Oh, hey, Rebels. I bet you were expecting to hear Ezra Levant's voice right here, but
00:00:04.040
it's not him. It's me, Sheila Gunn-Reed. I'm filling in for the big boss in the
00:00:07.840
big chair tonight. Tonight, we are talking about how there are still good people remaining at one
00:00:14.700
of the craziest, most authoritarian ministries in all of the Canadian government. We're talking
00:00:22.220
about a lone bureaucrat truth teller at Canadian Heritage. That's the censorship ministry. But
00:00:29.420
Canadian Heritage also oversees Sports Canada, and that's the ministry or agency that encourages
00:00:36.680
and develops minor sport in Canada. And one lone unidentified bureaucrat there produced a briefing
00:00:46.800
note telling the government that allowing biological males to play in female minor sports is dangerous
00:00:57.040
and unfair. That person's probably in a re-education camp right now. We're discussing that, and we are
00:01:03.320
also catching up with Katie Davis-Court. She's the post-millennial journalist who is working
00:01:08.020
alongside our Louis Brackpool and Lincoln Jay as they cover the Dutch farmer uprising against
00:01:15.260
climate change targets in Holland. Now, I'm sure you like listening to the show, but one of the best

00:02:07.920
Tonight, the liberals were told that allowing biological males to compete against women in
00:02:13.220
sports would indeed harm women. And the feminist liberals, well, they obviously ignored that
00:02:18.040
advice. Then post-millennials Katie Davis-Court joins us from the Netherlands to update us on her
00:02:23.660
work alongside our team there. It's July 13th, 2022. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed, and you're watching
00:02:43.220
You know, I might be cheering for public sector bureaucrats here. I know it's weird. I'll explain
00:02:51.020
it all in a second. But first, will you indulge me just a couple of minutes here? I want to show
00:02:55.740
you maybe 30 seconds of one clip and then 30 seconds of another. It's actually probably even
00:03:00.600
less than 30 seconds of each. But what I'm going to show you will show the stark contrast between male
00:03:05.640
and female athletes playing the exact same sport. And I chose this sport because it's an extreme contact
00:03:11.520
sport with no equipment. And I know a little bit about it. It's rugby. So let me set this up.
00:03:16.820
The Black Ferns are the New Zealand national women's rugby team. The All Blacks, that's the men's rugby
00:03:23.620
team. They are, in my opinion, and just my opinion, the two best teams in the world. Extraordinary in
00:03:29.620
their own right. But that's the point. In their own right. The women are strong. These women are
00:03:35.340
powerful. And boy, are they ever fast. For women. Okay, so here are the Ferns in gameplay. Watch this.
00:03:42.420
Goodness me. What an injection from her. And there she goes. Aisha Lettinger. Herder's won.
00:03:50.760
Heading for the line. Taken down by Corrigan. Great defence.
00:03:56.860
Big shot on Dumont. But she still manages to get the pass. And here's Tui again.
00:04:01.760
Ruby Tui. Down the outside. Stepping back into Goody. Finishes her off.
00:04:06.700
From Arahiana Marima Tauhinu. And they're away again. Here's Amy Dupassi. Down the sideline.
00:04:14.180
Has Ruby Tui. Tui steps inside. Ruby Tui now race for the line. And Tui will win it. And Tui gets a double.
00:04:24.100
They're amazing, right? Now here are their male counterparts. The All Blacks in gameplay. Look at this.
00:04:31.080
Okay. Nice group from Banks. Freed it away to Calloway. Ball knocked on. Here's Trouble. Here's Jordan.
00:04:39.120
Can't find anybody. Pops it up in the end for Havili. Havili. He'll go all the way.
00:04:48.440
Good start too for the new front row. They skirt it away to Webber. And space out wide. McKenzie.
00:04:55.740
McKenzie. And Jordan goes in. Takes it off the back. Makes some good ground too.
00:05:01.780
Rushing through the tackle. A little nugget getting a nice ball away to Christie.
00:05:06.000
Black at us there in support. Pops a lovely ball away to Jordan Barrett. McKenzie.
00:05:15.940
The difference is astounding. And that's not discrediting or devaluing the accomplishments
00:05:21.780
of those women. They are the best in their sport in the entire world. But they are biologically
00:05:27.140
different than men. It's clear they have not gone through testosterone puberty. Their hearts and
00:05:32.780
their lungs. They're just smaller. Their bones are less dense. They don't have the same ability to
00:05:38.340
gain and maintain lean muscle mass. They aren't as big or strong or as fast. It's reality. And it
00:05:44.740
doesn't take away anything from what they can do when on a level playing field. And that's important
00:05:50.340
here. Imagine if one of those all Blacks was suddenly now playing on a ladies team against
00:05:54.680
the ferns. Dangerous, right? And more importantly, it's gaslighting. We can see we're not blind.
00:06:00.900
And feelings? They don't undo science and biology. And it's astounding to me that some bureaucrat
00:06:06.580
within Canadian Heritage, which takes care of the portfolio of Sports Canada, felt the same way as me.
00:06:14.080
Bureaucrats within the Trudeau government tried to warn about the unfairness of biological males
00:06:20.320
competing against biological females in sports. I know. I'm shocked too. Let me show you. It's from
00:06:27.080
Black Locks today. And it's going to blow your mind. It's a good reminder that sometimes I am highly
00:06:33.120
critical of bureaucrats in government because they're supposed to be nonpartisan. But often
00:06:37.460
they're just an extension of the Liberal Party of Canada that we all pay for. And then some of these
00:06:43.080
people take their jobs very seriously. And when they are to give advice to the government, they give
00:06:47.700
advice. Real advice. Good advice. The advice made perfect sense, which is why you know the liberals
00:06:54.760
absolutely completely disregarded it. Anyway, from the great team at Black Locks just this morning,
00:07:01.260
and I don't want to give away too much of the article because it sits behind a paywall and that's how
00:07:06.860
they pay the bills over at Black Locks. It sounds like they obtained this through access to information
00:07:12.440
because when I went looking for this on the proactive disclosures website of the government
00:07:17.700
of Canada, I can't find the briefing note they mentioned here. So I filed for it myself this
00:07:22.780
afternoon. When we get it, you better believe I'm going to publish it. Anyway, here's what Black Locks
00:07:28.080
reports this morning. Transgender men have an unfair advantage in women's competition, says a briefing
00:07:34.520
note by the federal department that funds amateur sport. The Department of Canadian Heritage
00:07:39.540
has sidestepped public comment on allowing biological men to compete as women. The most current peer
00:07:47.420
reviewed science demonstrates significant male advantage in sport amplified through and after
00:07:53.460
puberty and that testosterone suppression in trans women does not mitigate the legacy effects of male
00:07:59.060
puberty, said the January 19th briefing note, gender equity and transgender inclusion in sport. Public
00:08:05.680
opinion research suggests a majority of Canadians believe sport organizations should find new ways
00:08:11.520
to include transgender identifying athletes that preserve fairness and physical safety for all,
00:08:16.900
it added. There is a growing debate in sport primarily focused on women's elite categories where
00:08:23.420
there are safety and fairness concerns regarding the inclusion of trans women who are physiologically
00:08:29.420
stronger, said the briefing note. However, trans men are both subject to anti-doping regulations in the
00:08:35.320
female category and biological disadvantage in the men's. Wow. Now, none of this is to say that trans
00:08:41.680
people should not participate in sports. I love minor sports. I think a lot of people do regardless of how
00:08:47.500
they choose to live their lives. But there has to be a better, more sportsmanlike way forward and we will
00:08:53.900
never come up with that better way. If we keep suggesting that we must deny biological reality in
00:09:00.180
the name of tolerance, we could, should and must find a way to sort this all out for all parties,
00:09:05.500
right? We put a man on the moon. Surely we can sort this one thing out. And please don't send me
00:09:09.960
emails about the moon landing being a soundstage, folks. I'm just using an expression here. Now,
00:09:14.640
I've got to tell you, this one lone common sense bureaucrat writing this briefing note probably
00:09:19.420
risked his or her career to say the right thing, to speak truth to power. He or she had to have known
00:09:25.080
the mob would come for them from within their own ministry. They're probably getting an HR re-education
00:09:31.160
right now. I mean, just look at what happened when bureaucrats at Sports Canada tried to reach out to
00:09:36.880
the common sense side of this onerous and I think unnecessarily complicated transgenderism in sports
00:09:43.380
debate when preparing a report. Because that's normally what you do, right? You try to look at all the
00:09:49.000
evidence before you make a decision, but that's apparently not allowed on this one issue. Take a
00:09:54.600
look at this. Sports Canada survey has been pulled after drawing a strong rebuke from over 200 athletes
00:10:02.120
and researchers. Canadian high-performance athletes received a survey that asked for their opinion on
00:10:07.480
the inclusion of trans women, biological males, in female categories as part of a research project
00:10:13.360
funded by the Canadian government. According to an outreach email seen by Extra, the survey was
00:10:19.520
commissioned by independent researcher Catherine Devine on behalf of Sport Canada, a part of the
00:10:25.320
Canadian government's Department of Canadian Heritage, which works to develop all levels of sports
00:10:30.580
in the country and to broaden everyone's ability to access sport. The email stated that the data from
00:10:36.440
the survey may one day appear in an academic journal. This survey investigates the views of Canadian
00:10:43.660
high-performance female athletes regarding both the International Olympic Committee framework and the
00:10:49.900
Canadian Centre for Ethics in Sport guidance for the inclusion of trans women, biological males in
00:10:56.060
female categories. The email read, female athletes are stakeholders in this area of policy and yet their views
00:11:02.860
are rarely heard. Please be assured that all responses are anonymous. Then the bullies came. Look at this.
00:11:09.040
In response to the survey, LGBTQ2S sports advocacy group Athlete Ally published the open letter from over
00:11:15.960
200 Canadian high-performance athletes and scholars pushing back on the survey for its quote transphobic
00:11:22.540
language. The term biological male features in many anti-trans bills around the world that seek to limit the
00:11:28.400
participation of mostly trans women in sports all the way down to the grassroots level. Opponents of
00:11:34.380
trans participation in sports based on their gender identity usually contend that trans women retain
00:11:40.620
athletic advantages if they medically transitioned after puberty. So here's to the people fighting for
00:11:47.800
the truth, fairness and for our daughters inside of Sport Canada. We see you. We're grateful and thanks for
00:11:53.660
putting it all on the line for our girls. After the break, we're joined by Katie Davis-Kort, the post-millennial
00:11:59.640
journalist working with our Dutch farmer protest team. Stay with us.
00:12:15.220
Right now in the Netherlands, farmers are rising up against climate change targets. Really, these things come
00:12:22.160
from the world economic forum and actually, unfortunately, Canada through a treaty just ratified by the Dutch
00:12:28.100
parliament. It's called CEDA. And what it does is it codifies the liberals in Canada, their gender
00:12:34.880
nonsense and the Paris agreements, climate change targets into our trade agreements with the European
00:12:42.780
Union, meaning that all parties have agreed to this non-binding, however, they'll do it anyways, agreement
00:12:49.180
where they have to put their specific industries and sectors through this lens, this climate change lens,
00:12:57.320
before those exports can head into world markets. And part of that are the nitrogen targets that are
00:13:06.640
potentially being imposed on Dutch farmers that could cause them to quit farming certain parts of
00:13:14.560
their land and even cull up to 30. And I've even seen the number as high as 40% of their livestock.
00:13:20.920
Now, we've got a team of journalists in Holland right now. We've got Louis Brackpool, who is our UK
00:13:26.740
reporter, and Lincoln Jay. Lincoln is an expert on blue collar uprisings and convoys. You know his work
00:13:33.700
from the Convoy for Freedom to Ottawa. And Louis, you know him as the World Economic Forum expert
00:13:38.940
around here. And we had to call in somebody else because I think we needed an American perspective
00:13:43.420
on this. And so we called in Katie Davis-Kort. She works with the Post Millennial, and she joins me
00:13:49.560
now from a field somewhere in Holland. Hey, Katie, how's it going? Good. Thanks for having me on, Sheila. I'm
00:13:57.120
excited to be here. Yeah, you know what? You might be a new face to some of our viewers. So why don't
00:14:02.780
you tell us a little bit about yourself and sort of the topics you focus on in your journalism?
00:14:09.340
Right. So I am from the United States. I live in the state of Washington, specifically the city of
00:14:14.580
Seattle. And I started independent reporting in 2018 when I realized that my city only had one
00:14:22.840
perspective. And our news, our local news was not telling the truth. And it was only telling the
00:14:28.560
Democratic side. They refused to cover stories. So I started going out on the field and I started doing
00:14:33.080
my own independent work. I grew a platform. And then in 2020, the George Floyd riots hit. I started
00:14:40.260
reporting from the field on Black Lives Matter. Antifa is when you guys might remember Antifa
00:14:48.440
sieged a six block radius in Seattle and created something called a Capitol Hill autonomous zone.
00:14:55.700
And so I went in undercover and I reported on that for the month that I was there. And I really grew my
00:15:01.720
platform for there. And then I remained independent. And then after January 6th, they were purging
00:15:08.640
everybody from their platforms, all conservative news reporters. So then I was very lucky that the
00:15:14.200
Post Millennial, it is another conservative news site, picked me up as a reporter. And I've been with
00:15:18.480
them ever since. And I predominantly focus on conservative politics and Antifa and crime.
00:15:25.220
from where I live. You know, I think that's really interesting that you are from Seattle,
00:15:30.700
because as a Canadian, when I think of all the terrible climate change ideas and people who
00:15:34.900
don't understand where their food and their energy comes from, there are two places that I think of
00:15:39.180
San Francisco, because it seems to be an incubator of all these large environmental charities with
00:15:45.080
their tentacles reaching into Canada and Seattle, where a bunch of granola people on bikes have no
00:15:52.060
clue how their iPhones get charged. So I think, right, you, you might be the perfect person for
00:16:00.420
Yeah, absolutely. So that's really funny that you mentioned that because my governor,
00:16:04.800
his name is Jay Inslee, and he is the lead climate change guy in the United States. And he is actually
00:16:11.580
trying, everything going on right now is by design. He is actively trying to get rid of our dams.
00:16:18.060
And our Grand Coulee Dam actually produces the most electric, it produces all the electricity
00:16:24.220
for the entire West Coast. And he's trying to get rid of our dams to disrupt our electrical grid.
00:16:30.520
And he's running for office. And he just sent a new donation, like campaign sheet to his supporters
00:16:38.820
that said, we are in for a summer of death, destruction and darkness because of the electrical
00:16:44.920
grids will be disrupted. But it's by the by design, he wants to get everybody onto solar energy,
00:16:50.580
he wants to disrupt everything. And yeah, the Washington State and like you said, San Francisco
00:16:57.860
really at ground zero in the United States. But it's funny that you say, say that because
00:17:02.580
speaking with these Dutch farmers, they have been asking me also what it's like in the in
00:17:08.420
the US because this is a global issue. This is on an international scale. And I said, something
00:17:14.200
that is different from the United States is we do have a federal government, but our states
00:17:19.020
are really, but our states are run individually by our elected government for the states. So you
00:17:25.900
get Republicans, they are not for climate change. You live in a democratic state, they're for climate
00:17:30.680
change. So I don't know if we will see exactly what we are experiencing here in Holland right now with
00:17:37.680
the national citizen uprising, rising against climate change, because we do have production
00:17:43.720
protections by states. But it's coming and it's coming to every everywhere, it seems like.
00:17:49.000
Yeah, it's you're you're very lucky in the United States where you do have the Constitution that
00:17:54.900
restrains your federal government from doing these sorts of things. But for Canadians, we can really
00:17:59.720
relate to what the Dutch are going through, because I live in an allegedly conservative province. And yet
00:18:05.900
we have our federal government imposing climate change targets on us through carbon taxes that keep
00:18:11.400
rising and emissions targets. And so as Canadians, we see what's happening in Holland. And we say,
00:18:18.200
you know, how long till it's here, our prime minister is not one to be out virtue signaled
00:18:23.400
by any other leader in the world, especially someone like Mark Ruta, he'll say, Oh, yeah,
00:18:29.340
me too. And then some. And so it's very worrying for Canadian farmers, like myself in particular.
00:18:35.740
Now, I wanted to ask you, you've been talking to a lot of the farmers, what is the one thing,
00:18:41.640
the one big takeaway that you are getting from these farmers? What's the one thing they want the
00:18:47.480
world to know? They want the world to know what's going on. They were so thankful that we are here to
00:18:54.220
share their story. You know, these farmers, they are losing their livelihoods, they are losing
00:18:59.700
their farms that they have had for generations up to hundreds of years. But most importantly,
00:19:05.860
they wanted to spread caution, they wanted the world to know what's happening in the Netherlands,
00:19:11.800
because it's just a matter of time before it happens to everywhere in the world. So through
00:19:18.540
the World Economic Forum, that's really where everything's coming from. Now, you've been working
00:19:24.320
with our team there. And our team has noticed that there are Canadian flags turning up in these
00:19:31.040
protests. And I think it's great because, you know, when you see the freedom protests in Cuba or
00:19:35.560
Venezuela or Hong Kong a couple of years ago, you would see the American flags as the symbol of
00:19:41.180
that sort of uprising and liberty around the world. But we're seeing the Canadian ones turn up in
00:19:47.220
Holland. And I think that's great. Yeah, absolutely. And you know, that just goes to show how well you
00:19:53.180
guys did with that trucker convoy. I think that was a beacon of hope around the world for to give
00:19:59.900
the green light for other people to start standing up to tyranny standing up to areas that are
00:20:06.700
potentially going to be under dictatorships. And I've seen Canadian flags I in your right, I have not
00:20:12.900
seen American flags. And what the Dutch are doing is they are flipping the Dutch flag upside down, and
00:20:19.520
they are tying a red bandana to the top of it, which symbolizes solidarity with the farmers. So
00:20:27.200
you don't just see that in one area, you see that all across the Netherlands, I have yet to go to a
00:20:33.360
place that hasn't had an upside down flag, a bandana. And there's polls that came out that said
00:20:40.320
roughly 85% support the farmers uprising against the government. And we in our team, we went into
00:20:48.240
Amsterdam to try to find a different perspective, because after speaking with the farmers that they
00:20:52.800
said that they think that the city people are out of touch. And yes, usually, bad policy does come
00:20:58.560
from cities. But after speaking to people inside the city, they were for the farmers. So that 85%
00:21:07.280
is seems to be accurate so far. And it just goes to show that the Dutch government is out of touch with
00:21:14.160
the people. And there's a different agenda going on. Yeah, you guys found I think one crazy lady
00:21:19.920
who had zero empathy for her fellow citizens who said, you know, so if they've got to lose their land,
00:21:26.400
so what? Okay, but when her you know, her avocado is a gazillion dollars in the grocery store,
00:21:31.840
she's going to get mugged by reality. And I think it's also interesting that I'm sure Americans think of
00:21:37.920
Canada as this progressive place. And yet the people are not necessarily as progressive as our
00:21:43.520
government. And I've always thought that way about the Dutch, I always thought they were really
00:21:47.760
progressive and cosmopolitan. And their prime minister was like Trudeau 2.0. And but the people
00:21:56.560
are very different than their government. I think this is a good reminder to us that, you know,
00:22:00.080
while the government does things, the people often think a completely different way.
00:22:04.160
Yeah, absolutely. I noticed that too. These Dutch, the Dutch actually love freedom. They were talking
00:22:13.680
to me and that they, and they were so upset that I explained to them that the United States is really
00:22:18.880
not in a good place right now. We are really the symbol of freedom across the world. And we're losing
00:22:24.960
that. So to see the Dutch fight back against the government, when the United States won't,
00:22:30.240
it was very eye opening to me. And it made it made me realize that the people in the United States
00:22:36.640
are really out of touch with the rest of the world. And we actually do have that rap
00:22:46.560
Yeah, it does. Now, I wanted to ask you a couple more questions, and one of them just escaped my mind.
00:22:53.360
Um, when are you headed back? Tomorrow. You've been on a whirlwind of a trip, like you guys have
00:23:02.240
been, I know, because I call you guys and wake you up very early in the morning, early in the
00:23:07.200
morning for me to just tell us what your day looks like when you're out there, like what? So people
00:23:12.560
can really understand just how hard you're working to tell the other side of the story.
00:23:16.320
Right. So I think I'm on two hours of sleep right now. I think the night before I got three. So we
00:23:22.640
are working constantly. And these protests, they are not in one central location, they're scattered
00:23:29.040
throughout the entire country. So we wake up about 630. We're in the car, we drive to our destination,
00:23:38.320
we are communicating with I'm calling them a handler, but it's a another Dutch journalist who's amazing,
00:23:45.040
who pals around with us and translate is our translator, because a lot of these people don't
00:23:50.960
speak English. So that makes it hard in itself to get interviews with farmers that are actually able
00:23:56.880
to speak to us. So we wake up, we go to a location, we figure out what's going on. If there is going to
00:24:03.920
be a convoy, if there's going to be a demonstration somewhere, if there's going to be a blockade, or if
00:24:10.080
we're going to the Hague for a protest, we do multiple demonstrations a day, because it's not
00:24:16.960
very organized right now. Every group has their own leader. But from what we have heard is that
00:24:24.320
they will be convening together at some point. It's just not set in stone. So it's still kind of
00:24:29.760
a waiting game. But I'll tell you this, the farmers, they are not letting up anytime soon. Everyone I've
00:24:34.400
spoke to has said that they're in this fight until they win. And they have said they have called for
00:24:40.720
war. They have said that I've asked them what kind of other demonstrations that they have done before
00:24:46.080
we made it to the ground. And one guy said, we even do guerrilla warfare in the darkness is what
00:24:52.800
he said, whatever that means. So the they're in it, in it to the end, because these are their livelihoods.
00:25:00.160
And when you mess with farmers, you mess with the entire country. Yeah, you leave a man with nothing
00:25:05.920
left to lose. And don't be surprised when he acts like he has nothing left to lose. Now, I've also
00:25:12.160
noticed this is the one thing I wanted to ask you about. Maybe it's different there. But on the outside,
00:25:17.040
looking in the usual libels against normal people who protest their moral and intellectual superiors in
00:25:25.440
the government, that's not being levied, those things, they aren't being levied at the Dutch.
00:25:30.800
For example, it's pretty tough to call the Dutch neo Nazis, considering what the Nazis actually did
00:25:37.120
to the Dutch, you know, those things that they they call protesters to discredit them. You saw this with
00:25:42.720
the truckers convoy, they were white supremacist radicals, according to Justin Trudeau. But some of
00:25:47.360
those criticisms don't really stick to the Dutch, given their history. What is it like that on the ground?
00:25:54.000
Because I'm not seeing those things that are normally tossed at, you know, like your January 6th
00:25:58.160
protester, your trucker convoy. You're right. I'm not I'm not seeing those things being levied at the
00:26:02.560
Dutch. I'm not seeing that anywhere. And that just goes to show that the farmers have the support from
00:26:08.880
the everyday citizens of the Netherlands. Now, Katie, I should let you go. As I said, off the top of the
00:26:16.560
show, you're standing in a field along the side of the road in Holland. And as you said, you're operating on
00:26:22.080
no sleep. I just want to thank you on behalf of the Rebel News team and our viewers for the
00:26:27.520
incredible work that you've done in Holland to tell the other side of the story. I think the world
00:26:32.880
was really relying on the team there to bring them the news because you just can't trust the mainstream
00:26:39.120
media. Absolutely. And the Dutch have said that, too. So mainstream media here is not on their side.
00:26:45.280
So that's why independent journalism is the most important thing.
00:26:49.600
The Dutch farmer seal of approval. Now, folks at home, if you'd like to see
00:26:53.760
more of Katie's work and the rest of the team, Lewis and Lincoln, you can go to farmerrebellion.com.
00:26:58.800
And if you feel inclined to pitch in to cover the cost of their independent journalism,
00:27:03.680
their boots on the ground journalism in Holland, you can do that at that same website,
00:27:07.920
farmerrebellion.com. Thanks so much, Katie. Get some rest.
00:27:11.520
Yes. Yes. Thank you. Talk to you later. Thanks. Stay with us. Your letters to,
00:27:17.440
well, I guess Ezra, but I'll be reading them up next after the break.
00:27:32.640
Well, this is the portion of the show where Ezra reads your viewer feedback. He used to joke and say
00:27:37.040
that it was the hate mail section of the show. But really, we don't get a lot of that. And
00:27:41.280
unlike the mainstream media, we do welcome your feedback. You know, the mainstream media,
00:27:44.880
they're all happy to take your money in the form of a bailout, but boy, they don't want to
00:27:49.200
hear your opinion of them or the bailout for that matter. But we welcome your feedback and well,
00:27:56.000
also your money too. So if you want to send both to us, that's great. Our first letter comes from
00:28:01.760
Jan H.B. Hugo, who says, Canada should give the turbines back. Why punish Germany? Does not look like
00:28:08.000
Ukraine gives a reason if Germany suffers. Just think out loud. Now, this is in relation to the
00:28:14.080
Canadian government blocking and then returning some natural gas turbines for the production of
00:28:21.280
electricity to Germany. And those were seized as part of the sanctions on Russian energy. Now,
00:28:32.640
this is all very complicated because it is true. German citizens will suffer without these turbines.
00:28:39.440
But at the same time, there's a broader lesson here. And I don't think the powers that be are
00:28:45.440
learning it. And that is that North America must develop a robust natural gas sector through the
00:28:56.880
embrace of fracking. They must liquefy that natural gas and send it to Germany. Because whatever you
00:29:03.520
feel about Russia or the invasion of Ukraine, it was all made possible by the Russian war machine,
00:29:11.520
which is funded through its stranglehold on natural gas in Europe. All of Europe relies on
00:29:20.240
Russia for natural gas and Germany in particular. Okay, let's keep going. We've got one from Spots.
00:29:28.400
It's a fun name. Why is there a shortage of medical health professionals across Canada? I'm retired,
00:29:35.600
but if I were still working, I would consider a career move. Public service should not require one
00:29:42.320
to forfeit personal rights. You know, so many people in medicine were either fired because of
00:29:51.280
their vaccination status. And many of them had already gotten COVID at the beginning of the pandemic
00:29:58.320
and recovered and thus were naturally immune with a better, more robust immunity than anything any
00:30:05.280
vaccine could give you. But they were thrown out of their jobs because they objected to providing
00:30:11.680
their vaccination status affirmatively or otherwise to their employers. And not only do I think this is
00:30:19.600
a problem causing a shortage of qualified medical health professionals in Canada, people who were either
00:30:25.200
fired or just decided that I don't want to work in a system that would do this to me, but I think it's
00:30:34.160
going to cause a problem across all of our public institutions in policing, in government,
00:30:42.080
in the military, in medicine, in academia, even in the bureaucracy. And I'm so often critical of
00:30:49.440
bureaucrats as you know from my monologue, but all the people that would normally be shuffled into a
00:30:57.680
position of management because when their ethics are tested, they did the hard thing because it was right
00:31:07.680
and not the easy thing. Those people, instead of being in positions of management, they're being
00:31:12.720
shown the door. And so what does that mean for the future of our public institutions when the people
00:31:19.360
who were willing to go along to get along are the people in charge? I'm not hopeful. Well, everybody,
00:31:26.960
that's the show for tonight. Thank you so much as always for tuning in. Thanks to everybody in the
00:31:31.680
studio in Toronto who took all these video files and turned them into an actual show. We'll see
00:31:38.080
everybody, well, I guess, I think my friend David Menzies is hosting the show tomorrow. Thanks for
00:31:43.360
bearing with me. And as the big boss man always says, keep fighting for freedom.
00:31:48.960
This is Juan Mendoza reporting for Rebel News. So with the recent iCloud leak that looks at Hunter
00:31:53.840
Biden and all the actions he's been doing there with his family. So on Sunday, a programmer who
00:31:58.960
worked with Max, he posted a live stream video outlining his intention of dropping Biden's,
00:32:04.560
Hunter Biden's entire hard drive online, along with clues for users to break into the iPhone and
00:32:10.160
iPad backups. He put it on 4chan, which is some sort of website that's basically not very
00:32:15.600
moderated. And it's kind of the website of last resort for people who want to get information
00:32:20.560
out there but can't because everything is so completely censored at this point.
00:32:24.400
So even on 4chan, the moderators quickly took these links down. But internet users are already
00:32:28.800
seeding the contents of the backups on torrent sites. Bottom line, this is going to live online
00:32:34.560
forever. It's not going away. We're here in Miami to talk with the people to see what their thoughts
00:32:39.920
are about the Biden family. So there's like an iCloud leak that came out recently through 4chan. And
00:32:45.280
like another laptop leak that came out a few years ago, seeing how Hunter Biden was doing lots of
00:32:51.840
like illegal activity, like looking at, he was like measuring crack cocaine. And like he was engaging
00:32:58.400
in sex with prostitutes. And like he has his dad put on his phone as pedo Peter. So what are your
00:33:05.600
thoughts about the Biden family? Um, well, that doesn't seem good. Like that's not, um, yeah,
00:33:18.000
that's not okay. That is something that shouldn't be happening. People need their like, um, what's it
00:33:25.360
called? Like their stuff hidden, like they need their privacy. And that's not okay to be leaking that
00:33:32.000
information. I think they suck. I'm sorry. I Biden doesn't know what he's talking about. And
00:33:39.600
his son is a crook. I've heard about controversy with Hunter Biden, but not much about that. I don't
00:33:45.680
know. I can't give out any details. Okay. I've never heard that much about him at all. So no, no
00:33:51.840
details about it. Wow. I think they're pretty weird. I mean, I kind of had a little bit of more respect for
00:33:58.480
Biden after what he did with Roe v. Wade, but like now it's just after hearing that it's
00:34:05.680
weird, man. Um, I honestly don't get into politics a lot. I do not care. I mean,
00:34:11.520
you can't really change it even if you want to. So I just try to stay out of it.
00:34:16.960
Wow. I did not know that. That's crazy. I mean, I'm not really much into politics,
00:34:22.240
but that's, that's insane. That's really, that's out of pocket. I don't know what to say to that,
00:34:27.920
honestly. I saw, I looked through the leaks cause it's public now. There's some very concerning
00:34:32.480
things like child pornography on it, on Hunter Biden's leaks, which I mean, it should be looked
00:34:38.160
into, but thoroughly, I believe that the most of the reasons people are looking into the families
00:34:42.960
cause you know, president and it's more political. But in this case, I feel people should be looking into
00:34:47.920
it cause there's like very concerning things along with what they found.
00:34:52.320
The Biden family, I feel like, um, they're lacking a lot of, um, connectivity like between
00:34:59.040
themselves and they're lacking a lot of respect and education as a whole. Um, I just, I don't really,
00:35:05.760
um, believe in like their family. I feel like it's just a fake picture that they put out there.
00:35:11.360
Personally, I'm not a huge fan of Biden. However, he did just release like a press talk about
00:35:17.360
not supporting the whole turnover of road versus wave that kind of made me support him a little
00:35:22.800
bit, but personally, like Biden's not my favorite person. So I'm not a big fan.
00:35:28.320
You think he's like, like personally, like his family's more like, uh, like not really
00:35:32.560
good people, but you support more like his politics rather than like his,
00:35:36.000
I don't really support his politics a lot, but I think he has some good ideas if he can actually act
00:35:41.040
on them, but that hasn't really been shown. Personally wise, like how his family is,
00:35:45.920
I don't know much about him, but I do not really like him in office. Yeah, but that's my opinion.
00:35:51.840
Um, I think that this whole thing is shady and someone needs to like, you know, get in,
00:35:57.600
get into what they're going, um, and like figure out what's happening. I mean, that's pretty much it.
00:36:03.920
I honestly don't get into politics because I don't prefer any other side than the other. I think that Biden is
00:36:12.000
the same thing as Trump, the same thing as any other person. I think that if it's nothing fixed, if it's no
00:36:18.880
evidence that it can be firmly confirmed, I'm not going to use that to say that Biden is this and this.
00:36:25.360
is this. The thing is also that that was found on 4chan. 4chan is recognized for a place where extremists
00:36:32.640
put their things and then they talk about things that are not comparable or true. But at the same time,
00:36:39.520
I'm not saying that it's not possible. I mean, his son of his had a problem with drugs,
00:37:01.760
I don't necessarily have a huge thought on them. Um, I know there's a lot of hate towards them,
00:37:09.120
just from the opposing point of view. But personally, I, I know he's our president and that's basically it.
00:37:17.520
Yeah, I don't follow them, but I have heard some things, but I'll never know if they're true.
00:37:24.640
I think the most I know is, um, that like in the, he was, uh, came back from the war and he was like,
00:37:30.400
not in a, unhonorable or not honorable, whatever, something like that. I don't remember,
00:37:35.840
I mean, I didn't know that this was going to happen, but I don't think that's right.
00:37:42.400
But I've never heard of it until now. I didn't know.
00:37:45.760
I don't feel like his family defines him as a person and his decisions that like what he,
00:37:52.880
you know, like the way he controls this country, I don't think it has to do with his son or whatever.
00:37:56.720
Like each person is, each is their own, you know what I mean? But I also like,
00:38:00.960
I don't agree 100% with Biden. I think there's a lot of things that are wrong with the way he's
00:38:05.120
leading this country. You know, I feel like he's a puppet. I feel like he's not making the
00:38:09.440
decisions on his own. Like, you know, someone is, he's not, he's not like the best leader.
00:38:15.920
You know, I don't see him like a very, you know, like a good leader. So even though I'm like,
00:38:22.160
you know, I wouldn't, I'm democratic, you know, I want someone, I'm more, I'm like a leftist,
00:38:27.200
but I don't really like how Biden has been running everything. So, but I, I don't care whatsoever.
00:38:33.200
Like all this gossip about his family and whatever, I don't think that defines who he is or that has to
00:38:38.480
do with anything. Like it's, to me, I feel like it's unnecessary. No, not really. I can't say
00:38:43.760
I've really kept up too much with that. I'm not too aware of the situation, so I can't really speak
00:38:48.160
on it that much, but that sounds pretty crazy. That's pretty crazy. Yeah. I didn't know anything
00:38:52.480
about that. Yeah, same reaction. It's just like insane. Yeah, we didn't know about that. He sounds
00:38:59.280
like my type of guy. Do you feel like the Biden administration, they're like representing the
00:39:03.200
people in the country, uh, pretty well, or? Um, can I put no comment? Um, no thoughts. No opinions,
00:39:12.800
no, nothing. Some maybe, definitely not all. Me personally, there's good and bad. I wouldn't
00:39:20.000
say I'm a supporter, but there's a few things they've done that I liked. Some people didn't
00:39:25.600
like Biden, even if they were Democrats and others had no clue.
