Transcript

00:00:00.000 Well, my friends, there's a viral video out there.
00:00:02.580 Stu Peters is the host.
00:00:05.060 A Canadian named Patrick King is the star interviewee
00:00:09.520 who claims he defeated Alberta's lockdown
00:00:12.680 in a case in Red Deer that he sort of screwed up jurisdictionally,
00:00:18.260 but he absolutely liberated the whole province.
00:00:20.960 Is it true?
00:00:22.620 Almost a million people have watched the video.
00:00:24.800 I'll go through it, I'll play a big clip of it,
00:00:26.700 and I'll explain why I don't quite think it's what it pretends to be.
00:00:32.320 Oh, people are going to be mad at me for this
00:00:34.200 because it's nice to hope and to dream, isn't it,
00:00:37.320 especially in these hopeless times.
00:00:39.880 I hope you watch the whole thing.
00:00:42.540 This is a video where it's a big help
00:00:46.300 if you have the video version of the podcast.
00:00:50.200 I want you to see what the characters look like.
00:00:52.700 I want you to see the transcript.
00:00:54.540 Obviously, the podcast will do.
00:00:56.980 But if you have the time to sign up for Rebel News Plus,
00:01:01.420 you really hit the video side.
00:01:02.620 I think it's a totally different experience.
00:01:04.560 It's only $8 a month.
00:01:05.700 Go to rebelnews.com and click subscribe.
00:01:08.440 And that $8 a month, it really goes a long way for us
00:01:10.900 because if we have thousands of people doing that,
00:01:12.660 we can run a whole company.
00:01:15.040 And you know we don't take a dime from Trudeau.
00:01:17.260 So just go to rebelnews.com and click subscribe.
00:01:19.780 Besides my show, you get a bunch of others.
00:01:21.760 All right, here's today's program.
00:01:23.000 Tonight, did a lone man from Red Deer
00:01:25.740 really defeat Alberta's lockdown in court
00:01:28.180 and free the whole province?
00:01:29.960 It's August 5th, and this is the Ezra Levant Show.
00:01:32.420 Why should others go to jail
00:01:36.200 when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:38.400 There's 8,500 customers here,
00:01:40.700 and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:42.480 The only thing I have to say to the government
00:01:44.400 about why I'm publishing it
00:01:46.080 is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:01:48.340 In the six years we've had Rebel News,
00:01:55.520 this has got to be one of the top news stories
00:01:58.300 that people have sent to us to cover.
00:02:02.200 I think we've received over 100 emails
00:02:04.640 telling us about this case,
00:02:07.860 asking us about it, recommending it to us,
00:02:10.260 telling us to pass it on to our lawyers
00:02:12.160 so they can learn from it.
00:02:13.840 I don't think I'd comment on it except for that reason.
00:02:17.360 It has obviously captured the imagination
00:02:20.360 of a lot of people, and I think I know why.
00:02:24.260 Last I checked, the video question here
00:02:26.580 received almost 800,000 views on rumble.com alone.
00:02:33.240 I think it's because we're in the worst of times,
00:02:35.380 not medically, but politically, legally.
00:02:38.260 In terms of the virus, there's an actual health crisis.
00:02:42.040 Look at this.
00:02:42.680 This is a map of COVID-19 deaths in Canada this past week.
00:02:48.760 Second largest landmass in the world, 38 million people,
00:02:51.700 and we're averaging fewer than 10 deaths per day.
00:02:54.280 Average age is still very old, over 80.
00:02:56.840 Average victim is very sick from other things.
00:02:59.340 Six out of Canada's 14 provinces and territories,
00:03:02.500 sorry, 13 provinces and territories,
00:03:04.820 haven't had a single COVID death in more than a week.
00:03:06.940 And yet the lockdowns continue everywhere, except Alberta.
00:03:12.280 I know you wouldn't believe it,
00:03:13.280 given how shrill the nightly warnings are
00:03:15.160 about this Delta variant and that super-duper mutation
00:03:18.100 and all the fear of pornography that's called news today.
00:03:21.760 But the fact is, statistically speaking, it's done.
00:03:26.600 And it's been done for quite a while.
00:03:28.340 The politicians still punish children, though.
00:03:30.800 It really bothers me.
00:03:31.820 Schools with masks, schools by Zoom, kids at home.
00:03:37.600 In Ontario, there are more than 3 million minors in the province.
00:03:41.160 And the grand total of four people under age 20
00:03:44.080 have died from the virus since the beginning.
00:03:46.020 Pretty much one in a million.
00:03:47.420 And yet every kid must wear antisocial muzzles
00:03:52.080 for the privilege of going back to school
00:03:53.920 if the schools aren't canceled altogether.
00:03:55.820 And yet no one seems to care.
00:03:59.480 No one in power, at least.
00:04:00.800 No government, no opposition party, no major media outlet,
00:04:03.400 no official group of doctors or nurses
00:04:05.600 or university deans or judges, that's for sure.
00:04:08.800 It's madness upon madness.
00:04:10.860 I'm going on too long, but my point is this.
00:04:12.720 No one seems to be coming to save us.
00:04:15.520 And then there's this video that pops up on the internet
00:04:17.700 from an American pundit I don't think
00:04:19.640 a dozen Canadians had heard of before.
00:04:21.920 I hadn't heard of them before.
00:04:23.240 Talking to someone from Red Deer
00:04:24.680 that I don't think a dozen Canadians
00:04:26.080 had heard from before.
00:04:27.320 And they claim, in the words of that video's title,
00:04:31.760 Freedom Fighter Court Victory
00:04:33.760 Ends Masking Shots Quarantine in Alberta.
00:04:38.360 So you can understand why a hundred people
00:04:40.740 have sent this to us
00:04:41.700 and why close to a million people
00:04:43.600 have watched it in just a couple of days.
00:04:46.400 Finally, finally, a hero.
00:04:49.980 Is it true?
00:04:52.200 Is it a miracle?
00:04:53.320 Have our prayers been answered?
00:04:55.400 They seem so confident and optimistic that it has.
00:04:59.180 If parliaments and legislatures have failed us
00:05:01.520 and of courts have failed us
00:05:02.840 and the so-called civil liberties groups
00:05:05.180 have failed us and the media
00:05:06.180 and, of course, academia and every establishment,
00:05:08.980 everyone who's supposed to be on guard,
00:05:10.160 if they all failed and were desperate
00:05:12.140 and nothing seems to add up
00:05:13.520 and then this miracle happens,
00:05:15.700 there's a term in literature,
00:05:16.960 Deus Ex Machina,
00:05:18.020 where some miracle just comes abruptly
00:05:20.500 to fix a problem in the plot line.
00:05:23.640 I think that explains the passion and excitement for the story
00:05:26.180 and it also explains the anger and the sense of betrayal
00:05:29.780 when I mentioned on my noontime livestream yesterday
00:05:32.800 that, alas, it's just too good to be true.
00:05:35.800 It's not what it claims to be.
00:05:36.880 Why would people be so mad about that?
00:05:41.380 About a story they just heard about
00:05:43.240 from a video host none of them had ever watched before.
00:05:46.220 Stu Peters, you ever heard of him before?
00:05:47.380 Talking to someone they never knew before.
00:05:50.560 Patrick King, did you know him?
00:05:53.080 Why the rage?
00:05:55.300 I think I know why.
00:05:57.180 Because we need help so badly
00:05:59.180 that even false hope is better than no hope.
00:06:03.220 And even if that guy in the video isn't right,
00:06:05.560 at least he's fighting, at least he's trying.
00:06:08.340 Now, I'm going to play a large chunk of the video to you.
00:06:10.640 The whole thing is about 17 minutes.
00:06:12.660 I'm not going to play that much.
00:06:13.560 I'll play 10 minutes of it.
00:06:14.840 You'll see a few things immediately
00:06:17.160 that cause your ears to perk up.
00:06:18.920 The host is American, Stu Peters.
00:06:21.120 He's not quite sure things in Canada.
00:06:23.400 He calls the Globe and Mail the Daily Mail.
00:06:26.380 The video went up two days ago, August 3rd.
00:06:28.480 The court case they're talking about
00:06:30.080 happened on July 21st,
00:06:31.980 yet Alberta's lockdowns were lifted
00:06:34.100 three weeks earlier.
00:06:36.240 They were lifted on July 1st.
00:06:39.100 But they say that this court case
00:06:41.280 is what lifted them.
00:06:42.040 That happened 20 days earlier.
00:06:43.400 That's also when the mask mandates were lifted, too.
00:06:47.260 It's just not accurate right from the beginning.
00:06:50.920 But what they lack in accuracy,
00:06:52.360 they make up for in enthusiasm.
00:06:54.780 It's the American host who says
00:06:56.360 most of the convincing and hopeful words,
00:06:58.700 and not the Canadian guests
00:06:59.780 he's supposedly interviewing.
00:07:01.980 I note that the Canadian, Patrick King,
00:07:04.320 doesn't correct him,
00:07:05.520 so they leave the impression.
00:07:07.400 But I think later the Canadian warms to the theme
00:07:10.480 he starts to believe the American,
00:07:12.320 and he says that he's finally cracked the code.
00:07:15.700 He knows how to win this all,
00:07:17.680 to win everywhere,
00:07:18.780 to win the whole country,
00:07:20.420 and everyone should follow his legal strategy.
00:07:23.140 He's not a lawyer,
00:07:23.940 but he found what the smart lawyers couldn't.
00:07:26.900 Here, watch.
00:07:27.480 I'm going to play ten full minutes of this
00:07:29.780 because it's interesting.
00:07:32.140 When last I checked,
00:07:32.980 almost 800,000 people watched it on Rumble alone.
00:07:35.520 More elsewhere.
00:07:36.780 Watch this
00:07:37.600 to see what all the excitement is about.
00:07:40.360 See what a hundred people have emailed me.
00:07:42.800 I'm going to play ten minutes of it,
00:07:43.820 but please hold on
00:07:44.620 and wait for me on the other side.
00:07:46.260 I want to talk to you about it.
00:07:47.400 Take a look.
00:07:50.160 Well, we are happy to break news out of Canada
00:07:53.240 that the Daily Mail will not touch.
00:07:55.280 None of the mainstream media is going to touch this.
00:07:57.220 These propagandists are going to hide this from you
00:07:59.920 because this is encouraging to freedom fighters,
00:08:02.640 patriots who want to take matters into their own hands
00:08:05.660 and stand up against this tyrannical,
00:08:08.040 overreaching system of mandates
00:08:09.920 that forces you to muzzle yourself
00:08:12.100 with an ineffective face diaper,
00:08:14.200 socially distance away from your family,
00:08:16.160 stop giving hugs,
00:08:16.940 not visiting grandma,
00:08:18.020 masking up your kids in school for 10 hours a day,
00:08:20.300 possibly while you're exercising.
00:08:21.700 It's all ridiculous.
00:08:23.160 But breaking out of Alberta today,
00:08:25.820 mandatory masking is coming to an end.
00:08:27.760 Kids will not be masking when they return to school.
00:08:30.160 Mandatory quarantine will be ending,
00:08:32.580 contact tracing, testing for mild symptoms.
00:08:35.600 It's all done.
00:08:37.020 They will now be recognizing COVID as a mild flu
00:08:40.320 and treating it as such.
00:08:41.780 Freedom has won in Alberta,
00:08:44.000 proving that fighting does work.
00:08:46.080 Joining us now is Patrick King,
00:08:48.060 a devoted father of two, a proud Canadian.
00:08:50.220 You were fined $1,200 for violating
00:08:52.460 the COVID-19 Public Health Act
00:08:54.440 for being in a group larger than 10,
00:08:56.520 which I'm assuming is what lit the fire inside of you.
00:08:59.680 And it appears that you, sir,
00:09:01.240 were a part of the efforts
00:09:02.200 that we can now celebrate today.
00:09:03.480 Tell us about it.
00:09:05.280 Yeah, for sure.
00:09:06.180 Thanks for having me on, Stu.
00:09:08.440 Yeah, on December 5th, we held a rally.
00:09:10.960 So in Red Deer, Alberta, Canada,
00:09:13.000 we have been known as the only city in Canada
00:09:15.960 to hold the longest rally
00:09:17.220 against all these government mandates
00:09:19.340 that they've been putting in.
00:09:20.340 And with regards to even our industries,
00:09:22.960 I started back about four years ago.
00:09:25.440 I'm an oil and gas worker,
00:09:26.840 have been for over 17 years.
00:09:28.360 I also hold a degree
00:09:29.180 in occupational health and safety and environment.
00:09:31.600 And when they started to attack
00:09:33.320 our industry out here,
00:09:34.220 I started getting a little bit more vocal.
00:09:36.260 So we've held rallies on our streets
00:09:37.960 with regards to oil and gas
00:09:39.740 and this government that we have
00:09:41.400 for over three and a half years.
00:09:43.080 And on December 5th,
00:09:44.360 we were celebrating our 200th week
00:09:47.580 of being on the corner
00:09:48.960 on a Saturday morning protesting.
00:09:51.640 And on that particular day,
00:09:53.300 COVID mandates were implemented
00:09:55.780 and they were going on
00:09:57.340 for the last little while.
00:09:59.000 And I was obviously targeted
00:10:00.960 because of my voice.
00:10:01.960 And I know this,
00:10:02.700 and it's in the transcripts in the court.
00:10:04.640 I was targeted
00:10:05.660 and I received a ticket of $1,200.
00:10:08.540 So I waited for my time in court.
00:10:10.400 I ended up getting it on May the 4th,
00:10:12.280 finally, and I went into court
00:10:13.600 and I produced some information
00:10:15.440 that I needed to request
00:10:16.800 in order to put up
00:10:18.460 a good plausible defense.
00:10:20.520 And my material that I requested
00:10:22.580 was the isolation
00:10:23.440 of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
00:10:25.360 And I wanted it isolated
00:10:26.600 and not in a lab setting
00:10:29.080 or in a PCR test
00:10:30.160 because we know the PCR tests,
00:10:31.660 they're overspun.
00:10:32.920 We know we're not stupid people.
00:10:34.860 We know, we research, we look.
00:10:36.820 So in doing that,
00:10:38.120 they kind of shut me out of the court.
00:10:39.600 I was supposed to be in court
00:10:40.420 on May the 18th.
00:10:41.820 All of a sudden I get,
00:10:43.100 once I deliver all of this,
00:10:44.420 and I get told,
00:10:45.560 as a self-representative,
00:10:46.800 I can,
00:10:48.200 the judge has to advocate for me
00:10:50.480 and steer me in the right direction.
00:10:52.020 At which time she allowed me
00:10:53.720 to subpoena Dina Hinshaw,
00:10:56.720 who is our chief medical officer
00:10:58.280 of health for Alberta,
00:11:00.240 who basically,
00:11:01.420 what my defense was to be was,
00:11:03.480 I needed proof
00:11:04.440 that you have isolated
00:11:05.880 the SARS-CoV-2 virus
00:11:07.300 and that, therefore,
00:11:08.880 the science would give you
00:11:10.000 the backing
00:11:10.600 for your public health act.
00:11:11.740 Which in plain and simple terms
00:11:13.460 means prove to me
00:11:14.620 that a pandemic exists.
00:11:16.100 Prove to me
00:11:16.640 that we're all going to die.
00:11:17.840 Prove to me
00:11:18.220 that this thing
00:11:18.840 is raging out of control
00:11:20.000 and that people are dying
00:11:20.920 from this thing.
00:11:22.740 100%.
00:11:23.060 And if they did that,
00:11:24.400 then I would be no problem.
00:11:25.800 I would say,
00:11:26.780 okay, you're right.
00:11:27.720 You've got this.
00:11:28.400 I'll put this mask on.
00:11:30.020 Well,
00:11:30.240 as soon as I subpoenaed her,
00:11:32.300 I got an officer
00:11:33.860 shows up at my door
00:11:34.780 three days later.
00:11:35.840 He says,
00:11:36.160 Mr. King,
00:11:36.660 I need your address.
00:11:37.500 I said,
00:11:37.820 oh,
00:11:37.960 you mean the address
00:11:38.600 you're at right now?
00:11:39.820 You have that address?
00:11:41.260 Yeah,
00:11:41.540 well,
00:11:41.700 I need your email address.
00:11:42.860 And I said,
00:11:43.780 well,
00:11:43.920 the same email address
00:11:44.900 that's on all my correspondence
00:11:46.060 with you guys
00:11:46.880 and all this stuff?
00:11:47.600 You already have it.
00:11:48.480 Well,
00:11:48.660 I need your telephone number.
00:11:49.740 I said,
00:11:50.000 you mean the telephone number
00:11:50.880 that you call me on all the time?
00:11:52.720 And he's kind of looking dumb
00:11:53.900 and he says,
00:11:54.400 well,
00:11:54.520 I'm just here to tell you
00:11:55.380 that your court case
00:11:57.120 has been canceled.
00:11:58.280 I was like,
00:11:58.640 this can't happen.
00:11:59.800 You can't cancel my court case.
00:12:01.660 And he kind of snickered.
00:12:02.880 Well,
00:12:03.300 I ended up calling the courthouse,
00:12:05.140 got it rescheduled.
00:12:06.580 And upon the rescheduling,
00:12:08.020 I got it in.
00:12:09.180 And next thing I know,
00:12:10.380 I'm being subpoenaed
00:12:11.780 by Dina Hinshaw's lawyers now
00:12:13.580 on a Sunday morning
00:12:14.780 at 1153 in the morning.
00:12:16.180 I timestamped process service
00:12:18.420 serving me this.
00:12:19.560 In less than 24 hours,
00:12:20.960 I had to be in behind
00:12:21.860 closed chambers
00:12:22.620 with Dina Hinshaw's lawyers
00:12:24.480 and the judges.
00:12:25.900 And I'm like,
00:12:26.440 okay,
00:12:26.680 well,
00:12:26.860 this is odd.
00:12:27.420 This is what's called
00:12:28.240 a procedural violation.
00:12:29.640 You cannot serve
00:12:30.500 as somebody
00:12:31.020 a subpoena
00:12:31.980 less than 24 hours
00:12:33.380 before court.
00:12:34.360 And I knew they were
00:12:35.000 up to something dirty.
00:12:36.900 When I got the subpoena,
00:12:38.400 we went into court.
00:12:39.720 I get into court
00:12:40.480 the next day.
00:12:41.240 I call procedural violation
00:12:42.780 100%.
00:12:43.500 They said,
00:12:44.240 yes,
00:12:44.500 it's a procedural violation.
00:12:45.760 I said,
00:12:46.380 okay,
00:12:46.660 your honor,
00:12:47.020 well,
00:12:47.160 let's adjourn it
00:12:47.760 to Wednesday.
00:12:48.740 And this would have been
00:12:49.520 June,
00:12:51.640 or sorry,
00:12:52.140 July 24th.
00:12:53.260 And I would have been in court.
00:12:55.160 And she says,
00:12:55.920 no,
00:12:56.120 we can't.
00:12:57.120 I said,
00:12:57.500 your honor,
00:12:57.820 this is a procedural violation.
00:12:59.360 And well,
00:12:59.800 when that happened,
00:13:01.060 Dina Hinshaw's lawyer spoke up
00:13:02.740 and she said,
00:13:03.860 well,
00:13:04.060 your honor,
00:13:05.700 Mr.
00:13:06.040 King is requesting evidence
00:13:07.540 that we cannot give.
00:13:09.100 And I was kind of like,
00:13:10.720 what?
00:13:11.440 And I sent you a screenshot of it.
00:13:13.600 And in the screenshot,
00:13:14.540 it says,
00:13:15.260 the chief medical officer of health
00:13:17.480 has no material evidence
00:13:19.700 to provide Mr.
00:13:21.400 King for his defense,
00:13:22.860 which basically means
00:13:23.960 everything that I requested
00:13:25.200 in schedule A,
00:13:26.500 which is the isolation
00:13:27.380 of the SARS-CoV-2 virus
00:13:28.980 that needs to be
00:13:30.660 100% isolated
00:13:32.340 in order to base
00:13:33.180 your scientific facts
00:13:34.260 on these public health acts.
00:13:35.660 You don't have material evidence
00:13:37.160 for this.
00:13:38.080 And they said,
00:13:38.640 no.
00:13:39.420 And I had to reiterate again
00:13:41.240 to the lawyer
00:13:41.760 or to the judge.
00:13:42.580 I said,
00:13:42.840 your honor,
00:13:43.280 just for the record,
00:13:44.140 I want it to be
00:13:45.180 on the record,
00:13:46.460 duly noted
00:13:46.960 that the chief medical officer
00:13:48.540 of health of Alberta
00:13:49.380 does not have material evidence
00:13:50.860 I request.
00:13:52.000 She says,
00:13:52.460 yes, Mr. King,
00:13:53.400 they did say that.
00:13:54.580 Perfect.
00:13:55.380 I lose the subpoena
00:13:56.600 on Dina Hinshaw.
00:13:58.100 That's okay.
00:13:59.120 Because what had happened
00:14:00.180 is a procedural violation.
00:14:02.100 Now,
00:14:02.640 what they've done is
00:14:03.480 the court system
00:14:04.540 actually bamboozled me
00:14:05.940 and sent me
00:14:06.320 in the wrong direction,
00:14:07.260 which is a violation
00:14:08.200 of my rights
00:14:08.940 as a Canadian citizen.
00:14:10.600 I go in
00:14:11.520 on the 24th
00:14:12.960 and I couldn't believe it.
00:14:15.500 There are attorney,
00:14:16.640 general,
00:14:17.580 prosecutors
00:14:18.220 from Ottawa
00:14:19.220 in the courtroom
00:14:20.560 and now my statement
00:14:22.100 says no longer
00:14:23.020 does it say
00:14:23.580 Dina Hinshaw
00:14:24.440 versus Patrick King.
00:14:25.760 It states
00:14:26.700 the Queen,
00:14:27.900 Her Majesty the Queen
00:14:29.260 versus Patrick King.
00:14:31.520 So now,
00:14:32.620 where's my accuser?
00:14:33.760 If the Queen
00:14:34.280 is my accuser,
00:14:35.500 I get to address
00:14:36.400 my accuser.
00:14:37.680 Well,
00:14:38.240 lo and behold,
00:14:39.320 they find out
00:14:40.220 that everything I did
00:14:41.620 is absolutely phenomenal.
00:14:43.860 They can't believe it.
00:14:44.960 I remember,
00:14:45.460 I'll still remember
00:14:46.020 the look on the faces.
00:14:46.900 So I reiterated again,
00:14:49.060 the Chief Medical Officer
00:14:50.000 of Health
00:14:50.400 of Alberta,
00:14:51.320 Ms. Dina Hinshaw
00:14:52.200 and AHS
00:14:53.880 and the Alberta
00:14:54.620 Provincial Government
00:14:55.440 do not have
00:14:56.580 the material evidence
00:14:57.680 I request
00:14:58.420 for the isolation
00:14:59.160 of SARS-CoV-2.
00:15:00.380 And when the judge
00:15:01.240 said that,
00:15:01.860 these two stenographers
00:15:02.840 or stenographer
00:15:03.860 and a clerk
00:15:04.240 just went like this.
00:15:05.940 Yeah.
00:15:06.440 And their jaws
00:15:07.500 dropped to the floor.
00:15:09.060 Yeah,
00:15:09.220 they must have looked
00:15:09.820 at the judge like,
00:15:10.720 are we supposed
00:15:11.500 to type this?
00:15:12.400 Do you really want
00:15:15.300 this on the record?
00:15:16.780 I mean,
00:15:16.980 this is amazing stuff
00:15:18.580 and it's so simple
00:15:19.740 when you think about it.
00:15:21.220 This is so simple.
00:15:22.600 You have essentially
00:15:23.580 taught the world
00:15:25.080 exactly what they need
00:15:28.300 to do to liberate themselves.
00:15:29.340 I mean,
00:15:29.800 that's right.
00:15:30.600 But the problem lies
00:15:31.980 and of course,
00:15:32.620 we're going to have
00:15:33.020 to battle uphill
00:15:33.780 because we have
00:15:34.620 a compromised judiciary,
00:15:36.900 a corrupt judiciary.
00:15:37.780 You have to get
00:15:38.860 before a judge
00:15:39.500 that's actually
00:15:40.120 going to rule
00:15:41.060 impartially.
00:15:42.840 Yep.
00:15:43.480 But okay,
00:15:43.900 so take your tidbit
00:15:44.660 through the rest of this
00:15:45.320 because you've got
00:15:45.980 to finish your story.
00:15:46.720 I'm sorry.
00:15:47.600 Yeah,
00:15:47.920 so what happens now is
00:15:49.760 and in my closing remarks
00:15:51.720 I told the judge,
00:15:52.640 I said to your honour,
00:15:54.200 I said thank you very much
00:15:55.300 and I looked at
00:15:56.440 the Crown Prosecutor
00:15:57.240 and I said thank you very much
00:15:58.460 and to the Attorney Generals
00:16:00.080 that decided to come
00:16:01.400 in the room
00:16:01.820 for a $1,200 ticket
00:16:03.220 and I got Ottawa
00:16:04.060 listening now,
00:16:05.420 thank you to each
00:16:06.400 and every one of you
00:16:07.060 because you taught me
00:16:07.980 everything I need to know
00:16:09.440 to be the loudest,
00:16:11.380 proactive,
00:16:11.900 advocate for everybody
00:16:13.520 across Canada
00:16:14.440 let alone North America
00:16:15.920 and the world
00:16:16.960 because now we know
00:16:18.180 exactly what you guys
00:16:19.200 are doing to us.
00:16:20.280 We have it on record,
00:16:21.420 we have the proof
00:16:22.300 and you know what?
00:16:23.460 I get these transcripts
00:16:24.640 this afternoon,
00:16:25.340 I wish I would have had them
00:16:26.200 before you called me
00:16:26.860 this morning
00:16:27.200 because then I would have shown,
00:16:28.360 been able to provide it to you
00:16:29.420 and hopefully maybe
00:16:29.980 we can do a sequel to this
00:16:32.240 when I have it all
00:16:33.120 but in the transcripts
00:16:34.740 I state it
00:16:35.300 and I know they're shaking
00:16:36.340 in their boots.
00:16:37.600 So when I said
00:16:38.240 I'm going to start
00:16:39.020 teaching people
00:16:39.720 exactly what they need to do
00:16:40.920 because we were that close
00:16:41.980 they got me on a judicial
00:16:42.980 what's called
00:16:43.920 a jurisdictional challenge
00:16:45.760 which the judge advocated
00:16:48.040 for me to subpoena
00:16:49.880 Dina Hinshaw
00:16:50.840 because she has to
00:16:51.780 but what she didn't do
00:16:53.200 was tell me
00:16:53.700 the appropriate direction
00:16:54.780 to go to
00:16:55.200 so I used the justice
00:16:56.140 of the peace
00:16:56.780 who signed the subpoena
00:16:59.920 well it's a judge
00:17:01.460 who needs to sign
00:17:02.600 the subpoena
00:17:03.100 not a justice of the peace
00:17:04.320 so they got me
00:17:05.260 on the jurisdictional challenge
00:17:06.380 but they also violated
00:17:07.380 my rights in doing so
00:17:08.480 so now
00:17:09.320 there's a process
00:17:10.360 that we're going to go through
00:17:11.260 and hopefully
00:17:11.760 I can't divulge
00:17:13.020 too much more
00:17:13.720 but now what I can do is
00:17:15.420 with all these transcripts
00:17:17.000 to everybody else
00:17:17.820 and they made a point
00:17:18.700 in my court case
00:17:19.780 the Rook versus Alberta case
00:17:22.460 where they've summons
00:17:23.360 everybody
00:17:24.140 who had violated
00:17:25.940 any of these COVID rules
00:17:27.500 they're waiting
00:17:28.460 on the determination
00:17:29.200 of thousands
00:17:30.160 and thousands
00:17:30.980 of tickets
00:17:31.540 and summonses
00:17:33.520 and the results
00:17:34.420 of those will come
00:17:35.320 well what we did
00:17:36.140 was we laid the foundation
00:17:37.580 for everybody's court case now
00:17:39.040 so everybody's court case
00:17:40.600 will go exactly
00:17:41.380 the way I am
00:17:42.080 and what they need to do
00:17:43.440 and everybody needs to do
00:17:44.880 is you need to challenge
00:17:46.140 the Public Health Act
00:17:47.200 in your provinces
00:17:47.900 in your states
00:17:49.060 in your
00:17:50.320 wherever you are
00:17:51.680 you file
00:17:52.640 a challenge
00:17:54.640 against these health acts
00:17:55.940 and that way
00:17:56.820 the judge
00:17:57.340 has no
00:17:58.040 no recourse
00:17:59.660 she has to subpoena
00:18:01.100 the government officials
00:18:02.980 that are responsible
00:18:03.740 for this
00:18:04.240 it goes on
00:18:04.900 for another seven minutes
00:18:05.800 you can find
00:18:06.680 this video everywhere
00:18:08.000 except on YouTube
00:18:08.820 of course
00:18:09.320 because they banned it
00:18:11.360 I presume
00:18:12.140 because it questions
00:18:13.260 the existence
00:18:13.880 of the COVID virus
00:18:14.760 at all
00:18:15.240 which YouTube
00:18:16.240 censors
00:18:17.140 they don't allow you
00:18:17.880 to even talk
00:18:18.280 about that possibility
00:18:19.180 by the way
00:18:21.640 I believe the COVID virus
00:18:22.820 is a thing
00:18:23.440 I just have
00:18:24.080 questions about
00:18:25.540 what we should do
00:18:26.080 about it
00:18:26.660 but you can see
00:18:28.340 how exciting
00:18:28.780 this video is
00:18:29.680 how hopeful
00:18:30.700 it is
00:18:31.280 how persuasive
00:18:32.460 I mean
00:18:33.960 you just heard
00:18:34.520 Stu Peters
00:18:35.320 I know you've never
00:18:36.800 seen him before
00:18:38.240 I don't know
00:18:39.040 if he's ever been
00:18:39.580 to Canada
00:18:40.060 he didn't know
00:18:41.420 that the lockdowns
00:18:42.280 and mask mandates
00:18:42.980 had been lifted
00:18:43.700 in Alberta
00:18:44.160 more than a month
00:18:44.820 before he recorded
00:18:45.460 his video
00:18:45.900 but boy
00:18:46.920 did he know
00:18:47.700 what's what
00:18:48.340 this is going to
00:18:49.460 pull the whole racket
00:18:50.280 down
00:18:50.700 and Patrick King
00:18:52.940 was loving
00:18:53.400 every second
00:18:53.900 but he was
00:18:54.400 the guru
00:18:54.820 not even the guru
00:18:55.640 that implies
00:18:56.740 he was some
00:18:57.480 sophisticated
00:18:58.200 master strategist
00:19:00.900 it was more
00:19:01.600 he was David
00:19:02.440 slaying Goliath
00:19:03.720 it was more
00:19:04.120 the lopsidedness
00:19:05.040 that was the miracle
00:19:05.860 all the big lawyers
00:19:07.260 the fancy lawyers
00:19:07.980 failed
00:19:08.460 no one has managed
00:19:09.660 to stop the lockdowns
00:19:10.640 but he did
00:19:11.620 David and Goliath
00:19:12.920 you heard a bit there
00:19:14.140 that he was having
00:19:15.160 some procedural
00:19:15.840 troubles in court
00:19:16.580 but that didn't
00:19:17.180 seem to stop him
00:19:18.100 it was a very
00:19:19.680 high energy conversation
00:19:20.960 and he was really
00:19:21.820 both of them
00:19:22.540 were really running
00:19:23.080 with it
00:19:23.520 and he says
00:19:24.860 he's got the template
00:19:25.540 to save everything
00:19:26.780 so who on earth
00:19:29.360 could possibly
00:19:30.120 be against this
00:19:31.040 well I'm not
00:19:33.340 except that it's
00:19:35.740 not actually right
00:19:36.600 and that's why
00:19:37.400 I think perhaps
00:19:38.020 people are so mad
00:19:38.740 at me for mentioning
00:19:39.420 on my noon
00:19:40.020 live stream yesterday
00:19:41.260 that it just
00:19:42.820 didn't happen
00:19:44.000 the way they said
00:19:44.980 I'm sorry
00:19:46.060 I wish it did
00:19:46.820 I read the transcript
00:19:49.240 of Patrick King's
00:19:50.420 first appearance
00:19:51.060 in court
00:19:51.520 earlier this year
00:19:52.760 and I read
00:19:54.600 what he was charged
00:19:55.260 with an illegal
00:19:56.000 gathering
00:19:56.560 more than 10 people
00:19:58.520 and I read the testimony
00:19:59.480 of the two RCMP officers
00:20:00.980 who testified against him
00:20:02.660 and I read what the judge
00:20:03.460 had to say
00:20:04.060 and then Patrick King
00:20:06.300 who was defending himself
00:20:07.680 said he wanted to
00:20:08.400 call as a witness
00:20:09.740 excuse me
00:20:10.820 Dina Hinshaw
00:20:12.680 Alberta's public health
00:20:13.660 officer
00:20:14.040 but because he didn't
00:20:15.540 have a lawyer
00:20:16.620 and he didn't
00:20:17.780 know he was going
00:20:19.260 to call
00:20:19.720 Dina Hinshaw
00:20:20.580 the public health officer
00:20:21.480 and he didn't know
00:20:22.540 how to do it
00:20:23.440 so the judge
00:20:25.080 sort of paused
00:20:25.720 the trial
00:20:26.180 and said well
00:20:26.760 if you want to
00:20:28.180 call a witness
00:20:28.720 you go and
00:20:29.620 you subpoena a witness
00:20:30.540 and so we'll take
00:20:31.620 a break
00:20:31.940 so you can do that
00:20:32.920 and then we'll
00:20:33.220 come back
00:20:33.840 the judge was sort
00:20:35.560 of helping him
00:20:36.460 out a bit
00:20:36.940 not being his lawyer
00:20:38.020 but sort of telling him
00:20:38.940 what he should do
00:20:40.400 if he wanted to run
00:20:41.240 the trial himself
00:20:42.020 so he did that
00:20:44.420 but because he didn't
00:20:45.280 really know
00:20:45.760 what he was doing
00:20:46.500 he got a justice
00:20:47.780 of the peace
00:20:48.380 to issue the subpoena
00:20:50.020 not a proper
00:20:50.860 court justice
00:20:53.200 as required
00:20:53.880 under the law
00:20:54.460 so the government
00:20:55.980 had that subpoena
00:20:57.120 thrown out
00:20:57.760 and as you saw
00:20:58.780 on Stu Peter's show
00:20:59.680 one of the things
00:21:00.320 the government said
00:21:01.120 besides that the subpoena
00:21:02.880 wasn't issued
00:21:03.740 properly by the right judge
00:21:05.420 is that Dina Hinshaw
00:21:07.200 had nothing to say
00:21:08.020 about his arrest
00:21:08.620 or his ticket
00:21:09.340 she had no material
00:21:10.820 information
00:21:11.520 now material
00:21:13.640 is a legal term
00:21:14.520 that means relevant
00:21:15.660 literally it means
00:21:16.800 having to do
00:21:17.400 with the matter
00:21:18.080 at hand
00:21:18.740 material matter
00:21:20.220 what's the matter
00:21:21.040 at hand
00:21:21.540 do you have any
00:21:22.220 material evidence
00:21:23.200 don't talk about
00:21:23.860 this or that
00:21:24.400 talk about the matter
00:21:25.420 at hand
00:21:25.720 that's what material
00:21:26.440 means
00:21:26.960 so the public health
00:21:29.640 officer in Edmonton
00:21:30.620 who's never heard
00:21:31.300 of this guy before
00:21:32.060 who was not there
00:21:32.860 in Red Deer that day
00:21:33.760 didn't want to come down
00:21:35.520 from Edmonton
00:21:36.080 to Red Deer
00:21:36.480 to testify the trial
00:21:37.480 of a guy who was
00:21:38.040 being fined
00:21:38.500 $1200 for being
00:21:39.340 in an anti-lockdown
00:21:40.180 gathering
00:21:40.540 she had no
00:21:41.260 material evidence
00:21:41.960 to give
00:21:42.360 she said the subpoena
00:21:44.980 wasn't done right
00:21:45.760 and that she has
00:21:46.340 nothing to say
00:21:46.880 she had no evidence
00:21:47.740 about what happened
00:21:48.580 that day in Red Deer
00:21:49.900 that's what material
00:21:50.600 evidence means
00:21:51.200 but Patrick King
00:21:53.120 and Stu Peters
00:21:54.100 thought that that
00:21:55.080 meant she was
00:21:55.800 admitting
00:21:56.260 that COVID-19
00:21:58.040 doesn't even exist
00:21:59.480 and she has no
00:22:00.800 evidence that it does
00:22:01.860 that's the
00:22:02.500 no material evidence
00:22:03.700 they thought that
00:22:04.780 meant
00:22:05.120 it's not what
00:22:05.960 that was about
00:22:06.600 it's just
00:22:08.200 not what she said
00:22:09.120 it's not what she
00:22:10.180 meant
00:22:10.360 and Patrick King
00:22:11.200 who made a number
00:22:11.920 of legal errors
00:22:12.780 and that's not his fault
00:22:14.700 since he's not a lawyer
00:22:15.780 he made another legal error
00:22:17.740 misunderstanding
00:22:18.480 what the word material
00:22:20.200 means in a legal setting
00:22:22.420 in the end here
00:22:23.980 he said
00:22:24.500 the answer is to challenge
00:22:26.180 the public health laws
00:22:27.560 in every province
00:22:28.540 I think that's true
00:22:30.100 but he's not doing that
00:22:32.260 the judge specifically
00:22:34.080 told him that
00:22:34.820 if you're going to
00:22:35.740 challenge the law itself
00:22:36.980 by challenging
00:22:37.620 its constitutionality
00:22:39.000 by saying that law
00:22:40.820 even though it was passed
00:22:42.520 it's improper
00:22:44.120 it's invalid
00:22:44.860 if you're saying
00:22:45.620 for example
00:22:46.280 it's not a reasonable
00:22:48.600 limit on free speech
00:22:49.500 or freedom of assembly
00:22:50.360 or there's no justification
00:22:51.840 for it
00:22:52.620 because of the nature
00:22:53.300 of the virus
00:22:53.880 and I think
00:22:54.940 those are his arguments
00:22:56.080 the judge pointed out
00:22:58.120 to him
00:22:58.440 that in Canadian courts
00:22:59.540 there's a rule
00:23:00.680 that you have to give
00:23:01.940 the government
00:23:02.500 advance notice
00:23:03.900 that you're challenging
00:23:05.320 the constitutionality
00:23:06.600 of a law
00:23:07.020 you can't just come up
00:23:08.400 with that plan
00:23:09.420 on the spot
00:23:10.120 you have to give
00:23:10.860 the government
00:23:11.300 some notice
00:23:11.960 so Patrick King
00:23:13.340 didn't do that
00:23:14.100 because he didn't
00:23:14.680 know he had to do that
00:23:15.740 now the good news
00:23:17.600 is that other lawyers
00:23:19.560 are challenging
00:23:20.640 the constitutionality
00:23:21.800 of various lockdown laws
00:23:23.140 Sarah Miller
00:23:24.460 one of our
00:23:25.020 Fight the Fines lawyers
00:23:25.780 is in court
00:23:26.660 before the Federal
00:23:27.380 Court of Appeal
00:23:28.040 fighting against
00:23:29.000 the quarantine laws
00:23:30.020 and she remembered
00:23:31.900 to serve notice
00:23:33.080 to the government
00:23:33.560 that she's challenging
00:23:34.240 the constitutionality
00:23:35.100 of the law
00:23:35.440 she remembered
00:23:36.120 because she's a lawyer
00:23:36.880 she's also fighting
00:23:38.780 for Arthur Pawlowski
00:23:39.700 and she raised
00:23:41.540 charter issues there too
00:23:43.060 and she remembered
00:23:43.680 to serve notice
00:23:44.860 and Chad Williamson
00:23:45.780 another one of our lawyers
00:23:46.680 in Calgary
00:23:47.300 is doing the same
00:23:48.220 for other clients
00:23:49.380 including Chris Scott
00:23:50.520 of the Whistle Stop
00:23:51.440 Diner in Mirror, Alberta
00:23:53.140 and they all remembered
00:23:54.580 to serve their
00:23:56.320 constitutional notice
00:23:57.060 and they know
00:23:57.580 a subpoena
00:23:58.300 has to be issued
00:23:59.180 so I agree
00:24:00.260 it is important
00:24:00.920 to challenge
00:24:01.340 the underlying rationale
00:24:02.700 for these laws
00:24:03.520 that infringe
00:24:03.960 on our rights
00:24:04.480 Patrick King
00:24:05.580 didn't know
00:24:07.360 that he had to
00:24:08.180 do it in a certain way
00:24:09.680 because he's not a lawyer
00:24:10.420 he didn't know
00:24:11.480 how to subpoena
00:24:12.140 the health officer
00:24:12.860 because he's not a lawyer
00:24:14.000 I'm not making fun of him
00:24:15.360 those are expert things
00:24:17.460 just like medical doctors
00:24:19.440 know expert things
00:24:20.520 about medicine
00:24:21.120 or engineers
00:24:21.920 or accountants
00:24:23.040 they all know
00:24:23.540 expert things
00:24:24.180 if you're not
00:24:24.620 if you're a layman
00:24:26.220 it's not embarrassing
00:24:27.520 that you don't know
00:24:28.400 expert things
00:24:29.180 it doesn't even
00:24:30.280 have to be a profession
00:24:31.080 how about skilled trades
00:24:33.100 welding
00:24:34.460 carpentry
00:24:35.300 those aren't professions
00:24:36.400 but skilled trades
00:24:37.280 and the tickets to practice
00:24:38.720 that's a special knowledge too
00:24:40.500 and it's not embarrassing
00:24:42.080 if you don't know
00:24:42.800 how to do it
00:24:43.600 because you're not a welder
00:24:45.040 just don't pretend
00:24:46.400 you're an expert welder then
00:24:48.260 but what we have here
00:24:50.320 in this viral video
00:24:51.560 that a hundred people
00:24:53.060 have sent me
00:24:53.780 is that two guys
00:24:56.400 neither of whom
00:24:58.080 are experts
00:24:58.980 neither of whom
00:24:59.520 are lawyers
00:24:59.880 one of whom
00:25:00.400 doesn't sound like
00:25:01.420 he even knows
00:25:01.840 much about Canada
00:25:02.500 they're saying
00:25:03.480 that Patrick King's
00:25:04.620 homemade lawyering
00:25:05.900 actually not only won
00:25:08.080 but freed the whole province
00:25:10.220 and will free the rest
00:25:12.120 of the country
00:25:12.780 and will prove
00:25:14.700 that this whole thing
00:25:15.440 is a hoax
00:25:15.880 if only you do
00:25:17.220 what he says
00:25:17.920 that's not true
00:25:20.240 and that's not what happened
00:25:21.360 now why do I care
00:25:24.040 I could spend
00:25:25.980 my entire life
00:25:26.740 trying to correct things
00:25:27.680 on the internet
00:25:28.180 that are wrong
00:25:29.140 it's infinite
00:25:30.580 I suppose just believing
00:25:32.320 in the truth
00:25:32.860 is some reason
00:25:33.920 but like I say
00:25:34.840 you will never have time
00:25:36.600 to do anything else
00:25:37.460 in your life
00:25:37.920 if you just try
00:25:38.620 and correct errors
00:25:39.200 on the internet
00:25:39.660 the reason I care
00:25:41.720 is because a hundred rebels
00:25:42.880 have asked me
00:25:43.640 and because we know
00:25:45.780 something about this issue
00:25:46.980 it's been our central
00:25:48.080 fight for the last year
00:25:49.760 and a half
00:25:50.280 and we don't want
00:25:52.420 our people
00:25:53.220 to be misled
00:25:55.020 by a self-styled guru
00:25:56.340 who actually
00:25:57.020 has no idea
00:25:58.420 at all
00:25:59.180 what he's doing
00:25:59.920 and if someone
00:26:00.940 were to actually
00:26:01.560 really rely on his ideas
00:26:02.680 they could lose
00:26:03.300 and lose badly
00:26:04.100 at great cost
00:26:05.480 to themselves
00:26:05.940 why would people
00:26:07.780 believe him
00:26:08.320 because they have
00:26:08.980 lost all faith
00:26:09.760 in the establishment
00:26:10.500 in the government
00:26:11.160 in the courts
00:26:12.320 and judges
00:26:12.880 and lawyers
00:26:13.460 and the law itself
00:26:14.700 at the very beginning
00:26:16.560 of his trial
00:26:18.100 in the first part
00:26:18.780 Patrick King
00:26:19.400 you can see here
00:26:20.500 he tries that weird
00:26:21.600 free man of the land
00:26:23.040 your laws don't apply
00:26:25.140 to me thing
00:26:25.840 where he suggests
00:26:26.560 that the court
00:26:27.020 isn't even a proper court
00:26:28.240 isn't even real
00:26:29.400 and the judge
00:26:30.400 throws that out
00:26:31.240 in about five seconds
00:26:32.800 she's heard that before
00:26:34.220 look people are desperate
00:26:35.920 the law isn't working
00:26:37.200 for so many people anymore
00:26:38.960 so that people
00:26:39.700 make up their own law
00:26:40.800 except that won't work either
00:26:42.660 and it's not working here
00:26:43.840 and it didn't work here
00:26:44.920 I have no beef
00:26:46.260 with a guy
00:26:47.200 fighting like hell
00:26:48.240 I don't know much
00:26:49.580 about Patrick King
00:26:50.380 I know he
00:26:51.100 you know
00:26:52.000 he's squabbled
00:26:52.740 with Antifa before
00:26:53.820 I don't like Antifa
00:26:54.680 one bit
00:26:55.080 he organized
00:26:55.820 an anti-Antifa rally
00:26:57.880 in Red Deer
00:26:59.080 there was a scuffle there
00:26:59.920 I don't think
00:27:00.300 he was involved
00:27:00.820 in the scuffle himself
00:27:01.620 I know he was on
00:27:03.560 the United We Roll
00:27:04.320 convoy for a bit
00:27:05.600 he's obviously
00:27:06.900 a lockdown skeptic
00:27:08.180 alright
00:27:08.680 for those reasons
00:27:10.380 some people
00:27:10.960 are telling me
00:27:11.480 to stop criticizing
00:27:12.600 what he said
00:27:13.360 Canadians are worried
00:27:22.400 about a fourth wave
00:27:23.280 of COVID-19
00:27:24.100 the dangerous
00:27:25.120 Delta variant
00:27:25.880 is here
00:27:26.460 and we have to be ready
00:27:27.820 now is not the time
00:27:29.600 for an election
00:27:30.120 we can all wait
00:27:31.160 and go to the polls
00:27:32.220 when it's safe
00:27:33.240 we need to focus
00:27:34.640 on health
00:27:35.720 and well-being
00:27:36.440 securing our economic future
00:27:38.220 and fighting
00:27:39.000 COVID-19 together
00:27:40.100 my wife and I
00:27:40.840 had COVID
00:27:41.380 like many families
00:27:42.700 we want to get past
00:27:44.000 this pandemic
00:27:44.580 but let's pull together
00:27:46.120 for one more fight
00:27:47.160 let's beat COVID-19
00:27:48.820 and have an election
00:27:50.040 when it's safe
00:27:50.920 a shocking new ad
00:27:57.740 by the conservative
00:27:58.960 party leader
00:27:59.640 Aaron O'Toole
00:28:00.220 I call it shocking
00:28:01.540 because I think
00:28:03.300 if that was
00:28:04.080 Justin Trudeau
00:28:05.280 saying every one
00:28:06.840 of those words
00:28:07.620 and saying
00:28:08.240 well I don't want
00:28:09.300 to have the election
00:28:10.040 and here's all my
00:28:11.060 reasons
00:28:11.480 I think it would be
00:28:13.500 exactly Trudeau's
00:28:14.620 message too
00:28:15.460 live in fear
00:28:17.000 be afraid
00:28:17.860 be terrified
00:28:18.540 we're not ready
00:28:19.340 for none of this
00:28:19.940 voting stuff
00:28:20.740 and let's not
00:28:22.600 have an election
00:28:23.280 things are just
00:28:23.960 fine the way they are
00:28:24.860 I think that it is
00:28:26.500 I think it's a disaster
00:28:29.160 in terms of ideology
00:28:30.420 and tone
00:28:31.640 and the message
00:28:32.480 but I'm not the only one
00:28:34.420 who thinks this way
00:28:35.340 a much more rational
00:28:37.200 and reasonable man
00:28:38.020 than me
00:28:38.540 in fact brought this
00:28:39.680 to my attention
00:28:40.440 it's our friend
00:28:41.680 Andrew Lawton
00:28:42.480 of TNC.news
00:28:44.140 and you can find him
00:28:45.020 every time
00:28:46.400 at andrewlawtonshow.com
00:28:47.980 Andrew
00:28:48.340 I'm a critic
00:28:50.740 of Aaron O'Toole
00:28:51.940 and so I think
00:28:52.620 sometimes my viewers
00:28:53.440 say oh Ezra
00:28:54.280 you're just mad
00:28:54.920 at Aaron O'Toole
00:28:55.520 again
00:28:55.800 but you had a
00:28:57.060 very illuminating
00:28:58.580 thread of comments
00:28:59.680 on Twitter
00:29:00.200 about this
00:29:01.100 why don't you
00:29:01.680 give me your take
00:29:02.800 on that new
00:29:03.980 Aaron O'Toole ad
00:29:05.080 yeah there are
00:29:07.060 a couple of
00:29:07.760 big problems
00:29:08.780 I have with this
00:29:09.700 number one
00:29:10.460 is that I've
00:29:11.180 broken down
00:29:12.000 what's behind this
00:29:13.600 into two main
00:29:14.800 theses if you will
00:29:16.060 one is that
00:29:16.780 the conservatives
00:29:17.420 are true believers
00:29:19.240 in this COVID
00:29:20.140 alarmism
00:29:20.780 they genuinely
00:29:21.520 believe that
00:29:22.360 this so-called
00:29:23.360 fourth wave
00:29:24.060 is an existential
00:29:24.740 thread and you
00:29:25.600 can't have an
00:29:26.080 election in a
00:29:27.180 fourth wave
00:29:27.660 the other alternative
00:29:28.620 theory is that
00:29:29.600 they are
00:29:30.240 politicking
00:29:31.300 they are pretty
00:29:32.240 convinced Justin
00:29:33.060 Trudeau is going
00:29:33.620 to do an election
00:29:34.280 anyway so they
00:29:35.480 just want to put
00:29:36.340 another tool in
00:29:37.180 their toolbox to
00:29:38.360 be able to say
00:29:39.100 when that time
00:29:39.800 comes that oh
00:29:40.500 they're being
00:29:40.960 irresponsible we
00:29:42.260 didn't want the
00:29:42.860 election we
00:29:43.840 didn't ask for
00:29:44.540 it that was all
00:29:45.360 them either one
00:29:47.360 of those is bad
00:29:48.780 news for
00:29:49.480 conservative
00:29:50.040 Canadians and
00:29:50.880 there are two
00:29:51.420 big reasons for
00:29:52.220 this because it's
00:29:53.300 been people on
00:29:54.180 the right by and
00:29:55.060 large small c
00:29:56.020 conservatives that
00:29:57.240 have been the
00:29:57.660 most fed up with
00:29:58.620 lockdowns the one
00:29:59.660 of the ones that
00:30:00.520 have been the most
00:30:01.020 eager to get back
00:30:01.940 to normal
00:30:02.460 Alberta for
00:30:03.640 example is a
00:30:04.440 province that has
00:30:05.120 quite relished its
00:30:06.680 status as being
00:30:07.560 mask-free virtually
00:30:08.740 restriction-free right
00:30:10.000 now and for
00:30:11.220 Aaron O'Toole to
00:30:11.900 say oh no it's so
00:30:12.620 dangerous we can't
00:30:13.540 even vote we have
00:30:14.520 to have an election
00:30:15.160 when it's safe he's
00:30:16.660 at odds with where a
00:30:17.680 lot of his base is as
00:30:19.240 far as the pandemic
00:30:20.180 and the risk the
00:30:21.520 other side of this
00:30:22.460 though is that for
00:30:23.620 the last two years
00:30:24.840 the conservatives have
00:30:25.860 been saying that the
00:30:26.680 liberals are corrupt
00:30:27.620 they spend too much
00:30:28.880 money they've
00:30:30.120 mishandled the
00:30:30.780 pandemic they
00:30:31.420 didn't prepare they
00:30:32.300 aren't prepared for
00:30:32.980 the next one whereas
00:30:34.180 what O'Toole's now
00:30:35.100 saying is if we are in
00:30:36.780 this existential threat
00:30:37.840 Trudeau's the guy to
00:30:39.060 bring us through it
00:30:39.900 that that's what he's
00:30:40.840 saying things are so
00:30:41.660 bad right now Trudeau's
00:30:43.200 got to be the one to
00:30:44.160 look after it so I have
00:30:45.560 no idea how on earth
00:30:46.860 this messaging helps
00:30:48.440 the conservatives or
00:30:49.420 team O'Toole yeah even
00:30:51.000 if they are terrified of
00:30:52.460 an election and think
00:30:53.440 they're going to get
00:30:53.980 smoked and a lot of
00:30:55.400 the latest polls show
00:30:56.260 it I know that abacus
00:30:57.460 polls are chaired by a
00:30:59.720 liberal activist named
00:31:00.620 Bruce Anderson so I
00:31:01.540 take them with a bit of
00:31:02.260 a grain of salt but I
00:31:04.240 tell you it's the lowest
00:31:04.920 poll numbers I've seen
00:31:05.920 yet I think O'Toole's at
00:31:06.940 25 percent just ahead of
00:31:09.540 the NDP but even if
00:31:11.460 those polls are real to
00:31:13.440 show this level of fear
00:31:15.540 of an election like
00:31:16.720 they're called a
00:31:17.440 government in waiting
00:31:18.460 they're called shadow
00:31:19.740 ministers they're supposed
00:31:21.220 to be critics they're
00:31:22.220 supposed to oppose he
00:31:23.800 didn't really criticize
00:31:24.800 anything he didn't really
00:31:26.100 oppose anything he just
00:31:27.540 doesn't want an election
00:31:28.620 and by implication he's
00:31:30.580 saying well everything
00:31:31.300 Trudeau is doing now is
00:31:33.380 better than if we had an
00:31:34.840 election to change it
00:31:35.860 but you're right some of
00:31:37.180 the words he used I just
00:31:38.180 jotted them down Canadians
00:31:39.880 are worried it's a
00:31:41.940 dangerous of a variant
00:31:44.820 when it's safe we can
00:31:47.060 come out we're going to
00:31:48.700 fight this together just
00:31:49.660 one more fight folks just
00:31:51.120 one more and he said
00:31:54.120 when it's safe I think
00:31:55.020 twice in there that's
00:31:58.160 exactly the language of
00:31:59.840 the public health deep
00:32:00.980 state and I'm left
00:32:01.960 scratching my head Andrew
00:32:03.020 and thinking again is
00:32:04.900 there any difference
00:32:06.300 between O'Toole and
00:32:07.320 Trudeau on carbon taxes
00:32:09.640 open borders immigration
00:32:11.220 O'Toole hasn't said a
00:32:13.300 word about the latest
00:32:14.160 censorship proposals and
00:32:16.400 here we are now he's
00:32:17.960 using the same rhetoric as
00:32:19.420 Trudeau on the pandemic I'm
00:32:21.840 just very disappointed
00:32:23.220 well we had just this week
00:32:26.040 Dina Hinshaw the chief
00:32:27.500 public health advisor in
00:32:28.920 Alberta come out and say
00:32:30.020 the priority needs to be
00:32:31.560 learning to live with
00:32:32.420 COVID and this is what I
00:32:34.060 think most of the
00:32:34.800 optimistic people have been
00:32:36.140 saying yeah it's always
00:32:37.100 going to be around in some
00:32:38.260 way we work around it we
00:32:39.600 protect the vulnerable but
00:32:41.320 we get back to normal
00:32:42.720 otherwise we are in this
00:32:44.040 perpetual permanent years
00:32:45.720 long lockdown so living with
00:32:48.120 that means having elections it
00:32:49.720 doesn't mean suspending
00:32:50.780 democracy because of a
00:32:52.920 mythical fourth wave fifth
00:32:54.380 wave sixth wave the 75th
00:32:56.100 wave that'll be coming just
00:32:57.180 around the corner now when
00:32:58.420 he says have an election
00:32:59.640 when it's safe when's he
00:33:01.680 talking about how long do
00:33:03.900 elections does the
00:33:05.200 democratic right of a voter
00:33:07.120 to elect a government how
00:33:08.480 long does that get
00:33:09.740 suspended because of COVID is
00:33:12.000 it for two years for three
00:33:13.320 years what happens if it's
00:33:15.080 so quote-unquote dangerous
00:33:16.820 dangerous until the end of
00:33:18.800 when Justin Trudeau's term
00:33:20.800 technically expires and this
00:33:22.980 is why it's so ridiculous
00:33:24.180 we've had in Canada in
00:33:26.020 various provinces and
00:33:27.100 outside of Canada numerous
00:33:28.860 elections that have been
00:33:29.940 held without issue when at
00:33:32.220 times when case counts
00:33:33.680 hospitalizations and death
00:33:35.120 counts were a lot higher
00:33:36.180 than they are now so to say
00:33:38.020 that it's too dangerous and
00:33:39.560 I should qualify this Ezra I've
00:33:41.600 had a few of Aaron O'Toole's
00:33:42.960 defenders come at me since I
00:33:44.760 posted that Twitter thread
00:33:46.180 saying oh well it's just
00:33:47.060 strategy he's just trying to
00:33:48.480 do this thing so that he can
00:33:50.140 call Trudeau irresponsible
00:33:51.400 I'm not interested in
00:33:53.400 politicking on this my
00:33:55.240 interest right now is in
00:33:56.880 getting back to normal and
00:33:58.220 living my life and the
00:33:59.860 problem I have is that for
00:34:01.200 the last 18 months it's been
00:34:03.300 alarmist and fear mongers in
00:34:05.220 politicians and in in
00:34:07.220 political class and in the
00:34:08.700 media that have been getting
00:34:09.640 in the way of that
00:34:10.380 happening so I do not give
00:34:12.260 any politician that stokes
00:34:14.100 more of this fear the benefit
00:34:15.920 of the doubt because this
00:34:17.080 idea that it's too scary to
00:34:18.540 have an election right now is
00:34:20.220 exactly the attitude that's
00:34:21.740 keeping people like me in
00:34:22.900 Ontario like you in Ontario
00:34:24.700 under restrictions long after
00:34:27.220 they are necessary if they ever
00:34:28.680 were yeah you know by the way I
00:34:32.140 just show this early in the
00:34:33.960 show if you look at Teresa
00:34:36.480 Tam's official map of Canada and
00:34:39.440 if you select it to show you the
00:34:41.020 count of deaths in the last seven
00:34:44.360 days in the entire country 38
00:34:47.960 million souls only about 60
00:34:50.500 people have passed away in the
00:34:51.700 last week that's less than 10 a
00:34:54.040 day on average in half a dozen
00:34:56.240 provinces and territories there
00:34:58.340 hasn't been a single death in at
00:35:00.160 least a week and I'm not saying
00:35:02.200 that 60 deaths are nothing but I'm
00:35:03.960 saying it is not grounds to stop a
00:35:07.840 national election listen if grocery
00:35:10.120 workers and gas station workers and
00:35:13.040 if delivery boys and girls can work
00:35:15.940 through this surely some politicians
00:35:18.380 can have an election I just the the
00:35:22.000 excuse ology here does not sound very
00:35:24.600 conservative and let me quote the
00:35:27.380 public health deep state again when we
00:35:28.800 got started they just said 15 days to
00:35:31.660 flatten the curve they didn't say zero
00:35:34.100 kovat they said just get it under
00:35:36.060 control so we don't swamp our
00:35:37.500 hospitals mission accomplished they
00:35:40.080 never said we're gonna lock down till
00:35:42.060 the case count is zero they just said
00:35:44.220 let's make sure that we don't
00:35:45.640 overwhelm our hospitals well that has
00:35:47.020 never happened in Canada and it's
00:35:48.700 sure not happening now I don't know I
00:35:50.420 just I just every week my
00:35:53.240 expectations which are already low are
00:35:56.100 not low enough and I have to start
00:35:57.480 digging a new basement level for this
00:36:00.240 conservative party how do you think
00:36:01.800 they're gonna do I think Trudeau is
00:36:03.300 gonna call the election I think he's
00:36:05.600 gonna win I think he's gonna get a
00:36:06.920 majority and I think O'Toole is gonna
00:36:08.980 lose probably 20 seats well I don't
00:36:11.680 think when I to go back to my theories
00:36:13.620 that I laid out at the beginning of our
00:36:15.100 chat Ezra I don't think the
00:36:16.700 conservatives are true believers I
00:36:18.260 don't think they believe this stuff I
00:36:19.780 think this is a calculation on their
00:36:22.180 part which does not excuse it at all
00:36:23.980 and the only reason they'd be doing it
00:36:26.060 is to either want to just be able to
00:36:28.540 accuse Justin Trudeau of being
00:36:29.900 reckless or because they know that an
00:36:32.260 election now is game over for them
00:36:34.600 that that is I think if you look at the
00:36:36.560 polls something that very realistically
00:36:38.620 could be driving a lot of this fear
00:36:40.480 we know it's why the NDP has been
00:36:42.560 saying it doesn't want an election
00:36:43.920 their financial situation as a party is
00:36:46.080 not good they can't afford an election
00:36:48.640 right now the conservatives simply
00:36:50.740 aren't ready the polls are not in their
00:36:52.960 favor they're still scrambling to get
00:36:55.020 candidates nominated but I will say the
00:36:58.000 conservatives like every other party are
00:37:00.680 sending their candidates out knocking on
00:37:02.720 doors they're having some events where
00:37:04.440 laws permit it they are campaigning so
00:37:07.580 this idea that it's unsafe to be
00:37:09.260 campaigning hasn't seemed to trickle down
00:37:11.140 to the actual people doing the
00:37:12.720 campaigning yeah you know yesterday Ron
00:37:16.560 DeSantis the governor of Florida
00:37:18.720 pushed back at Joe Biden because of the
00:37:21.980 federal lever in the United States they're
00:37:23.820 talking about mask mandates they're
00:37:25.560 talking about you know the Biden is
00:37:28.920 criticizing Florida really picking on
00:37:31.440 that state I can understand why I think
00:37:33.680 DeSantis is the front runner other than
00:37:36.500 Trump perhaps to be the presidential
00:37:39.340 candidate in 2024 but can I show you this
00:37:42.100 and I don't know if you've seen this it's
00:37:43.540 about five full minutes long it's DeSantis
00:37:47.260 standing up and naturally and without
00:37:51.040 sounding extreme just saying we're not
00:37:53.680 going back into lockdowns we're just not
00:37:55.620 doing it we're not locking down
00:37:57.420 businesses we're not losing jobs we're
00:37:59.560 not living in fear but most importantly
00:38:01.820 and he's so good at this part he's not
00:38:04.700 saying he's saying I will stop you Joe
00:38:07.100 Biden but he's saying it's the parents
00:38:09.380 who get to decide all these things
00:38:10.900 individuals can decide on vaccines
00:38:12.780 parents can decide on masks for kids so
00:38:15.840 he's not saying my way or your way he's
00:38:18.600 saying Biden and government versus
00:38:21.360 families I thought this was not only so
00:38:24.600 effective for DeSantis I thought this was
00:38:27.440 an absolute template for a conservative
00:38:30.960 in any country the United States Canada
00:38:34.380 Australia the United Kingdom anywhere to
00:38:38.240 push back against government extremism in
00:38:41.540 these lockdowns without sounding like a
00:38:43.340 kook or an extremist here have you seen
00:38:46.120 this let me just play just bear with me
00:38:48.420 and during play about five minutes let me know
00:38:50.860 what you think of this
00:38:51.820 well thanks we're excited to be here and
00:38:58.400 I just want to say something quickly
00:39:02.740 you know Joe Biden has taken to himself
00:39:06.420 to try to single out Florida
00:39:08.240 over COVID this is a guy who ran for
00:39:11.780 president saying he was going to quote
00:39:13.320 shut down the virus and what has he done
00:39:16.240 he's imported more virus from around the
00:39:18.880 world by having a wide open southern border
00:39:21.080 you have hundreds of thousands of people
00:39:23.640 pouring across every month and it's not just
00:39:26.660 from Mexico in fact it's rarely from Mexico
00:39:29.000 you have over a hundred different countries
00:39:31.440 where people are pouring through not only are they letting them through
00:39:35.180 they're then farming them out all across our communities across this country
00:39:39.660 putting them on planes putting them on buses
00:39:42.080 do you think they're being worried about COVID for that of course not so he's
00:39:46.960 facilitating who knows what new variants are out there but I can tell you
00:39:50.880 whatever variants are around the world they're coming across that southern border
00:39:54.460 and so he's not shutting down the virus he's helping to facilitate it in our
00:39:58.860 country and what is his big solution what is he so upset about Florida
00:40:03.120 his solution is he wants to have the government force kindergarteners to wear masks in school
00:40:11.220 he doesn't believe the parents should have a say in that he thinks that should be a decision
00:40:15.800 for the government well I can tell you in Florida the parents are going to be the ones in charge
00:40:20.260 of that decision
00:40:21.060 and one of the major medical people in his administration just recently told parents
00:40:34.300 that they should be wearing masks at home when they're around their own children
00:40:39.340 this is insane Joe Biden also believes that vaccination should be mandated by force of government
00:40:48.400 and that you should have to show vaccination status to be able to participate in society
00:40:53.560 now Florida we're very proud of our seniors first strategy
00:40:57.040 you look at the mortality in nursing homes among seniors it's declined dramatically
00:41:01.560 but we said from the beginning we're going to make it available for all
00:41:05.300 but we're not going to mandate it on anybody
00:41:07.420 that's ultimately an individual's choice to be able to do it
00:41:10.320 Biden he rejects science because he denies the fact that people that recover from COVID
00:41:17.600 have long-lasting immunity and that's been proven time and time again and the data is very clear
00:41:23.600 so his vision is just like in New York City restaurants should ban young kids from being able to go in
00:41:31.760 because they're not eligible for vaccination and law-abiding citizens have to produce proof
00:41:36.700 of their medical records just to go to the gym or attend an event or just to participate in everyday society
00:41:44.800 he wants that but yet if you want to vote he thinks it's too much of a burden to show a picture ID when you're voting
00:41:52.520 so no voter ID but have to show your medical papers just to be able to live in everyday life
00:41:58.160 give me a break and so I think the question is is we can either have a free society
00:42:03.740 or we can have a biomedical security state and I can tell you Florida we're a free state
00:42:10.160 people are going to be free to choose to make their own decisions about themselves about their families
00:42:15.340 about their kids education and about putting food on the table
00:42:19.220 and Joe Biden suggests that if you don't do lockdown policies then you should quote get out of the way
00:42:27.120 but let me tell you this if you're coming after the rights of parents in Florida
00:42:31.440 I'm standing in your way I'm not going to let you get away with it
00:42:34.620 if you're trying to deny kids a proper in-person education I'm going to stand in your way
00:42:45.340 and I'm going to stand up for the kids in Florida if you're trying to restrict people
00:42:48.880 impose mandates if you're trying to ruin their jobs and their livelihoods and their small business
00:42:54.080 if you are trying to lock people down I am standing in your way and I'm standing for the people of Florida
00:43:00.980 so why don't you do your job why don't you get this border secure and until you do that
00:43:07.880 I don't want to hear a blip about COVID from you thank you
00:43:12.180 Andrew I know that Ron DeSantis has several tools at his disposal that Aaron O'Toole doesn't
00:43:20.040 he is the governor he can make decisions he can block Joe Biden in a way that Aaron O'Toole couldn't do
00:43:27.380 but the language the confidence pushing back talking about individual decisions
00:43:32.460 either for vaccines or for parents and masks saying hey how come you're not closing the southern border
00:43:39.760 I can imagine O'Toole saying hey how come you haven't closed Roxham Road
00:43:43.540 how come you haven't stopped flights from China
00:43:45.880 like just the fact that he's not absolutely repeating back the message track of the lockdown is
00:43:53.200 I find that inspiring and hopeful and makes me think right on there's a guy who might actually win
00:43:59.440 at least maybe one day a conservative in Canada could give that kind of messaging a try
00:44:05.340 yeah it's not about having the legal authority it's about just being a leader it's about leadership
00:44:13.360 and it's about rhetoric at this point and the problem in Canada is that over the course of the
00:44:17.740 pandemic we've essentially been a liberal uniparty the official opposition has been very muted
00:44:24.280 the NDP the Bloc Québécois have been in lockstep with the liberals the conservatives have not wanted to push
00:44:30.860 too far because they don't want to be accused of seeking an election and as we've been talking about
00:44:36.000 going the other way so there is a huge opening for someone in Canadian politics to stand up
00:44:41.820 and start countering a lot of the fear-mongering and make it about choice I was actually in Florida
00:44:47.660 within the last couple of weeks and it was interesting because there's no mask mandate
00:44:51.680 a lot of people wear masks now I wasn't one of them because I'm of the mind that we had waves two
00:44:57.820 three and supposedly four in Canada well masks were required so I don't think they're doing what
00:45:03.480 all of the officials are saying they're supposed to do but you know what people in Florida were making
00:45:08.220 their own decisions people were respecting each other's space when that was warranted and if they
00:45:13.340 wanted to go and have fun at the beach or at the pool or go to a restaurant they could do that
00:45:18.040 and people could make decisions for themselves families could make decisions for themselves
00:45:23.580 what DeSantis is saying here is not about left and right it's about government versus the people
00:45:28.880 and the chasm between those two groups interest has been getting wider and wider for the last year
00:45:34.240 and a half yeah well I tell you I hope that someone becomes the anti-lockdown voice in Canada
00:45:40.340 Jason Kenney was the harshest lockdowner for about six or nine months there I think that really
00:45:47.060 antagonized his base his rural base Christian Albertans who were shocked by the arrest of pastors
00:45:54.240 but if that's largely behind him now other than a punitive prosecution of Arthur Pawlowski and his
00:46:01.300 brother for contempt I think that maybe Jason Kenney could be that anti-lockdown hero that Canada
00:46:09.340 desperately needs my god I hope he is listen Andrew great to see you thanks for letting me make you watch
00:46:15.260 that five minute video from Ron DeSantis but it's the best thing anytime it's always good to talk to you
00:46:21.180 right on great to see you folks just a reminder you can catch Andrew at andrewlaughtonshow.com
00:46:27.600 or tnc.news take care my friend you too all right stay with us more
00:46:32.460 on my show last night ma writes science which we are not allowed to question and dispute is not science
00:46:49.980 but a religious cult masquerading as science yeah I mean I really went deep on my own watching videos
00:46:57.020 of Feynman and reading his quotes he was what I wish Bill Nye the science guy was like just someone
00:47:04.320 who loved skepticism was genuinely curious explained real science and wasn't political boy we could use
00:47:10.720 a Dr. Feynman these days bold right the point of science is to question it by definition questioning
00:47:18.340 Fauci is entirely within reason yeah I mean that's actually the root of the word science it means to
00:47:24.060 observe to look to look skeptically Nick writes if you can question it it's science if you can't
00:47:31.980 it's propaganda yeah exactly and you know I quoted that one line from Shakespeare and forgive me I
00:47:38.000 always throw that into things it was a joke it's when Beatrice comes out and yeah yeah they they basically
00:47:45.280 mock Benedict and tell him he was wrong and he accepts it and he says you know we're lucky to mend our
00:47:56.980 flaws when critics point them out no one actually says that no one actually loves being proved wrong
00:48:05.080 it was a joke when Shakespeare said it but it's true anyways if you're proving that you're wrong on
00:48:12.060 something you can do better you can reform yourself but it's just the toughest thing in the world isn't
00:48:18.100 it don't you hate when people say I told you so I think that's why people are so mad when I call out
00:48:27.440 Patrick King and say you know he didn't have a winning court and that was sort of a bs video
00:48:32.760 people hate to hear that they hate to hear I told you so they hate to hear you're wrong Shakespeare
00:48:39.520 is correct no one likes to be criticized but I think the truth compels it that's a show for today
00:48:47.580 until tomorrow on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters good night keep fighting for fear
00:48:52.400 you
