Hello, my rebels. Have you ever heard of someone that Justin Trudeau will not accept to Canada
00:00:05.420
as an immigrant or a refugee? We know he takes terrorists, including returning ISIS rapists.
00:00:11.720
We know he takes bogus refugees from the United States, including those ordered deported.
00:00:16.720
But I think we finally found someone that Trudeau just can't stomach. Oh, he is in a pickle on this
00:00:25.240
one. I'll tell you in today's podcast. Before I do, let me invite you to become a Rebel News Plus

00:00:55.240
Tonight, we finally found a group of refugees that Justin Trudeau refuses to take.
00:01:04.620
It's May 5th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:08.980
Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:12.680
There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:16.740
The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it is because it's my
00:01:27.740
Justin Trudeau's open borders globalist ideology is what he believes in more than anything,
00:01:33.180
other than his passion for marijuana. And even that doesn't really count. His marijuana obsession
00:01:38.760
isn't so much ideological as it's just his hobby.
00:01:42.620
The current approach on drugs is not working. I'm in favor of legalizing it.
00:01:47.800
Five or six times in my life that I've taken a puff of protecting our children from marijuana.
00:01:54.540
So yes, five or six times in my life that the continued prohibition of marijuana,
00:01:58.960
that's a lot of smoking. I've never done it except with people I know and trust.
00:02:03.280
Same thing with Trudeau and being a male feminist. It's not really so much a philosophy, it's more a
00:02:09.680
cynical gimmick to preempt and silence questions about his sexual harassment of women like Rose Knight.
00:02:17.100
Like I said, I do not feel that I acted inappropriately in any way. But I respect
00:02:25.160
the fact that someone else might have experienced that differently.
00:02:29.180
Joe Biden should really try the Trudeau approach. No, no, no, no. I'm not a serial groper. I'm just a
00:02:35.840
male feminist who feels the need to dominate every powerful woman in my orbit by invading their
00:02:41.900
personal space, having chest-to-chest hugs to show these women I'm their master. Trudeau is such a
00:02:48.000
creep, but the media party covers for him just like they did for Bill Clinton. But yeah, globalism is the
00:02:53.620
one thing Trudeau actually believes in. He's not particularly bright compared to his father,
00:02:58.960
Pierre Trudeau. But Justin Trudeau absorbed enough of his dad's hostility to the West and romantic love
00:03:05.440
for third world dictatorships. That's the closest thing he has to an ideology. Here's Trudeau
00:03:12.280
sitting at the feet of George Soros. You can tell who is the boss in this meeting. I normally show you
00:03:18.680
the cropped photo of just Trudeau and Soros that Trudeau himself tweeted, but Christia Freeland was in
00:03:24.500
the meeting too. She may have actually set the meeting up. She's good friends with Soros. According
00:03:29.560
to the Globe and Mail, before she was elected as an MP, she was approved by Soros to write his
00:03:34.980
authorized biography, translation, a fawning pro-Soros piece of propaganda. Can you imagine that she became
00:03:42.240
Canada's foreign minister and now our prime minister? Is there any doubt why Canada has been such an
00:03:48.540
anti-U.S., anti-NATO globalist mess now? The entire Roxham Road fiasco, taking 50,000 bogus refugees
00:03:56.100
is pure Soros. But in fairness, Trudeau's loathing for Canada and its borders is something
00:04:01.280
he inherited from his own dad, well before he would have met Soros. Remember this speech he gave
00:04:07.060
on the campaign trail in 2015 when he said he would reverse Stephen Harper's policy, a policy that other
00:04:12.760
allies like the UK have, to strip convicted terrorists who have a dual citizenship of their
00:04:18.260
Canadian citizenship? Trudeau said they were just as Canadian as you are.
00:04:22.320
Terrorist attacks against this country. The individual in question, Mr. Trudeau is a Canadian.
00:04:26.720
Trudeau will let everyone, anyone into our country, terrorists, even returning ISIS rapists
00:04:32.820
coming back from the Islamic State. We know that actually someone who has engaged and turned away
00:04:41.920
from that hateful ideology can be an extraordinarily powerful voice. Trudeau will even keep people who
00:04:48.720
just walk across Roxham Road. They have criminal records, even if they're child predators. He'll keep
00:04:57.280
them. Here's a sex offender faking it as a refugee. Good enough for Trudeau, though. Everyone is welcome.
00:05:04.320
Anyone. Indiscriminate. No need to actually be a real refugee. No need to be in Canada's own interests.
00:05:10.080
It's all about open borders. I've never heard of anyone turned away by Trudeau. Have you? Until now.
00:05:19.360
Look at this. Published in the Globe and Mail. I criticize the Globe a lot, but on their China
00:05:23.920
coverage, like their coverage of Jody Wilson-Raybould, I must give credit where it's due. The Globe has had
00:05:27.880
the best coverage of the China crisis of any Canadian newspaper other than the Epoch Times, and that's one
00:05:32.720
of the reasons why Trudeau refuses to take their questions at his daily scrums, too. Isn't that funny?
00:05:37.360
Let me read this story, which just happens to be written by Bob Fyfe and Steve Chase,
00:05:41.620
the two Globe reporters who did the heavy lifting on the Jody Wilson-Raybould stories, by the way.
00:05:46.440
Freeland mum on whether Hong Kong asylum seekers will be granted refuge, as Bigger Way predicted.
00:05:53.580
Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland asked about dozens of asylum claims made by Hong Kong protesters
00:05:58.700
in Canada, praised the rich contribution immigrants from this former British colony have made to this
00:06:03.940
country, but declined to indicate whether Ottawa would grant the applicants refuge.
00:06:09.120
Now, I suppose that's technically fair enough. It would be inappropriate for a political cabinet
00:06:14.700
minister to prejudge the outcome of a refugee application, which is a bureaucratic or a quasi-judicial
00:06:22.820
decision. It would be like a politician weighing in on a court case. Let me read some more.
00:06:26.880
The 46 would-be refugees from Hong Kong applied for asylum claims between January 1st and March 31st,
00:06:35.540
2020. The claims, which are all pending, were received at airports, Canada Border Security Agency
00:06:40.860
bureaus, and Immigration Refugee and Citizenship Canada officers across the country. Many of those
00:06:45.940
claiming asylum in Canada faced charges in Hong Kong in connection with the protests. Well, that's the
00:06:50.960
thing, isn't it? Trudeau loves open borders. He loves them. Everyone's welcome. Terrorists, rapists,
00:06:55.860
registered sex offenders, criminals. But yikes, a democracy activist from Hong Kong? As in the people
00:07:02.480
who love freedom so much they're willing to stand up to the Chinese Communist Party and risk another
00:07:06.700
Tiananmen Square massacre? Yikes, those are the people that Trudeau would consider? He hates those people.
00:07:13.040
I mean, he hates them. They're the same kind of people that the CBC state broadcaster smears, even calls
00:07:18.660
racist, as they did in this weird repeated attack on the Epoch Times, a newspaper run by ethnically
00:07:23.780
Chinese people who criticized the Chinese dictatorship. This is a tough one for Trudeau.
00:07:28.460
Two of his favorite things are in conflict. Does he obey George Soros and the open borders ideology,
00:07:33.820
or does he obey China and send the Hong Kong democracy protesters back to China, and perhaps
00:07:40.120
back to prison or even their deaths? You know, there's a Chinese professor who's taught at the
00:07:45.380
University of Alberta and then the University of British Columbia. Wenrang Jiang is his name.
00:07:49.000
His specialty is Canada-China relations, but he really is a sort of unofficial spokesman for
00:07:53.660
China in Canada. I'm not saying he's disloyal to Canada. I've interviewed him before. I've
00:07:57.660
debated him before. He's very smart, very pragmatic. I'm just saying, if he says Beijing has a certain
00:08:03.120
opinion, you can take it to the bank that they really do. Here's what he told the Globe and
00:08:07.380
Mail. Wenren Jiang, an adjunct professor of the University of British Columbia School of Public Policy
00:08:12.420
and Global Affairs, said Canada should proceed cautiously. If Ottawa officially encourages and
00:08:18.540
offers political asylum to protesters in Hong Kong, even if some of them clearly broke the law by being
00:08:23.640
violent, Beijing is likely to interpret such a move as interfering in Chinese domestic affairs,
00:08:29.120
leading to adding more chill to an already cold bilateral relationship.
00:08:33.240
I'm not sure what adding more chill means. Is China going to, what, take another two Canadian
00:08:40.300
citizens hostage on top of Michael Spavor and Michael Kovrig? Are Chinese nationals going to
00:08:47.520
hoover up more of our medical supplies during the pandemic? I don't know. Will they infect and kill
00:08:52.580
thousands of Canadians with some virus from Wuhan? I'm not sure what China could do to us that they
00:08:57.400
haven't already done to us, but it's clear they'd be really, really mad if we, you know, gave
00:09:03.000
refuge to people fleeing for their lives. Hey, how do you think Trudeau is going to come down on this
00:09:08.220
one? Stand up for Hong Kong civil rights in general and the lives of these 46 people in particular?
00:09:15.000
Or obey China, submit to China, do what China wants them to do? Yeah, it's really not much of a contest.
00:09:20.200
What a shame, though. In Hong Kong, not only do you have people who speak English,
00:09:25.080
hundreds of years of British legal and cultural traditions, the rule of law, property rights,
00:09:29.580
that sort of thing. And a free market economy with an entrepreneurial spirit. I mean, talk about
00:09:34.960
a great immigrant, right? I mean, wow, they'd fit in great. They do so well. But in these 46 people,
00:09:41.260
presumably, that's sort of the problem. You have a deep love for democracy and freedom. Yeah,
00:09:45.500
they're actually the precise kind of people Trudeau wants to replace in Canada with his preferred
00:09:50.020
type of refugee, the Omar Khadars of the world. So that was one story out of Ottawa. And here's another.
00:09:56.100
It was issued from Geneva, Switzerland, actually. That's a funny place to learn about Canadian news.
00:10:01.260
But here it is from Dr. Tedros, who is about as much as a medical doctor as I am. He's actually
00:10:06.520
the first non-medical doctor to run the World Health Organization. Normally, they have doctors
00:10:11.360
running. He has other uses, though, besides medicine. He obeys China, the country that installed
00:10:17.220
him as the leader of the World Health Organization. Here's his tweet.
00:10:20.900
Thank you, Justin Trudeau, prime minister, for the support to the WHO during the United Against
00:10:26.120
Coronavirus pledging event and for the contribution of 551 million euros plus to the global COVID-19
00:10:37.740
response. Together. Oh, my God. 551 million euros. You know what a euro, that's the currency of the
00:10:45.000
European Union. It's worth more than a dollar. I did the currency exchange. That's 838 million
00:10:52.380
Canadian dollars. It's almost a billion dollars to the UN's corrupt China-controlled WHO. Just
00:11:00.040
announced on Twitter. You bet. That's how Trudeau rolls. Just like how Trudeau blurted out that he
00:11:04.820
was giving 50 million dollars to some scheme that a U.S. late-night comedian Trevor Noah came up with.
00:11:10.420
50 million. Just to get a cool retweet from some B-list celebrity. That's how Trudeau does it with
00:11:15.700
your money. We'll multiply that amount by almost 20. Here's how Trudeau crowed about it online.
00:11:21.400
When a storm comes, people tend to want to hunker down with their friends, with their families,
00:11:26.420
and wait till it blows over. But we cannot isolate ourselves. We cannot hope that everyone else does
00:11:32.480
well while we take care of ourselves. We need to take care of ourselves and take care of the rest of the
00:11:38.520
world as well. Take care of ourselves by taking care of the rest of the world.
00:11:43.340
What? The safety of our own people depends on how people in other countries are? Yeah, no, no. Not if
00:11:49.220
we have borders. Then we keep people with the virus out. It's what every country in the world is doing
00:11:55.220
that's being successful, especially Taiwan. When he says we can't isolate ourselves, well, actually,
00:12:01.440
that's what exactly happened. We're all in isolation now. We're all really under some form of house
00:12:07.080
arrest precisely because he and his fools wouldn't close the borders to the virus. We've been forced
00:12:13.360
into isolation. He just kept the flights coming to Canada. And that one line he said that we can't
00:12:20.880
hunker down and take care of ourselves only. We have to take care of the rest of the world first.
00:12:25.180
What? With $838 million. Where's that money coming from? Is that borrowed from China again?
00:12:31.960
We've got 2 million Canadians thrown out of work. Agriculture, the travel and tourism industry,
00:12:37.560
every restaurant, bar, theater, sports facility, most schools, most retail companies. And Trudeau thinks
00:12:43.100
we need to give money to other people in other countries now of all time. Stop being so selfish,
00:12:50.800
he says, really. But he doesn't mean himself. He's been secretly renovating that country cottage that
00:12:57.320
taxpayers provide him, $8.6 million in renovations. How do you spend that much on a lake house? Well,
00:13:04.700
money's no object when it's taxpayers' money and it's Trudeau, who personally benefits. Don't you worry,
00:13:09.820
none of that $8.6 million will be sent overseas. Just your money will be. That fawning style of his,
00:13:16.660
that childishness, that generosity with other people's money. Say, do you ever hear that tone
00:13:21.960
of voice he used there when he's talking to Canadians like unemployed oil and gas workers
00:13:27.540
or farmers or people from Alberta or Saskatchewan or serving military or veterans? No. Just when he's
00:13:35.400
playing to his base, the Canadian media party and foreign globalists. And that's all he cares about.
00:13:41.780
I think he hates his job as prime minister, actually. I know it's hard to believe that at first,
00:13:47.100
but think about it. For nearly two months, he's been hiding out in his house. He's got that vacation
00:13:51.820
beard. He's living apart from his estranged wife who's at the cottage. Trudeau, I don't know,
00:13:57.520
works an hour a day, maybe. He's disconnected from reality. He only shows any emotion and energy
00:14:03.640
when he's giving away your money to foreign countries. That's the connection with the Hong Kong
00:14:08.700
refugees story, too. Trudeau wants that temporary seat on the United Nations Security Council that's
00:14:14.540
coming up for a vote. He needs China's vote to get on that and the votes that China controls. That's why
00:14:21.240
Trudeau won't approve those Hong Kong refugees. That's why Trudeau just gave nearly a billion
00:14:26.000
dollars to the corrupt, lying, China-controlled WHO. And that's his exit plan, I think.
00:14:33.280
Trudeau checked out as our prime minister in October when he lost his majority government in the last
00:14:38.240
election. Even before that, when the blackface revelation stunned him on top of the Jody Wilson
00:14:43.860
Raybould judicial interference matter, Trudeau just stopped having fun because people stopped looking
00:14:49.140
up to him. They stopped believing him. Young people, minorities, women, aboriginal people,
00:14:53.800
they realized he was a fake. He's a weird recluse now, dyeing his own hair in different colors,
00:15:00.860
not cutting his nails. This is so weird. Check out the... Cut your fingernails, you weirdo.
00:15:07.980
What is that? I think he wants out, but he wants up. He wants all the travel and the perks
00:15:14.660
without any of the responsibilities. He doesn't want to do the hard stuff. He wants fawning hordes
00:15:20.000
of people, huge expense accounts, lots of young, pretty interns, but no pesky elections and work.
00:15:26.500
That's why he loves the UN. You heard it here first. Justin Trudeau will do anything, give anything,
00:15:32.560
to get Canada a United Nations Security Council seat, and then that's his exit plan, to maneuver to get
00:15:40.900
himself as the next Secretary General of the UN, as a pro-China, anti-America, pro-Soros open borders
00:15:51.020
mascot for the world. He's said as much. He says he doesn't believe in borders or even in Canada,
00:15:58.040
really. He's even got the t-shirt. If you know that about Trudeau, if you believe that he wants out,
00:16:05.000
that he wants to run the UN, that he wants to get away from countries and borders, then all of a sudden
00:16:09.560
a lot more things about his anti-Canadian decisions start to make sense. Stay with us for more.
00:16:28.040
We were on this wing for about 15, we were here for about 15 or 20 minutes. She was just on this
00:16:37.320
wing. We weren't hurting anyone. We were here by ourselves. The police showed up. Two officers
00:16:43.420
approached us and told us that we were breaking. And they, and they put handcuffs on my mom. I told
00:16:49.720
them that we weren't harming anyone, that we needed to get outside and get some normality and just get
00:16:54.420
some fresh air. We were talking for a little while, just like on human to human level, uh, explaining
00:16:59.120
like where I was coming from and all of this mental health, the lockdown, two months being inside with
00:17:04.840
my daughter with no support. They proceeded to call back up. The sergeant showed up here. Same thing.
00:17:10.580
I tried to discuss it with him. He didn't want to hear it. He grabbed my arm, uh, took my backpack off,
00:17:15.760
proceeded to put me in handcuffs, uh, separated me from my daughter. I was taken up to the police vehicle
00:17:21.980
where a cop did a body search on me and it was very thorough and invasive. From there,
00:17:27.940
they put me into the back of the cop car and I didn't even know where my daughter was at that time.
00:17:34.020
They went through all my things against my will. We were separated for about 20 minutes. He called
00:17:38.860
me an idiot and yelled in my face. They finally came back and, um, released me from the cop car,
00:17:44.980
took my handcuffs off and gave me an $880 ticket.
00:17:47.900
I am so angry watching that. I cannot tell you that as a mom and her five-year-old daughter
00:17:54.240
arrested, handcuffed, searched, separated from her daughter for 20 minutes,
00:18:00.060
arrested in front of her five-year-old daughter. Now, did she commit a crime? Is she a bank robber?
00:18:04.420
Is she a murderer? What did she do? She was on the swings with her daughter at an empty playground.
00:18:11.200
Joining us now via Skype from Edmonton is our friend Sheila Gunner-Reed, chief reporter,
00:18:16.780
to talk to you about the latest case for fightthefines.com. Sheila, I'm so mad when I see that.
00:18:25.340
Well, that young lady is Bridget Carlson. She's a young mom in North Bay, Ontario.
00:18:30.780
And, you know, she tells a really quite harrowing tale. She went out to get some fresh air with her
00:18:38.640
daughter. Her daughter wanted to go on the swings. Bridget thought, what's the harm? Nobody else is
00:18:44.560
there. I'm not endangering anybody. And so she let her daughter go on the swings. Then the police showed
00:18:52.340
up. And it culminated in Bridget being handcuffed, stuffed in a car, verbally abused by the police.
00:19:04.020
They called her names. And her belongings were searched. She was searched. She told me under her
00:19:10.480
clothes, separated from her daughter for 20 minutes. That's, I mean, I'm a mom of kids. My kids would be
00:19:18.100
absolutely in hysterics just beside themselves. If they saw that happen to me, all of this happened
00:19:24.180
in front of her five-year-old. And eventually the police took the cuffs off her, took her out of
00:19:30.400
the cop car and gave her an $880 fine. And Bridget's not a rich lady. I mean, who is during the coronavirus
00:19:37.840
lockdown? I mean, this is a fine that would absolutely devastate her family. The first time I
00:19:45.400
talked to Bridget, she broke down in tears, talking about the effect that this has had on her and her
00:19:54.960
child. She said her daughter said to her, am I going to get, am I going to need a new mommy if the police
00:20:01.580
come back to get you? Bridget said she, you know, woke up just sweating. She said it's been very traumatic
00:20:09.620
for her. And her only crime was pushing her daughter on the swings. Of course, that's not a
00:20:15.160
crime. It's at most a public health ticket. And I know that you spoke to the Top Gun lawyer we've
00:20:23.020
retained to help all of these cases of fight the fines. Sam Goldstein, who's a senior criminal lawyer
00:20:29.140
in Toronto, is also a bencher of the Law Society. I mentioned that because that's one of the senior
00:20:33.540
lawyers in Ontario that run the whole profession. So he's no slouch. And what was interesting,
00:20:40.420
and I encourage our viewers to watch the whole video on fightthefines.com, is Sam made the good
00:20:45.580
point. You can be searched incidental to an arrest, but your stuff being searched, your body being
00:20:54.680
searched, you're thrown into the back of a car for a ticket? Yeah. For a ticket? And Sam
00:21:02.060
was musing out loud, and I don't know the answer to his legal research on this. Like, if you get a
00:21:07.420
parking ticket, they can't strip search you, or not strip search, they can't search you under your
00:21:13.560
clothes, separate you from your daughter. It's a ticket. It's not a crime. It's not a crime. Now,
00:21:19.900
I'm not an expert in criminal law, so we rely on Sam Goldstein, but I feel so good that, and we sent
00:21:26.980
our cameraman all the way up to North Bay there to meet this young, no one else would help her,
00:21:32.240
no one else would help her. Who would help her? Where are the civil liberties associations who
00:21:36.920
would normally rage against a young woman, a single mom, no less, being thrown in the back of a cop
00:21:42.400
car with cuffs? No one is there. I feel so good about this, Sheila, that we're helping this young
00:21:48.160
mom, and we're helping, I think we have about 11 or 12 or 13 cases like this. We're processing them,
00:21:54.440
so we've only publicized about half of them so far. I feel great about helping this mom. I feel like it's
00:22:00.420
really doing a public duty that no one else will do. I'm so glad you're taking it in particular
00:22:06.480
because you can relate mom to mom. She had nowhere else to turn. No one is there to help her. She's
00:22:14.840
a single mom. She's really on her own. As you hear in her interview there, she said she's been
00:22:20.140
basically locked in the house for two months with her daughter. This was, you know, their chance to get
00:22:24.960
out and have a little fresh air. And the first time out getting a little fresh air, she ends up
00:22:30.260
in handcuffs. I mean, this is really, I think, going to change people who are on the fence about
00:22:37.980
these fines. I think hearing what happened to Bridget could really signal a bit of a sea change
00:22:48.040
in people's attitudes about police fining people because this is just so absolutely outrageous.
00:22:55.300
And I did have a couple of conversations with Sam. I talked to him on the phone before I
00:22:59.740
jumped on Skype with him. And he did explain to me that, yeah, this is a ticketable offense. This
00:23:05.720
isn't something that they really can be arresting you for, sticking you in cuffs. And why stick her in
00:23:13.040
cuffs? I mean, if she was acting out, if she's acting belligerent, if there's a crowd of people
00:23:18.280
around and she's acting crazy, but she wasn't. It was just her and her daughter. Who was she
00:23:24.800
endangering? Yeah. You know, we've talked about this on another show, is that under our constitution,
00:23:31.440
our charge, even our basic freedoms can be infringed in certain cases. The seminal court case is called
00:23:39.660
Oaks. And so we call it the Oaks test. And I'm just going to, without getting too heavy duty into
00:23:46.100
the law, is the infringement the least possible infringement on our freedom? Is it rationally
00:23:54.880
connected to solving some public harm? And is it proportionate to the harm that's being averted? Those
00:24:02.800
are several elements of the Oaks test. So let's go through that. Is handcuffing a mom, separating
00:24:10.300
her from her daughter, throwing in the back of the cop car, searching out her clothes, is that the
00:24:14.780
least possible infringement that could have been done here? No, of course not. Is it rationally
00:24:20.060
connected? No, you're not going to catch the virus by being alone with your daughter on inanimate
00:24:26.220
equipment where there's no one around for a mile. And finally, is it proportionate to the harm?
00:24:32.660
Well, I should tell you, not a single teenager. I mean, this is not a five-year-old teenager. She's
00:24:39.000
five. Thank God the virus doesn't touch kids. Like it's just, there's nothing medically sound about
00:24:46.820
this. There's nothing sound in terms of police work about this. There was nothing sound in terms
00:24:51.700
of crime control, crowd control. This was just pure government bullying. And I tell you, Sheila,
00:24:58.780
I grew up, my family, my house, when I was a kid, we had so much respect for police. We were such a
00:25:05.000
pro-police household. It was drummed into us. The police are the good guys. Always, if you're in
00:25:09.560
danger, go to a cop. Always look to the cops, cops, cops. You would think we were a cop family. But
00:25:15.620
watching the police abuse these past weeks in these cases, it is enough to turn a public against the
00:25:23.200
police. And that is a grave danger here. Yeah, I agree with that. I mean, I'm pro-police. I say it
00:25:32.800
all the time. I love cops, hate their bosses. I've got police in my own family. But these municipal
00:25:40.340
regulations and the authoritarian cops enforcing them are not doing their fellow members any favors
00:25:48.920
because it will change the public's attitude about police. And I think that then becomes
00:25:55.240
very dangerous. Every time you mention that Bridget was searched under her clothes in front of her
00:26:02.500
child, my face gets hot with anger. I can't think of much worse of a violation of a mom in front of
00:26:09.800
her daughter. And for these cops to do that because she violated some dumb rule and was in an empty park,
00:26:18.000
it's outrageous. And I'm, I'm glad that we're helping Bridget. I can't think of someone more
00:26:24.380
deserving of the help. And it really, we say we're helping, but it's our people at home who are
00:26:30.080
pitching in to help fund the legal battle for her through fightthefines.com. Yeah, that's right. I
00:26:36.220
mean, I've thought about and I've used occasional pro bono lawyers in my life. And my view is pro bono
00:26:42.220
lawyers, that means working for free as sort of a, instead of donating cash to charity, they donate their
00:26:46.720
time. You know, you got to like a lawyer who's willing to do that. But usually such a lawyer is
00:26:51.540
not an expert in the particular field and they still have to earn a living. So they do their pro
00:26:56.700
bono work last. We are not hiring Sam Goldstein pro bono. We're hiring him as we're paying him.
00:27:05.240
And he's being reasonable with his fees, as far as I can tell. But the reason we're doing that is we
00:27:11.120
want the best guy. And we want him to give his attention to this because we want to win. And I
00:27:17.960
think we're going to win for Bridget Carlson and all the other cases we've taken. And what's so
00:27:25.620
interesting, we had a case of a teenage skateboarder. There was no signage on the park.
00:27:31.300
There was a case of a guy literally sitting on a bench in a park in Toronto. He went to leave the
00:27:37.560
park. He was off the park. He was, all these guys are people who you wouldn't normally say,
00:27:42.580
well, that's a rebel supporter. Some of our guys are like that's that senior who got ticketed for
00:27:47.500
taking his dog out for a pee. But these other, I would call them working class. I would say they're
00:27:52.480
probably not that political. If they were, they'd probably go with the conventional wisdom, maybe
00:27:56.400
even be a little bit liberal. These are the working class. And I would even say in some cases,
00:28:02.020
working poor. Where are the liberals? Where are the civil liberties lawyers on the left?
00:28:08.280
They are not there. And this isn't even a left wing, right wing thing. I'm just so proud we're
00:28:12.020
doing this. Sheila, I'm glad it was you on our team who reached out to this mum and your right to thank
00:28:18.740
our viewers who are the donors paying. I think we've got 11 or 12 cases. Maybe it was 13, but one of
00:28:24.920
them, she settled on her own. Another guy paid his ticket on his own before we could fight. So I think
00:28:30.340
we've got about a dozen cases. If folks want to learn more about those other cases or help
00:28:34.860
pay the legal bills, because we're getting lawyers in other cities now, too. We have a lawyer in
00:28:40.000
Calgary, a lawyer in Edmonton, a lawyer in Montreal, because he's got a lot of cases. If folks want to
00:28:45.440
help, go to fightthefines.com, because we are going to pay these lawyers for folks like this. Sheila,
00:28:52.560
give me your thoughts on this. And then I want to tell you a positive turn of events in New York City
00:28:58.140
with their police force. But give me your last thoughts on our project, our Fight the Fines
00:29:03.100
project. You know, I'm glad you pointed out that these people are just severely normal people. Some
00:29:09.460
of them are clearly not rebel supporters. And I'm proud to say that we are helping everybody that we
00:29:16.240
can help. We do a little bit of legwork before we take on a case. We don't have a values test
00:29:22.840
before we help people whose rights have been violated. And I think that's important, because
00:29:28.920
when your rights have been violated by these authoritarian municipalities, someone has to
00:29:35.020
help you. And I guess that someone is us. That's a great point. That's a great point. Let me tell you,
00:29:40.580
let me end on some good news, because it makes me sad what police are doing. But one of the most
00:29:46.680
well-respected and impressive police forces in the world, I think people would generally
00:29:51.800
acknowledge, is the New York Police Department. It's one of the largest. It's got one of the
00:29:56.760
toughest jobs. It has tough neighborhoods, different ethnicities and languages. And of course, terrorism
00:30:05.740
is one of their major projects ever since 9-11 before that. I think the New York Police Department
00:30:12.000
is one of the most respected in the world. And I am so pleased. And you can see here statements made by
00:30:18.360
their police union that they simply will not engage in social distancing policing anymore. It's against
00:30:29.320
the interests of the community. It's against the interests of goodwill. And they're simply not
00:30:34.780
willing to be the bad guys doing what all too many Canadian police are. I'm impressed that
00:30:41.980
New York City cops have more common sense than their Canadian brethren who are doing this
00:30:48.340
nuttiness. And hopefully, that common sense will spread up here. What do you think?
00:30:54.140
I think it's great that the New York City police force is focusing on policing real crimes and not
00:31:01.340
these made-up social distancing crimes. They're in one of the largest cities in the world, one of the
00:31:07.360
busiest cities in the world. They have a big enough job as it is. And they seem to have a mayor that
00:31:13.840
doesn't respect the work they do. I'm glad to see that they're taking their oath to uphold the
00:31:20.080
Constitution of the United States seriously. Yeah. Sheila, I'm so proud of this case. And I'm so grateful
00:31:27.460
that it was you who reached out and you had just the right approach. I want to encourage all our viewers
00:31:32.800
to go to fightthefines.com to watch that video in full. And if you want to chip in 5, 10, 20, even 100
00:31:39.740
bucks, we're paying for anyone who comes forward with these outrageous cases. So I think we're doing
00:31:45.980
the right thing. Sheila, thanks, my friend. Keep up the fight. Thanks, I will, boss. All right, there you
00:31:50.640
have it, Sheila Gunn-Reed, our chief reporter. Joining us via Skype from northern Alberta. Stay with us.
00:31:55.100
More ahead. Hey, welcome back. On my monologue yesterday about Trudeau banning Rebel News from
00:32:08.380
his press conferences while declaring support for press freedom, Ronda writes,
00:32:12.680
Trudeau doesn't like to be asked the right questions. Yeah, oh, the softballs he takes,
00:32:17.740
it's embarrassing. I mean, he's not embarrassed. He likes softball questions. That's why he likes to
00:32:23.240
speak at schools and take questions from children. But you'd think some reporters would have some
00:32:27.540
self-respect. Prime Minister, are you sure you're not burning out from working too hard? Prime
00:32:32.980
Minister, when are you going to get tough with these bottles of hand sanitizer coming in that
00:32:37.620
aren't bilingual French or English? They're the ones who should be embarrassed. I mean, in a way,
00:32:42.300
Trudeau's got to be laughing in his head. Rene writes, that burnout question is incredible. Our
00:32:47.480
hardworking PM was way on vacation from late December until he was forced to come back halfway through the
00:32:52.340
rail blockades. Now he's been in his rabbit hole since mid-March, except for his Easter break. I
00:32:56.940
assume that he's no longer on the payroll and is living on the monthly CERB payment. You're right.
00:33:01.560
You know, I went back and I studied every single foreign trip that Trudeau has gone on since he
00:33:06.900
became prime minister. He's taken a lot of them. But after the election, as I said in my monologue today,
00:33:12.920
he just checked out. He went on a 17-day vacation in Costa Rica, briefly came back. When the virus
00:33:20.620
started to bite, he went on a nine-day junket to, I think it was Ethiopia and a few other countries.
00:33:27.540
And then he's been 40 days plus in self-isolation, which no one has prescribed or ordered for him.
00:33:33.880
No one else in cabinet is doing that. He's basically taken 60 out of the last 90 days off.
00:33:42.380
It's incredible. On my interview with Aaron Rosenberg about our campaign, LetUsReport.com,
00:33:49.020
Melanie writes, kick some butt, Rebelews, get some good questions out there and wake those sleepy
00:33:53.500
Canadians up. Well, we'll see how it works. I mean, it was a long shot when we went to the Federal
00:33:59.100
Court of Canada last October, but we won that long shot and the court ordered the Debates Commission to
00:34:04.000
let us in. It'll be interesting to see if they do that with the Privy Council office that's controlling
00:34:08.560
those phone questions too. I promise I'll keep you posted on what happens, including what the
00:34:13.500
government says when they reply in, I guess, nine days. Well, that's our show for today. Until tomorrow,
00:34:19.580
on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night. Keep fighting for freedom.
00:34:41.820
For more information, tons of people stay included.
00:34:43.460
I will devant you at twists andию, to youka helps you.
00:34:47.500
Thanks for how it went to lengu香ba, believe it.
