:54.540 it was going

00:40:55.600 to matter and

00:40:57.020 what do you mean

00:40:57.620 matter well it

00:40:58.920 mattered before you

00:40:59.660 couldn't get on

00:41:00.100 planes or trains you

00:41:01.100 couldn't go in

00:41:01.700 restaurants you

00:41:02.600 couldn't work for

00:41:03.180 the government i'm

00:41:03.860 worried they're

00:41:04.320 going to try and

00:41:04.720 bring that back

00:41:05.360 let me leave you

00:41:06.940 with that thought

00:41:07.500 on this independence

00:41:08.460 day until tomorrow

00:41:09.440 on behalf of all

00:41:10.640 of us here at

00:41:18.900 party of canada

00:41:23.120 not one but two

00:41:24.960 petitions now our

00:41:26.180 first petition folks

00:41:27.360 is to free tamara

00:41:29.580 leach as you know

00:41:31.380 tamara leach is

00:41:32.240 essentially a

00:41:33.140 political prisoner she

00:41:34.200 was rearrested the

00:41:35.880 other day allegedly

00:41:37.580 for breaking bail

00:41:39.040 conditions it's very

00:41:40.160 unclear what those

00:41:41.920 are but nevertheless

00:41:43.180 this grandmother from

00:41:44.740 medicine hat is back

00:41:47.140 behind bars disgraceful

00:41:48.820 and we are asking for

00:41:50.200 prime minister justin

00:41:52.060 trudeau to stop

00:41:53.880 persecuting peaceful

00:41:55.920 protesters like tamara

00:41:57.900 leach and to release

00:42:00.080 her immediately more

00:42:01.600 than 23 000 of you

00:42:03.500 sign that petition and

00:42:05.660 we thank you for it now

00:42:06.880 our second petition oh

00:42:08.760 how his nose grows oh

00:42:10.560 how his slacks smoulder

00:42:12.620 yes i'm talking about

00:42:14.360 minister of lying no

00:42:15.620 rather sorry the public

00:42:17.260 safety minister marco

00:42:18.840 mendicino as you know

00:42:21.380 marco mendicino lied

00:42:23.660 through his teeth not

00:42:25.220 once not twice but more

00:42:27.160 than a dozen times telling

00:42:29.180 canadians it was law

00:42:30.920 enforcement that asked the

00:42:33.060 government to enact the

00:42:34.920 emergencies act back in

00:42:36.780 february when the trucker

00:42:38.180 freedom convoy was in

00:42:39.440 ottawa the advice we

00:42:40.740 received was to invoke the

00:42:42.700 emergencies act look i i don't

00:42:44.340 want to speak for every last

00:42:45.980 serving member of law

00:42:48.120 enforcement but there was a

00:42:49.100 very strong consensus that we

00:42:50.420 needed to invoke the act we

00:42:51.680 invoked the act because it

00:42:54.960 was the advice of nonpartisan

00:42:57.220 professional law enforcement

00:42:58.640 the advice that we were

00:43:00.340 getting was that um that the

00:43:02.540 law enforcement needed the

00:43:03.820 emergencies act it was only

00:43:05.560 after we got advice from law

00:43:07.120 enforcement then we invoked the

00:43:08.820 emergencies act and that advice

00:43:10.120 in from very experienced law

00:43:12.300 enforcement we had to invoke the

00:43:12.400 emergency act the

00:43:14.120 academies but it didn't.

00:43:14.280 and we did so on the basis of non-partisan professional advice from law enforcement.

00:43:18.800 And that was the advice that we were receiving from law enforcement,

00:43:22.460 and one of the main reasons why we invoked the Emergencies Act.

00:43:25.520 We got the advice from our law enforcement that we'd met the threshold.

00:43:28.940 They then came to their judgment, as you say,

00:43:31.520 and thereafter, we came to ours on the basis of the advice that we were getting from law enforcement.

00:43:37.260 That has been proven false.

00:43:39.520 There's not a single law enforcement agency that has stepped forth and said,

00:43:44.720 yeah, that's right, that's what we wanted.

00:43:47.220 It's an absolute disgrace the public safety minister would lie about something as important as that.

00:43:54.300 That's why we started our Fire Mandacino petition.

00:43:58.380 More than 15,000 of you signed that one.

00:44:01.500 So we have some gifts for the Liberal Party of Canada.

00:44:05.540 We are going to present the thousands and thousands of signatures on these two petitions

00:44:11.040 from Canadians from coast to coast saying that you are doing just a dreadful job

00:44:17.360 when it comes to telling the truth and arresting peaceful protesters.

00:44:22.700 Good day. The building is closed. It is only open to staff.

00:44:28.160 Have a good day.

00:44:29.220 Oh, sir, just before you hang up, are you there?

00:44:32.800 I'm not coming into the building.

00:44:34.240 Can someone please accept the delivery?

00:44:36.420 It's two petitions I'm dropping off to the Liberal Party of Canada, please.

00:44:41.320 There is a procedure in place for that.

00:44:43.080 You can find the procedure on the House of Commons website at parl.gc.ca.

00:44:46.580 All the mailing addresses are there, and you can find them there.

00:44:50.200 The mailing reception facility is there.

00:44:53.380 At this point, I would ask that you vacate the entrance, please.

00:44:55.680 Sir, it's tens of thousands of petitions.

00:45:00.120 Can you believe the arrogance?

00:45:02.860 It is unbelievable.

00:45:04.740 I've been redirected to a parliamentary website.

00:45:08.320 It's tens of thousands of emailed signatures, and I don't think we're going to send them one after the other.

00:45:18.480 But the absolute arrogance that nobody will come to the door and accept these petitions, it's not a rebel news thing.

00:45:27.240 It's for you.

00:45:28.020 You, the people, all of you who signed this, look at the contempt they have for you for signing a document that demands Tamara Leach be freed

00:45:37.120 and that Marco Mendicino is fired.

00:45:41.020 Well, we'll just hang around and...

00:45:43.740 Oh, there we are.

00:45:45.300 How do you like that?

00:45:46.080 Open door.

00:45:47.260 Hi there, sir.

00:45:47.980 How are you?

00:45:48.440 Good, sir.

00:45:49.180 I'm not coming into the building.

00:45:50.720 I'm just dropping off two petitions to the Liberal Party of Canada.

00:45:54.120 Yeah, just my colleague, just to explain to you the procedure.

00:45:57.000 Okay, I don't understand the procedure.

00:45:58.100 How can we possibly email tens of thousands of petitions?

00:46:02.040 You can contact PPS Media Relations.

00:46:04.320 They'll give you all the info you need.

00:46:05.380 Who is PPS Media Relations?

00:46:07.560 You can find it on the PPS website.

00:46:09.780 Okay, do you have a name of that person?

00:46:11.800 I don't.

00:46:12.600 I have an email address if you need.

00:46:14.440 Okay, and what would that be?

00:46:15.900 Media.relations.pps-spp.pearl.gc.ca

00:46:20.420 But no name, no actual person?

00:46:22.460 It's a generic email.

00:46:23.400 Is there any problem?

00:46:25.160 We've come all the way from Toronto to deliver this.

00:46:27.480 Is there any problem with leaving this?

00:46:28.680 It's just paper.

00:46:29.320 It's harmless.

00:46:29.900 It's impossible.

00:46:30.560 It's impossible.

00:46:31.340 We don't accept anything.

00:46:32.680 You don't accept anything?

00:46:33.600 I thought we were living in a democracy.

00:46:35.780 Thank you for your time, sir.

00:46:36.700 Okay, then.

00:46:37.780 So, is there another office?

00:46:40.880 Nope.

00:46:44.380 There's your parliamentary protective service hard at work protecting liberal members of

00:46:52.040 Parliament from, oh, I don't know, impolite questions, thousands of signatures saying they're

00:46:58.540 doing a horrific job.

00:47:00.960 Unbelievable.

00:47:01.600 Well, folks, we are not going to let this rest.

00:47:06.460 We will somehow find a way to get those signatures to the appropriate people.

00:47:12.860 But, again, you are watching an arrogant and egregious government that is out of control, that won't

00:47:20.360 even accept petitions from you, the people.

00:47:24.340 Absolutely disgraceful.

00:47:27.000 Folks, I'm standing outside the Conservative Party of Canada headquarters.

00:47:31.660 We have just come from the Liberal Party of Canada headquarters.

00:47:35.740 We tried to deliver two petitions, namely to free Tamara Leach and to, well, fire Marco

00:47:43.500 Mandicino, a.k.a. Pinocchio, with a portfolio.

00:47:47.760 And can you imagine the contempt the Liberals have for you, the taxpayers of Canada?

00:47:54.520 They wouldn't even accept our petitions.

00:47:58.240 And so, combined, that was close to 50,000 signatures.

00:48:02.340 In any event, we have a separate petition for the Conservative Party of Canada.

00:48:07.040 It is to demand that they hold this Liberal government accountable, that they stand up

00:48:12.220 for people like Tamara Leach, that peaceful protesters and the organizers of peaceful protests

00:48:19.500 shouldn't be incarcerated.

00:48:22.420 It is an outrage.

00:48:23.980 Tamara Leach is a political prisoner, and we know the Conservatives like to stand up for

00:48:27.900 individual liberty and our rights and our freedoms.

00:48:31.020 Well, enough with the talk.

00:48:33.720 You've also got to walk the walk.

00:48:35.540 So, we're giving this petition to them.

00:48:37.380 Hopefully, that will light a fire.

00:48:39.120 And the case of Tamara Leach will be raised by the official opposition.

00:48:44.720 Let's go drop it off.

00:48:46.160 Yes, good day.

00:48:47.380 My name is David Menzies, and I'm just here to deliver a petition from Rebel News viewers.

00:48:54.800 It's about freeing Tamara Leach, and it's addressed to the Conservative Party of Canada.

00:48:59.640 And I just wanted to drop off the 23,000-plus signatures, if I could, please.

00:49:08.000 Thank you.

00:49:09.000 Hi there.

00:49:09.680 How are you doing, sir?

00:49:10.560 Great.

00:49:10.940 How are you?

00:49:11.260 Good.

00:49:11.520 This is a collection of more than 23,000 signatures.

00:49:16.840 It's about Tamara Leach getting her freed.

00:49:19.680 And it's just asking the Conservative Party of Canada to make an issue of this with the

00:49:24.180 Liberal government to free a peaceful protest or an organizer of a peaceful protest.

00:49:29.480 Got it.

00:49:29.840 Appreciate it.

00:49:30.220 Thank you, sir.

00:49:30.760 I appreciate your time.

00:49:31.640 Have a good Dominion Day.
