Transcript

00:00:00.000 Tonight, a police document shows the entire Canadian political class was lying about the
00:00:05.520 mass shooter last month in Toronto. It's September 24th, and this is The Ezra Levant Show.
00:00:16.600 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:00:20.440 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:00:24.160 You come here once a year with a sign, and you feel morally superior.
00:00:27.140 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my
00:00:32.160 bloody right to do so.
00:00:37.940 Last month, a Muslim man named Faisal Hussain walked down Toronto's Greek Down neighborhood,
00:00:43.500 down the popular Danforth Avenue, shooting everyone he met. He murdered two women, an 18-year-old
00:00:51.060 named Reese Fallon and a 10-year-old girl named Juliana Kozis, and he wounded a dozen more.
00:00:57.860 Now, I just said Faisal Hussain walked down the street shooting everyone he met, but
00:01:00.960 that's not actually accurate. He ran into a man named Jaspal Singh, who's a Sikh man,
00:01:07.480 and Faisal Hussain, the murderer, told that Sikh man, who obviously has brown skin and could
00:01:13.040 appear to be Muslim, I suppose. Faisal Hussain told him, and I quote,
00:01:16.640 don't worry, I'm not going to shoot you. And he didn't shoot him, in fact. In fact, Hussain
00:01:24.860 later said to him, get out of the way to protect him from his mayhem. But this same Faisal Hussain
00:01:34.060 stood on top of a woman and shot her four times. How does that make sense? Why would a mass shooter
00:01:42.000 go out of his way to warn and even protect one random person and yet shoot another random person
00:01:49.380 four times?
00:01:50.100 Well, I don't think it's random. I'll give you my theory in a moment, and I'll give you
00:01:54.720 more facts. And these are rock-solid facts. The images I just showed you are statements
00:02:00.520 from police witnesses at the scene that day. The quotes I showed you were from a legal document
00:02:07.000 called an information to obtain telewarrant to search. In other words, it's the facts that
00:02:14.300 the police put to a judge on July 24th of this year, the day after the mass shooting,
00:02:19.020 to get a search warrant for the murderer's house and belongings. So this was all the facts
00:02:24.220 that the police had within the first 24 hours or so that were given to the judge. And as you
00:02:29.300 can see right there on the document, at 10.10 p.m., the warrant was in fact issued by a judge.
00:02:36.060 Now, information contained in a document like this, it's called an ITO in shorthand. It's
00:02:41.980 not tested in court yet. It's in the form of allegations, witness statements, etc. So
00:02:47.260 the facts here hasn't yet been challenged by the other side, even though there is no other
00:02:51.640 side here as the murderer apparently killed himself. Being a search warrant, it is done
00:02:56.360 ex parte, which means only the police go to court. The information is kept confidential because
00:03:01.520 the whole point of a search warrant is to move quickly and, if possible, with the element
00:03:04.940 of a surprise because you don't want people to move or hide or destroy things that you
00:03:08.660 want searched. So obviously the killer's family knew this search was coming. It wasn't a surprise.
00:03:13.560 They might have, in fact, moved or destroyed things. But let me show you this document
00:03:17.400 called the Information to Obtain. Because it's fascinating now that it's been made public.
00:03:23.140 And the reason it's fascinating is not only because it tells us more details about that horrific
00:03:27.120 shooting, but also because it proves that the official alibi served up both by the family
00:03:33.440 and the media and the federal government were all lies. They were lying about the shooter
00:03:40.160 and they knew it. But they lied anyway to you. They lied to you. Now, some of the information
00:03:47.120 in this Information to Obtain Search Warrant Request, it's vague, as it often is in the fog of the
00:03:53.120 moment, like this. Several witnesses reported seeing the shooter speaking with another male
00:03:58.960 or another male running from the scene. Now, that could be people just confused in the shock
00:04:04.960 and mayhem of the moment. The people running away could have been innocent bystanders fleeing.
00:04:10.520 The other male talking might have been Jaspal Singh, whose life was spared. We don't know.
00:04:15.660 You know how difficult it is to be a witness in a crisis. Three people can see the same car accident
00:04:20.840 and describe it in three different ways. And each of them can truly believe they're telling
00:04:24.240 the honest truth. So maybe there wasn't a second shooter there. But some witnesses said there were.
00:04:30.060 But here's another piece of information that we learned from this same police ITO that I hadn't
00:04:34.780 seen before, at least not widely published. The murderer, Faisal Hussain, he had reportedly had a
00:04:41.500 brother in a coma, a drug dealer brother, who was also associated with gun running. And we knew about
00:04:46.820 that. But he also has another brother, I suppose, who's not in a coma, who is his twin.
00:04:59.100 The Danforth murderer has a twin brother. Did you know that? I'm not saying the twin was involved.
00:05:08.200 I mean, how would I know? I'm just saying that was kept a pretty close secret till now, wasn't it?
00:05:13.060 Police say several witnesses claim to have seen another man. Was it him? I have no idea. The
00:05:20.800 brother hasn't been charged. I'll tell you more about the family soon. Now, Faisal Hussain, the
00:05:24.680 murderer, lived with his parents. He was 29 years old, bit of a loser. But let me tell you about his
00:05:30.420 bedroom at his parents' home. Look at Section 21 of this police ITO. Again, this is the document the
00:05:36.420 police took to the judge asking for a search warrant. They were in the home with a police dog. So that's
00:05:41.960 what the phrase, the dog hit this, means. It means the police dog found something. So let me quote from
00:05:47.660 this police document. The dog then hit on a sleigh bed that had two drawers under it. The dog indicated
00:05:55.760 on the left drawer. When the drawer was opened, the following was located. And then you see it's all
00:06:01.140 blacked out. I think that's by the judge. I presume that's whose signature that is before this ITO
00:06:07.560 document was released to the public. But it was done using a black pen. And it didn't actually
00:06:12.860 cover up the words very well. I'm not sure if you can see it through your TV screen. But if you look
00:06:16.520 very closely, you can clearly make out the words that were covered up. Two AK-47 magazines, fully loaded
00:06:25.380 with ammunition. Two 9mm handgun magazines, fully loaded with ammunition. A variety of handgun and
00:06:34.260 shotgun ammunition. That's what's blacked out. But I can still read it, and you can too. Why was that
00:06:41.000 blacked out? Why is that part being kept secret? This is what an AK-47 looks like, by the way. It's a
00:06:47.940 cheap submachine gun, often associated with terrorists. Or the third world, because it's of Russian
00:06:53.100 manufacture. There's some Chinese knockoffs too. So it's not hard to get, like a full machine gun,
00:07:00.060 but it's not easy to get. That is a Russian submachine gun. A 9mm handgun isn't easy to get
00:07:06.040 either. But an AK-47. How do you get one of those? And how do you keep all that AK-47 ammo
00:07:15.340 under your bed, just in a drawer, and your mom and dad never find it? Really? No, I haven't lived at
00:07:22.940 home with my parents in a long time. But I think I know that moms clean the house and check things out
00:07:28.480 out of curiosity, out of ownership, being nosy, I don't know, whatever. But we're told
00:07:35.000 that all this ammo was a great surprise to the parents. Yeah. I'll get back to that in a moment.
00:07:43.020 But look at what's unredacted. Right under there. A white powdery substance. What does that mean?
00:07:50.620 Was it just sugar or flour? Or cocaine? Or some sort of poison? And look at that underneath it.
00:07:57.340 An Islamic headdress. Huh. So that's what he kept in his chest of secrets. Guns, or at least ammo for
00:08:05.780 guns. And an Islamic headdress. And that white powder. I guess those things sort of go together
00:08:11.520 these days, don't they? Now in Section 28 of the ITO, police refer to a PIP check, a PIP check.
00:08:17.780 That stands for a police information portal. It's basically a big police database.
00:08:21.620 And they find that eight years ago, Faisal Hussein had three reports with the Toronto police calling him
00:08:27.440 an emotional disturbed person. Three within two months. They also say he needed an ambulance for
00:08:33.480 something. And that he drove with a suspended license. And that he was suspected of selling drugs.
00:08:40.000 Okay. So this is interesting. It shows a criminal. Not a nice little boy, as the media portrayed him.
00:08:44.940 He was disturbed. Or at least they say he was eight years ago. Who knows what that means? But
00:08:50.400 look at this part. This is paragraph 30 of the ITO, Section H. This is police interviewing his twin
00:08:56.020 brother. He advised that in the past, Faisal has robbed a store with a gun, called the police to say
00:09:06.580 he wanted to kill himself, and has been on antidepressants. Now those are three very different
00:09:12.300 things, aren't they? But robbing a store with a gun, that's not just selling some weed. That's armed
00:09:17.980 robbery. That's the stuff that can put you away in prison for a decade. Let me read some more. Here's
00:09:23.900 from the very next line. This is the twin brother talking about the murderer. He started attending the
00:09:29.780 mosque with his father, but did not seem that interested in religion. Oh, so he was going to mosque.
00:09:36.520 Next line. Faisal was into guns when he was younger, but has no idea how he would have obtained one. Yeah,
00:09:45.640 no idea. Sure you don't. I hear twins never tell each other anything. And one more.
00:09:55.940 About four years ago, he remembers Faisal visiting Pakistan with his father. Oh, really? You mean Pakistan,
00:10:03.380 the terrorist supporting state where Osama bin Laden was found hiding out? Pakistan, the Muslim ethno
00:10:09.340 state with nuclear weapons where Omar Khadr trained? Yeah, that Pakistan where the terrorists like to
00:10:14.880 use AK-47s. I'm sure it's nothing. Let's move down to the dad who was also interviewed by cops.
00:10:21.780 Section 32F of the police document says his dad, quote,
00:10:25.620 took Faisal to Islamabad, Pakistan about two to three years ago to visit family. Faisal was happy
00:10:33.220 on the trip and did not want to return because people left him alone there. Oh, really? So he didn't
00:10:39.640 really much like Canada, didn't want to come back to Canada, didn't like people here in Canada. He
00:10:43.900 liked it better in Pakistan. Next paragraph, his dad forces Faisal to attend Dur-Islam mosque as he does not
00:10:52.540 go willingly. I wonder if that's true. In the next line, Faisal didn't smile much lately and only came
00:11:00.660 out of his room to eat. Well, we know that's not true because he had a job. Maybe the dad means he
00:11:09.220 only didn't come out of his room when he was at home. Here's my favorite line. Ready? Do you think
00:11:14.640 this is true? The dad says he never saw any evidence of guns in the apartment and claims to
00:11:22.240 have checked the room every few weeks? Yeah, really? That's an odd way of putting it, isn't it?
00:11:27.880 For the dad, especially. Here's a story from July that talks about Faisal Hussain and his family and
00:11:33.500 guns. Ready? Danforth, gunman's pal accused in drugs, gun seizure. A longtime friend of Danforth
00:11:40.240 Avenue shooter Faisal Hussain was released on bail after being accused in the largest seizure of
00:11:44.940 carfentanil in Canadian history, along with 33 firearms and ammunition in his Pickering rental
00:11:50.340 property. Court transcripts state 33-year-old Maisam Ansari, who grew up in the same neighborhood as
00:11:57.060 Fahad Hussain, the brother of Greektown gunman Faisal Hussain, was charged last September with
00:12:03.480 possessing 53 kilograms of carfentanil, an analog of fentanyl, and 100 times stronger than the
00:12:10.440 painkiller and notoriously deadly street narcotic. By the way, carfentanil is so toxic, it's not just
00:12:17.040 a drug. It can be a terrorist weapon of mass destruction. It's like a kind of poison gas,
00:12:21.920 a chemical weapon. And 53 kilograms is enough, if it were, say, put into the ventilation system
00:12:27.340 of a building or a stadium to kill everyone inside. But I'm sure the dad knew nothing about
00:12:35.140 the guns and the white powdery substance. And the brother, too. They, they, both of them had
00:12:41.300 no idea, people. Swear to Allah, it's true. Look what the mom said. I'm guessing the police
00:12:47.420 used common sense and police tactics and interviewed the mom and the dad separately, so they couldn't
00:12:52.360 compare notes. Paragraph 33 of the ITO says the mom was unaware of why she was at the police
00:12:59.180 station. The situation was a claim to her and she was upset and did not know why he did the shooting.
00:13:05.800 Really, let me read more. Section F, she advised that she has never seen Faisal with a gun. He has no
00:13:13.980 friends and has never had a girlfriend. I believe that. Faisal stays in his room for hours listening to
00:13:20.460 music on his cell phone and goes for walks in the evening. But she does not know where he goes.
00:13:28.220 Really? Never seen him with a gun, eh? Had no idea there were guns in his room in her house.
00:13:35.940 Even after the family friend was arrested with 33 guns. Never heard of it, eh?
00:13:41.080 Brother says Faisal robbed a bank, but the mom hadn't heard of that. No, no, no. Just never heard it. Nah.
00:13:47.460 And you know, he goes for walks for hours, but she doesn't know where. Scouts on her. But look at
00:13:54.540 paragraph 33, section I. The mom advised the following about Faisal. She advised that he has
00:14:02.520 never left Canada. Has never left Canada. Really. Both the brother and her husband, the father,
00:14:12.100 said Faisal's name went with the father to Pakistan. But the mom just said, no, no, no. He's never left
00:14:18.580 Canada. Did she really forget her own husband and her own son going to Pakistan just a couple years
00:14:27.060 ago? Did she really forget that? Or was she trying to be clever and realizing that something bad
00:14:32.180 happened on that trip and best not to tell the police about it, not knowing what her other family members
00:14:37.280 might say and hoping they wouldn't blab? Here's some more from section 33 of this ITO. No drugs. Yeah.
00:14:46.320 I'll mention that again in a moment. Here's some more. Item eight. Faisal is saying never talked about
00:14:54.360 guns and never seen him angry. Never, eh? Not even during that huge arrest. Never seen him angry.
00:15:02.320 angry. You've been his mother for 29 years since he was an infant. Is it really true that you have
00:15:07.560 never seen him angry? You're not, what's the word? You're not lying, are you? Now look at paragraph
00:15:16.080 34 of the ITO. It refers to a propaganda statement, a PR statement, a press statement issued by the family.
00:15:22.820 As you can see, though, it wasn't signed. It was written in perfect English with a PR savvy and every
00:15:28.360 journalist in the media party ran with it as if it were the absolute gospel because it said,
00:15:32.100 well, they all wanted to hear. As the police quoted it, our son had several mental health
00:15:38.480 challenges, struggling with psychosis and depression his entire life, et cetera, et cetera. But that's
00:15:44.280 not actually true, is it? He had three incidents in 2010 where the police said he was disturbed, but
00:15:49.480 that's it for eight years. And you heard the mom. She said he wasn't on any drugs. Now, who knows what
00:15:56.260 she meant, but she said it? But of course, we learned that that statement was not actually
00:16:01.680 written by the family and it wasn't signed by the family. So I suppose it didn't pretend to be
00:16:06.140 written by the family. It was all a lie added by the media party. It was written, in fact, by a Muslim
00:16:12.140 political activist who knew he had a job to do to de-Islamify the shooting, to decriminalize the
00:16:18.200 shooting. It was just that mental illness, as is the usual way to go when a Muslim terrorist attack
00:16:23.220 happened. So it wasn't his lamp. It was mental illness people. He was such a nice kid. Or as CTV
00:16:29.140 actually put it at the time, people who knew him say he was unflinchingly polite, had a smile that
00:16:36.820 could light up a room, and worked multiple jobs, including at a Loblaws grocery store, to help take
00:16:42.380 care of his aging parents. They seriously wrote that about a mass murderer. But which was it? Was he
00:16:48.860 depressed? Or did he light up a room with a smile? Let me speed up because I want to cover some more
00:16:54.640 from this police ITO document. Look at section 35. And remember, this is what the police show the
00:16:59.600 judge. Now, this is where the police list what they seized and what they wanted permission from
00:17:04.720 the judge to search. This is what the search warrant was for. Look at this. Now, there's a lot of
00:17:09.280 blackouts here that I can't read through the ink, but look at what I can read. All right, count with me.
00:17:15.600 A Samsung S4 cell phone. A black cell phone with the words BLU on front and back. A black Galaxy
00:17:22.420 S4 Samsung. I guess that's another one. A silver Samsung phone. A black BlackBerry phone. What's
00:17:29.020 that? Is that five cell phones were up already? Do you have five cell phones on your Loblaws salary?
00:17:37.140 Active right there in your room. Do you have even two cell phones? Who has even two cell phones? I mean,
00:17:42.880 a criminal, maybe. A drug dealer, maybe. Someone trying to hide their tracks. Someone trying to
00:17:47.240 evade being traced. Five cell phones? And look at paragraph 36. There's more stuff.
00:17:54.540 Black IBM ThinkPad. White iPad. Silver iPad. Black IBM ThinkPad laptop.
00:18:00.840 Just how many computers and smartphones can one person use? I think that's nine of them. Nine
00:18:10.640 smartphones and computers for someone who works at Loblaws making, what, 15 bucks an hour. You got nine
00:18:17.160 smartphones and laptops. Oh, and AK-47 Hamo. And a trip to Pakistan that the mom denies. And a Muslim
00:18:26.700 headdress. What does that mean, by the way? Is it just a keffiyeh? Or did it have ISIS imagery on it?
00:18:32.760 Well, we don't know. Now, the last thing I'm going to mention is on page 20 of the ITO, called
00:18:37.960 Grounds to Believe the Item Sought Will Afford Evidence to the Offense. So, to be clear, there had
00:18:43.620 already been interrogations. There had already been a search. This was to get the court's permission to
00:18:49.060 unlock these locked smartphones and computers to see what was on them. Emails, communications,
00:18:54.700 things like that. What, five phones, four computers? I'm curious, aren't you? And the
00:19:00.620 cops list the obvious reasons why they want that authority from the judge. But the top of
00:19:06.080 page 21 is all blacked out. And I can't read through this one. Do you think just maybe,
00:19:12.000 just maybe it referred to ISIS? I bet it does. Because ISIS did, in fact, take credit for this
00:19:19.660 attack. ISIS isn't promiscuous that way. If you take credit for everything and anything,
00:19:24.700 no one believes you anymore. I don't trust ISIS, of course. I hate them, of course. But
00:19:29.300 when they say they take credit, there is often evidence for that. For example, Michael Zahaf-Beeboe.
00:19:35.840 That's the terrorist who murdered Corporal Nathan Cirillo and attacked our parliament before he went on
00:19:40.900 his spree. Well, he recorded into a cell phone, as you can see here, a statement where he said he was
00:19:46.980 doing this as inspired by the Islamic State. They hadn't positively direct him or planned it. They
00:19:53.440 inspired him and gave him advice, probably online, and he gave them a shout out on his phone. Is that
00:19:58.980 what happened here? Is that on one of his cell phones, maybe? I have no idea. But what I do know
00:20:06.800 is that the official story we were told here is a pack of lies. I think Faisal Hussain was a loser.
00:20:11.980 I believe that part. I believe that he had no girlfriend. I believe he's a loser living at home
00:20:16.580 with his parents. But what evidence is there of massive psychosis and extreme mental illness
00:20:21.740 as per the spin doctor's lies that the media all retailed? There is none. It's a lie. But we know his
00:20:28.780 brother was a gangster, at least one of them. And if there are two brothers, we know that his twin brother,
00:20:35.600 claimed that Faisal Hussain was a gangster too, who used a gun to rob a store. His father took him
00:20:42.740 to his Pakistan, and his mother is lying about that. The cops found AK-47 ammunition and 9mm handgun
00:20:49.840 ammunition in his room, and the courts tried to black that out, but we saw it. Now, why would they
00:20:54.640 black that out? What's that got to do with a secret? I mean, the murderer's dead. What else are they
00:21:00.600 blacking out? We know the media spin was a lie. We know that Ralph Goodale and Bill Blair,
00:21:07.900 Trudeau's cabinet ministers, immediately swooped in to say there was no terrorist connection. Well,
00:21:12.500 how could they have said so so quickly? Did they even know about the Pakistan trip? Did they know
00:21:17.760 about the AK-47 ammunition? Did they know about the Muslim headdress? Did they know about the white
00:21:21.660 powder? Did they know about the armed robbery? What else did they know? What else do they know that
00:21:25.620 they're not telling us? Why were they involved, by the way, at all, if this was just a mental health
00:21:29.520 thing? This mass shooting was a terrible tragedy for the two murder victims, and for the dozen
00:21:35.400 wounded victims, and for the peace and security of the city and the country. But what we're also
00:21:39.300 learning, whether it's this attack or the murder of Marissa Shen in Burnaby, allegedly by one of
00:21:44.440 Trudeau's Syrians, or whenever there's an attack preceded by the shout, Allah Akbar, what we know is that
00:21:50.260 immediately our news media stops being reporters and starts being anti-reporters, un-reporters,
00:21:55.200 spin doctors, down players, distractors. You can't trust the media, because they're not about
00:22:00.340 uncovering the truth. So back to Jasbal Singh. Remember him? That's the brown man, a Sikh man,
00:22:06.820 who could have been mistaken for a Muslim. He told police that the murderer walked up to him and said
00:22:12.720 he wouldn't kill him. He said the murderer told him later, get out of the way. But that same
00:22:20.500 murderer shot one woman, I presume a white woman, four times, bam, bam, bam, bam.
00:22:26.160 Why did the Muslim murderer spare a brown man? Was it because he thought he was a fellow Muslim?
00:22:33.460 Why did he drive all the way from his neighborhood in Thorncliffe Park to the Greek Christian
00:22:39.800 neighborhood of the Danforth? Why? Yeah, don't expect any further inquiries into that by anyone.
00:22:47.220 This police ITO document has more truth than we have been told before, but I am completely
00:22:53.220 sure that this will be spun in favor of the murderer by the mainstream press. If you want
00:22:58.260 to review the entire document for yourself, you can. We've posted it on our website under
00:23:02.660 this video. And I can promise you that no matter what names the media party call us, we're going
00:23:09.660 to continue to tell you the truth of the Danforth mass shootings, because that's our job, even
00:23:17.000 if the rest of the media has forgotten theirs. Stay with us for more.
00:23:21.840 Well, an interesting story over the past week has been the Chinese Canadian community breaking from
00:23:43.340 their assigned official narrative. Here's a video that we made summarizing what went on in two minutes.
00:23:49.680 Let's take a look. I am more than comfortable that doing what we've done, accepting in 25,000
00:23:57.820 Syrian refugees, does right by both the safety of Canadians and by the values that define us
00:24:06.620 as a nation. Would you be just as comfortable if there was a terrorist attack carried out
00:24:10.360 by someone who came through as a refugee? Ultimately, being open and respectful towards each other is
00:24:18.420 much more powerful as a way to defuse hatred and anger than, you know, layering on, you know,
00:24:28.560 big walls and oppressive policies.
00:24:31.560 Some people say that if it hadn't been for the surge in Syrian refugees after the 2015 election, guys like this guy would not be here.
00:24:40.560 Some people say that if it hadn't been for the surge in Syrian refugees after the 2015 election, guys like this guy would not be here.
00:24:55.560 I'm not one of those people who says that.
00:24:58.560 A life got terminated at 13 years old. And where's the leader? We are here, yes. We demand the Prime Minister to apologize.
00:25:07.560 Well, that petition at ApologizeNow.com has tens of thousands of signatures by all sorts of Canadians, but so many are Chinese Canadians who are furious with what they perceive to be second-class citizenship,
00:25:34.560 at least in the eyes of Justin Trudeau. What's so interesting is that some of our videos, which we had captioned in Chinese language,
00:25:41.560 have been featured in Chinese language media and have circulated in places that generally don't talk about conservative things.
00:25:48.560 But that's the thing about a 13-year-old girl murdered allegedly by one of Trudeau's Syrian migrants is that people start talking about things like justice and proper vetting of immigrants.
00:25:59.560 Well, that protest you saw at the end there, where that Chinese Canadian man said it's time for Trudeau to apologize, there were dozens of Chinese Canadians there.
00:26:08.560 There were a handful of Syrian migrant activists. That was a little vigil set up by a professional Syrian migrant advocate.
00:26:18.560 But there were also other British Columbians there who came in solidarity with the Chinese Canadian community.
00:26:25.560 And one of them joins us now in studio here in Toronto.
00:26:29.560 May I welcome to the studio Laura Lynn Thompson. Laura, great to see you here in Toronto.
00:26:33.560 Yes. Thank you. Thank you, Ezra. Thanks for all that you guys do at The Rebel.
00:26:36.560 Well, I'm so glad to have you here. And I know you've talked to our friend Sheila Gunn-Reed in the past.
00:26:40.560 Love, Sheila.
00:26:41.560 Me too. It was interesting to see you down there. Now, you live in Burnaby, which is where this horrific murder happened.
00:26:48.560 You're running for school trustee there. Tell me what it was like as a Burnaby resident.
00:26:54.560 Has this murder been front page news for really a year now?
00:26:57.560 Yes. Well, you know what? I actually live four minutes from the Burnaby area.
00:27:02.560 And when my Burnaby friends were grieving the loss and the Chinese community said they were going down,
00:27:08.560 I got a couple of people who just said, will you come? Will you come? It'd be great.
00:27:12.560 In fact, invite all your friends.
00:27:14.560 So I did, you know, send it out sort of to my friends and say, you know, who wants to go down?
00:27:19.560 But, you know, people are working and they're busy.
00:27:21.560 And I thought this will just be an ordinary day.
00:27:23.560 I'm going to head down to support my immigrant friends who are grieving the loss of this precious young Marissa Shen.
00:27:31.560 Not only that, but she was murdered in Central Park.
00:27:34.560 When I was growing up and I was 14, I spent hours and hours and hours of my life as a young girl in Central Park.
00:27:41.560 And it was just very personal, Ezra. And that's why I was there.
00:27:44.560 Yeah. And now I saw you were getting into a lively discussion.
00:27:49.560 I'm not going to call it an argument, although I saw there was one fella who was arguing with you.
00:27:53.560 I want to play a clip where you were making points similar to what you're saying here.
00:27:59.560 And someone accused you. You were standing there in support of Marissa Shen.
00:28:05.560 You were there with the Chinese Canadian community.
00:28:08.560 And yet someone called you an insult.
00:28:11.560 Let's play that clip right now. And I got a question for you afterwards.
00:28:14.560 Take a look.
00:28:15.560 My family will never have their daughter back. They will never enjoy a wedding.
00:28:20.560 They will never see anything that she goes through. Why? Because we are allowing all of these immigrants to cross the borders.
00:28:27.560 They're unbedded. They're unchecked. It's happening with thousands of people. It's not okay.
00:28:31.560 You're being a racist on national television.
00:28:33.560 What is racist about that? If they're white people, they shouldn't be crossing the border without us knowing who they are.
00:28:39.560 It has nothing to do with race. This is safety. This is about our land being safe.
00:28:44.560 And it's disgusting. And now a family is paying the ultimate price.
00:28:48.560 This guy should be sent back to where he came from or spend a lifetime in jail.
00:28:53.560 We don't have strong enough measures to be taken for the loss this family has faced.
00:29:00.560 So you were holding court there. It looked like a lot of different reporters. I saw Omnichannel, which I understand is a multicultural TV channel.
00:29:07.560 I know CBC was their CTV. Now someone said, how do you feel about being a racist on national TV?
00:29:14.560 Was that a reporter who asked that or was that some bystander?
00:29:18.560 I actually cannot be certain. My memory is completely gone of who was yelling this question at me.
00:29:25.560 I was absolutely in shock that they would think this was a racist issue when clearly I'm there supporting my immigrant friends who, you know, many of them speak Chinese and we have to communicate, you know, using chopped up English.
00:29:40.560 And I love these people. How is this a racist issue at all? I was very incensed by that.
00:29:46.560 And the only reason that I found myself in that scrum, I know I'm a media person, but I was incensed because there was another reporter
00:29:54.560 that was going after a Chinese immigrant man who was trying to express his sadness.
00:29:59.560 And they were saying to him things like, well, wasn't it difficult for you to get in here?
00:30:03.560 So you want stronger, stringent things more strong than you had, you know?
00:30:07.560 And so and I thought it was so offensive the way the reporters were speaking to this man that I piped up and there thereby got into the scrum of everybody speaking.
00:30:18.560 Isn't that interesting? And I saw that I did a show a few days ago how all the reporters said, oh, this is so unexpected, by which they mean, oh, these Chinese Canadians weren't saying what we want them to say.
00:30:30.560 They aren't in love with Trudeau Syrian migrants.
00:30:33.560 I believe that Chinese Canadians in the main came to Canada by applying and following the rules.
00:30:39.560 I don't see waves of Chinese Canadians sneaking in through the New York border with Quebec, as we see recently.
00:30:45.560 They're not being flown over, unvetted by Justin Trudeau as with the Syrians.
00:30:49.560 So if you're a Chinese Canadian in Vancouver, you probably follow the rules.
00:30:54.560 You probably pay taxes. You probably want to be protected.
00:30:58.560 And of course, you're incensed at these fakers, these bogus refugees from New York and the dangerous ones from Syria.
00:31:06.560 It's not a race issue. It's not even an immigration issue. It's a safety issue.
00:31:10.560 It's a safety issue. And the people that are the most upset by what is going on with this Trudeau policy to have unvetted people coming through are immigrants.
00:31:21.560 They are the people that have come to Canada because they love Canada.
00:31:24.560 They paid the price. They've done the paperwork. They've expressed their love for this nation.
00:31:30.560 They have come here. They want to be safe. They want their children to be safe.
00:31:34.560 And so what they see is a dangerous move by the Trudeau government in what he's doing.
00:31:40.560 It's very interesting because this is the second time that at least parts of the Chinese Canadian community have felt snubbed.
00:31:46.560 Earlier this year, there was an 11-year-old girl in the Toronto area who claimed she was attacked by an Asian man who allegedly attacked her with scissors to cut her hijab.
00:31:57.560 The story didn't make any sense in a bunch of ways, but instead of being whisked away in a police manhunt for this guy, they put her on TV.
00:32:09.560 An 11-year-old girl, it was so obviously not right. The lady was revealed as a hoax.
00:32:15.560 Now, Justin Trudeau put out a tweet immediately standing with this 11-year-old Muslim girl and her allegations against the Asian community.
00:32:23.560 So many Chinese people were furious. There were protests all across Canada, Ottawa, Toronto, Edmonton, probably others, because Trudeau did not take down his allegation.
00:32:34.560 After the hoax was revealed, Trudeau did not correct or retract in any way. So you have his immediate show of concern for a girl who was lying.
00:32:45.560 But Trudeau avoided this issue as much as possible because I think it's on him.
00:32:52.560 Right. And I actually saw the interview the other day where he was asked about what has happened to Marisa Shen.
00:32:59.560 And his response is so laughable and so offensive to the Chinese community.
00:33:06.560 I have been on their WeChats now because this kind of blew up after I was there that day, as you know, you know, with all this happened.
00:33:13.560 And they they just feel that Trudeau has an agenda. It's his own agenda.
00:33:18.560 And he now uses all of his policies to get reelected, not certainly for the safety of the people that have even come as immigrants to be kept safe.
00:33:29.560 And with Marisa Shen, this has hit this community to the core and they are very wounded over it.
00:33:36.560 I spoke with Marisa Shen's mother's lawyer and the worst this guy can get in Canada is 20 years and then deportation.
00:33:44.560 That is what the lawyer says. How that is not enough of a compensation.
00:33:50.560 So in 20 years, then he's let out Ezra into our midst, your daughter.
00:33:55.560 He'll be let out far earlier than that. I'm sure of it.
00:33:57.560 You mentioned Trudeau's reaction. We played briefly.
00:34:01.560 He was asked two questions by Paul Wells the other day.
00:34:05.560 We played the second one. But here here's a short clip of the first one.
00:34:09.560 He sort of smirks. He's not laughing at Marisa Shen.
00:34:13.560 He's sort of, why do I even have to answer this?
00:34:16.560 That's sort of the laughing. Take a quick look at this.
00:34:19.560 One is asking what you have to say about the arrest in British Columbia of Ibrahim Ali,
00:34:24.560 who is a Syrian refugee following the murder of a teenage girl named Marisa Shen.
00:34:29.560 Obviously, it's devastating news for her family, for her friends.
00:34:35.560 It's a terrible tragedy. Anytime someone is murdered, it's a terrible thing.
00:34:40.560 I trust our justice system. I trust our system to go through its processes,
00:34:47.560 to both apply consequences to this and to make sure that we're thinking about how we continue to keep people safe.
00:34:55.560 A lack of empathy, a lack of compassion. He was not laughing at the family.
00:35:01.560 He was sort of, the question, it's ridiculous.
00:35:04.560 I mean, the fact that he didn't show his heart, he was immediately there for the hijab hoax.
00:35:10.560 But the coldness here, I think that's what was shocking to everyone, not just the Chinese community.
00:35:15.560 Absolutely. And I've spoken with some Chinese, some of the community that generally vote liberal.
00:35:23.560 And the sense that they have is they are so, so upset by the response.
00:35:30.560 And they were already upset with some of the other things that Trudeau is doing.
00:35:35.560 Some of the policies he has that are really going against freedom of religion, freedom of thought, freedom of conscience.
00:35:40.560 In this country, people are up to hear with it.
00:35:43.560 Yeah. You know, you were called racist absurdly.
00:35:46.560 You're standing in solidarity with a Chinese Canadian family.
00:35:50.560 And I don't know who it was. It sounded like an old stock Canadian.
00:35:54.560 Almost like the same way they were interrogating these Chinese Canadians.
00:35:58.560 Oh, how dare you? Like, it's so weird to see these white liberals telling Chinese Canadians how they should feel.
00:36:05.560 But I want to show you the craziest thing. It's a vice.
00:36:09.560 I mean, vice isn't even a real thing.
00:36:11.560 But they published a story the other day.
00:36:14.560 Let's put it up on the screen right here called How Anti-Immigrant Rhetoric Crept Into Chinese-Canadian Politics.
00:36:22.560 And if you read through this, they actually imply that Chinese Canadians who are upset about this young girl being murdered,
00:36:30.560 the Chinese Canadians who want refugees vetted as strictly as they were vetted,
00:36:36.560 they actually imply that Chinese Canadians are white supremacists.
00:36:42.560 That's the insanity of the alt-left.
00:36:44.560 Right. Well, I can't believe it.
00:36:46.560 Lately, you know, I've been called like white privilege, basically.
00:36:50.560 Because, you know, Ezra, I was born in Uganda, East Africa.
00:36:54.560 My parents have never made more than $50,000.
00:36:57.560 They were missionaries.
00:36:59.560 They have saved a little nest egg because they believe in, you know, living well and saving money.
00:37:05.560 And I grew up in Uganda.
00:37:07.560 So I was the only white girl for the first eight years of my life in amongst the African,
00:37:11.560 my brothers and sisters, I call them.
00:37:13.560 I still feel I'm African-Canadian.
00:37:15.560 Then I went up to the high Arctic, to Tuktoyaktuk.
00:37:18.560 I was the only white girl in an Inuit school, only 800 in the whole community, right on the Beaufort scene.
00:37:25.560 I've been to Tuk.
00:37:26.560 Have you? To Tuk? Oh, not very many people can say that.
00:37:30.560 So I was bullied. I was thrown down on the ground.
00:37:34.560 My brother had, my little tiny brother had to come in my defense.
00:37:37.560 They hated me. They called me a white girl.
00:37:39.560 And now I'm in Canada, you know, in Vancouver, BC, standing up for an immigrant Chinese family.
00:37:47.560 And I'm called white privilege and white, you know, a white racist.
00:37:51.560 And how would I ever know?
00:37:53.560 And someone's even called me, you know, the Barbie white, you know, white blonde girl.
00:37:59.560 And so I'm being still bullied for being blonde, for being white.
00:38:04.560 Like this has gone to levels that are, that it makes no sense.
00:38:08.560 It's illogical and it's absolutely sickening.
00:38:11.560 Well, the fact that they're calling Chinese Canadians white supremacists shows that the word, like, if that's all that there's left here, I don't think that's going to be very effective with Chinese Canadians calling them racist.
00:38:22.560 It's not about the color of anyone's skin.
00:38:25.560 It's the fact that these people weren't properly vetted.
00:38:28.560 Justin Trudeau rushed them in.
00:38:29.560 But I want to I want to end by showing you were there speaking and people could disagree with you and people could debate you.
00:38:36.560 But someone walked by and threw a coffee at you.
00:38:43.560 Here, let's take a look.
00:38:47.560 So that we saw the coffee and we saw the person turning around.
00:38:51.560 Now I didn't see the face that looked like a hijab.
00:38:55.560 Was that a woman in a hijab?
00:38:57.560 I can't even tell if that was a woman or a Muslim woman or a Syrian woman.
00:39:02.560 Let's play it one more time and let's take a look so you can see the coffee being thrown and then the person turning away and walking away.
00:39:12.560 And all the media saw it.
00:39:13.560 I saw it in a different version of this.
00:39:15.560 You can see a CBC logo on a microphone.
00:39:17.560 Who was that person?
00:39:18.560 Right.
00:39:19.560 I have no idea.
00:39:20.560 Did you see them?
00:39:21.560 I make eye contact?
00:39:22.560 I made eye contact in a very brief, I would say literally a, a, a woman in a hijab.
00:39:26.560 I literally ate a second in a bit.
00:39:29.560 And the, what, what I was most taken back by was not just the drink being thrown at me, but the hatred in their, in their eyes.
00:39:40.560 Was that a woman?
00:39:41.560 I believe it was, but it was a, a very unattractive woman.
00:39:45.560 If I could be so bold as to say.
00:39:47.560 Was she wearing a, was it a hijab?
00:39:49.560 Was that an ethnic scarf or like, I don't know.
00:39:52.560 And I don't want to guess it was so quick.
00:39:54.560 It was so quick.
00:39:55.560 If there were, if there was a Syrian vigil there and I saw other Syrian women.
00:39:59.560 Yes.
00:40:00.560 With the hijab.
00:40:01.560 Did you recognize this?
00:40:02.560 So you think it was a woman wearing a hijab.
00:40:04.560 Yes.
00:40:05.560 Was it a Syrian person maybe?
00:40:06.560 It, it could be.
00:40:07.560 It was definitely someone of dark complexion, but I, I do not know, nor could I testify that that would be a Syrian refugee that lived.
00:40:15.560 It seemed to me the person lived in the neighborhood.
00:40:18.560 Okay.
00:40:19.560 Because they sauntered through.
00:40:20.560 Okay.
00:40:21.560 The fact that no one did anything.
00:40:22.560 And I'll tell you what else is very interesting Ezra, is that there's no audio.
00:40:26.560 I know that this was released by Omni, I think to our best understanding.
00:40:30.560 Right.
00:40:31.560 And they didn't release it with no, with no audio.
00:40:33.560 Right.
00:40:34.560 Why has CBC not released it?
00:40:35.560 Right.
00:40:36.560 To my knowledge, to this moment.
00:40:37.560 Right.
00:40:38.560 They were all there.
00:40:39.560 CBC, CTV, Global, they were all there.
00:40:40.560 Yes.
00:40:41.560 They were all, they all saw it.
00:40:42.560 And in a different clip than that, you can see the CBC logo on a microphone.
00:40:46.560 Yes.
00:40:47.560 So they all saw it.
00:40:48.560 Yes.
00:40:49.560 And they didn't stop.
00:40:50.560 They didn't break a beat.
00:40:51.560 They didn't chase this person down.
00:40:52.560 No.
00:40:53.560 They didn't say, who are you?
00:40:54.560 They didn't follow her.
00:40:55.560 If the roles were reversed, if, God forbid, someone had thrown a hot coffee on a Muslim
00:41:00.560 woman in a hijab and just continued to stroll, you know that all the journalists would have
00:41:05.560 immediately ran, who's the white supremacist?
00:41:07.560 This would have been the top of the news.
00:41:09.560 For sure.
00:41:10.560 The only media that reported this much later was Global, after the police said they were investigating.
00:41:15.560 Right.
00:41:16.560 Well, good for Global.
00:41:18.560 They were all there.
00:41:19.560 They knew it had happened.
00:41:20.560 You know, it took me five minutes to get all of the gunk off my face and down my jacket.
00:41:26.560 I've been asked, did that person say something?
00:41:29.560 I believe that they did say something, but it was so fast, Ezra, and you can see in the
00:41:33.560 clip that I'm kind of talking and the drink comes on me.
00:41:36.560 You weren't paying attention.
00:41:37.560 You were focused on other things.
00:41:38.560 And it was in hindsight that I thought, I think they did say something.
00:41:41.560 And I would love to know what that is.
00:41:43.560 Yeah.
00:41:44.560 People or Omni and CBC know what that is because they have the audio.
00:41:49.560 And they were, you know what, that's, they're not reporting the story.
00:41:52.560 They're anti-reporting.
00:41:53.560 Right.
00:41:54.560 They're unreporting.
00:41:55.560 They're disreporting.
00:41:56.560 They're filtering.
00:41:57.560 They're protecting.
00:41:58.560 They're tailoring.
00:41:59.560 Which is exactly what they were doing when they were saying, oh, these Chinese Canadians
00:42:04.560 are so unexpectedly against Trudeau.
00:42:06.560 Oh, Mr. Chinese Canadian, you're white supremacist.
00:42:09.560 I mean, of course they're tailoring.
00:42:11.560 Yes.
00:42:12.560 Of course they're lying.
00:42:13.560 And you know, Ezra, I'd like to really give props to the police.
00:42:16.560 Do you know that as soon as I reported it, they, within just a couple of hours, I was down at the police station.
00:42:24.560 We did an audio and video recording of my statements.
00:42:28.560 I gave them all information that I know.
00:42:31.560 They followed up with me, even this very morning, in letting me know that they are actively pursuing it.
00:42:37.560 They are looking at all the court.
00:42:38.560 Oh, good.
00:42:39.560 Apparently there's excellent view.
00:42:40.560 Oh, I bet there's a lot of close circuit TVs.
00:42:41.560 Yes, there's.
00:42:42.560 But we do, it would be good to know the audio.
00:42:44.560 Yeah.
00:42:45.560 I'm very curious about a clip released with no audio.
00:42:48.560 We're in media.
00:42:49.560 Why would you do that?
00:42:50.560 Yeah, don't expect the government journalists of the state broadcaster to help you out there.
00:42:53.560 Yes.
00:42:54.560 They're working for Justin Trudeau.
00:42:55.560 I did something, Ezra, by the police, I was told, because I insisted, please get the video.
00:43:00.560 Please get the audio and video from CBC and Omni, because I actually know the CBC cameraman
00:43:08.560 personally, and I verified that he had it all.
00:43:10.560 Right, right.
00:43:11.560 And he told me he did.
00:43:12.560 Please get it.
00:43:13.560 And do you know what they said?
00:43:14.560 They said, you know, we really can't.
00:43:16.560 It has been a mandate that has come down from the Trudeau government that they do not
00:43:22.560 have to cooperate with the police, that media does not have to cooperate with the police.
00:43:27.560 Well, as a general rule of thumb, police would need a warrant to get something like that,
00:43:30.560 but they can apply for a warrant.
00:43:32.560 The fact, and I think that's probably appropriate that the government, that the broadcasters don't
00:43:37.560 act as an arm of the police.
00:43:38.560 But it's not to act as an arm of the police they should release it.
00:43:41.560 They should release that because it's newsworthy.
00:43:44.560 Right.
00:43:45.560 It's extremely newsworthy.
00:43:46.560 And we know that they would release it.
00:43:48.560 They would rush to release it if the roles were reversed.
00:43:51.560 So I think that the police should apply for a search warrant to get the identity of that person.
00:43:58.560 Yes.
00:43:59.560 But why are we even talking about that having to happen?
00:44:02.560 Where's good common decency?
00:44:03.560 This should be news.
00:44:04.560 This is news.
00:44:05.560 Where's good common decency, Ezra?
00:44:06.560 Where is Canadian decency where we all go?
00:44:08.560 Well, we're just a news element.
00:44:09.560 These are reporters who aren't reporting.
00:44:11.560 Right.
00:44:12.560 Where you say, wow, a crime happened right caught on camera.
00:44:14.560 Yeah.
00:44:15.560 Don't we release this?
00:44:16.560 Yeah, throw it down the memory hole.
00:44:17.560 It could have been acid.
00:44:18.560 I am an outspoken person.
00:44:19.560 Well, there's acid attacks in London all the time.
00:44:21.560 I tend to create a little controversy wherever I go because I speak common sense and logic.
00:44:27.560 I speak what Canadians are afraid to say out loud.
00:44:30.560 All of those, when you did your tweet and it went viral and, you know, the thousands,
00:44:35.560 hundreds of thousands of views on that thing, you know, people were saying this could have
00:44:40.560 been much worse.
00:44:41.560 And people, in fact, in Europe and places like that are having, you know, nasty substances
00:44:48.560 thrown towards them.
00:44:50.560 So, my husband was concerned.
00:44:51.560 My friends were concerned.
00:44:53.560 And it's beginning to be an act of courage to even speak truth in this nation.
00:44:58.560 And that's sad.
00:44:59.560 You know, you're referring to a tweet.
00:45:00.560 We'll just put it up on the screen here for a second.
00:45:02.560 I just showed that very brief clip and I pointed out the attack on you.
00:45:08.560 I just wrote that tweet in like a minute.
00:45:10.560 Right.
00:45:11.560 And last I checked, it had been seen by more than 1.6 million people.
00:45:17.560 And the clip on there 400,000 times.
00:45:20.560 Why?
00:45:21.560 Because the media party has a cone of silence over that.
00:45:26.560 Because the official journalists, the proper journalists, the mainstream media are hiding
00:45:32.560 it.
00:45:33.560 Why?
00:45:34.560 It is not normal for 1.6 million people to look at a tweet.
00:45:37.560 That's not normal.
00:45:38.560 Right.
00:45:39.560 It shows people are hungry for facts here and they know the official channels are lying.
00:45:44.560 Yes.
00:45:45.560 And in fact, you know, they do not trust the mainstream media.
00:45:50.560 You're doing the kind of media that gets to the bottom of things.
00:45:54.560 I, in my very small way, put out my own posts that people know that I'll tell the truth.
00:46:01.560 And we're facing a crisis in our nation, Ezra.
00:46:05.560 We do not have courageous conversations anymore in Canada, not in the public forum.
00:46:13.560 We do not have courageous leaders.
00:46:15.560 We do not have courageous politicians.
00:46:18.560 And I'm speaking about every party in our nation.
00:46:22.560 And guess what?
00:46:23.560 The grassroots people fed up to here over it.
00:46:26.560 You can be up here and be out of touch with what is going on.
00:46:29.560 But the grassroots people, they're like, no, we're not falling for this.
00:46:33.560 Yeah.
00:46:34.560 And it's very interesting that that's now the Chinese community shares that point of view.
00:46:37.560 Well, listen, Laura Lynn Thompson, what a pleasure to have you here in Toronto.
00:46:40.560 It's been great.
00:46:41.560 Thanks for going on Sheila's shows.
00:46:42.560 I know she talks to you about a variety of subjects.
00:46:45.560 We wish you good luck in your campaign for the school trustee in Burnaby.
00:46:50.560 Yes.
00:46:51.560 And stay safe on the streets.
00:46:52.560 You know, it's the alt left.
00:46:55.560 And I don't know who this attacker was.
00:46:57.560 I don't even know if it's a woman.
00:46:59.560 I didn't see the face.
00:47:00.560 I mean, from the gate, who knows who it was.
00:47:03.560 But it's dangerous.
00:47:04.560 It was hard to tell.
00:47:05.560 Yeah, it's dangerous out there.
00:47:06.560 Stay safe and keep fighting for freedom.
00:47:08.560 I will.
00:47:09.560 Thank you, Ezra, for all you guys do.
00:47:10.560 I get the feeling you will.
00:47:11.560 Thank you very much.
00:47:12.560 All right.
00:47:13.560 There you have Laura Lynn Thompson, who was the center of the action in terms of the conversation
00:47:18.560 and the coffee throwing that day on the streets of Vancouver.
00:47:21.560 We will keep you posted on that story, which has so much interest both in the general community,
00:47:26.560 but also the Chinese Canadian community, tens of thousands of whom have signed our petition.
00:47:32.560 Stay with us.
00:47:33.560 More ahead on The Rebel.
00:47:41.560 Hey, welcome back on my monologue Thursday night about the ongoing NAFTA negotiations
00:47:49.560 and Chrystia Freeland's t-shirt.
00:47:51.560 I'm sure you're generating a lot of buzz with the fangirl Canadian media party.
00:47:56.560 Robert writes,
00:47:57.560 Strange how, other than communist China, no one else seems to have a problem making a deal with Trump.
00:48:02.560 Well, look, Trump is a deal maker.
00:48:05.560 His book is called The Art of the Deal.
00:48:08.560 If he can make a deal with Mexico, if he can, looks like he's making a deal with North Korea,
00:48:15.560 if he can make a deal with the European Union, including that kooky president of the EU junker,
00:48:21.560 he can make a deal with anyone.
00:48:23.560 And you have to when you're a New York real estate developer.
00:48:26.560 The fact that he has not yet come to a deal with Canada suggests that Canada doesn't want a deal.
00:48:32.560 Trump wants a deal.
00:48:34.560 Maybe Canada doesn't want that deal.
00:48:36.560 But you've got to resist pretty hard, if you're Canada, not to get a deal with Donald Trump.
00:48:41.560 I think Trudeau doesn't want a deal.
00:48:43.560 Maybe Trump prefers it that way.
00:48:45.560 Wanda writes,
00:48:46.560 I'm beginning to think that the cabal of craze leftists around Trudeau actually believe that if we have 160,000 new jobless people on our hands,
00:48:54.560 that's a good thing.
00:48:55.560 More proof of the evils of capitalism.
00:48:57.560 More victims to throw money at.
00:48:58.560 More bureaucracy needed to administer the welfare programs.
00:49:01.560 Less carbon wafting around in the atmosphere.
00:49:03.560 More taxation of those who still have jobs.
00:49:05.560 One step closer to the Venezuelan model of prosperity.
00:49:09.560 You know, I know that sounds crazy and you're trying to be dramatic and, you know, an argument ad absurdum or by absurdity to the point of absurdity.
00:49:20.560 I know you're trying to do that.
00:49:21.560 I understand the nuance of your letter.
00:49:24.560 But I've got to say that's a real possibility.
00:49:27.560 Because they seem to rejoice in the shutting down of the oil industry and the pipeline industry and fracking and timber and coal.
00:49:38.560 And that's hundreds of thousands of jobs.
00:49:40.560 So if they're willing to scotch literally $100 billion when you add up all the LNG, liquefied natural gas, all the pipelines,
00:49:47.560 $100 billion in a country as small as Canada, maybe you're right.
00:49:53.560 Someone with the nickname Alberta MAGA, make Alberta great again, writes,
00:49:58.560 I would love it if Ford and other provinces made their own deals.
00:50:01.560 Why shouldn't they?
00:50:02.560 The liberals are useless and not going to get anything done anyways.
00:50:06.560 Well, that's the thing about a country, though, is that international dealings are generally the jurisdiction of the federal government.
00:50:13.560 If I can refer you to our Constitution, the Constitution Act, used to be called the BNA Act back in 1867,
00:50:20.560 it splits the powers between the feds and the provinces.
00:50:24.560 Feds get international things like the armed forces and foreign treaties.
00:50:29.560 The provinces get things of a more local nature.
00:50:32.560 You wouldn't want every province and every town signing a different foreign treaty.
00:50:39.560 You just wouldn't.
00:50:40.560 It's not a country anymore, is it?
00:50:42.560 So, yeah, I mean, for better or for worse, and it's usually for better, the federal government alone handles treaties.
00:50:49.560 I like the fact that Doug Ford went down there as a symbol that not all Canadians support Justin Trudeau.
00:50:55.560 I love the fact that he dared to have lunch at Trump Tower, because you know that Christian Freeland would never do that.
00:51:01.560 Just the thought of giving 100 bucks in lunch or whatever it costs to Trump and smiling as eating Trump's food,
00:51:08.560 that would be so distasteful to Freeland.
00:51:10.560 And that's exactly why Doug Ford did it, to show I'm not hostile to Trump.
00:51:14.560 I think that was actually the most brilliant move of that whole trip.
00:51:17.560 I'm pessimistic, though. I remain pessimistic.
00:51:20.560 But I do say that by far Doug Ford is my favorite premier in Canada now.
00:51:25.560 And I know that's like saying he's the tallest short guy.
00:51:27.560 But him and Saskatchewan, Scott Moe, those guys are holding the fort.
00:51:32.560 Jason Kenney will be on the team soon enough next year.
00:51:35.560 And who knows? Quebec is coming up.
00:51:37.560 We've got to get Eric Duem on the show to give us an update,
00:51:39.560 because the last poll I saw showed CAC, the Coalition Aventure de Quebec.
00:51:45.560 Quebec, forgive my accent, is in the lead in the polls.
00:51:48.560 That's really, it's not the Liberals and it's not the PQ
00:51:52.560 and it's not the radical Solidaire party.
00:51:55.560 It's the closest thing to a liberty-oriented party in Quebec.
00:52:00.560 Wouldn't that be amazing if they won?
00:52:02.560 Anyways, we'll have to have Eric on to talk about that.
00:52:05.560 Well, thanks for watching tonight.
00:52:07.560 For those of you who tuned in on Friday and saw that the show wasn't there,
00:52:10.560 please accept our apologies.
00:52:12.560 There was a power blackout through much of Ontario because there was a windstorm.
00:52:16.560 You might say, well, what's that got to do with anything?
00:52:18.560 Well, Ontario diverted so many billions of dollars away from just maintaining the grid.
00:52:23.560 There are blackouts and brownouts all the time in Toronto.
00:52:28.560 Throughout the province, really.
00:52:30.560 But in Toronto, I think for a big city of its size in North America,
00:52:35.560 it probably has more power blackouts than any other city in North America.
00:52:38.560 I haven't studied that, but that's just a hunch I have.
00:52:40.560 That's what happens when you divert tens of billions of dollars to unreliable green schemes.
00:52:45.560 So a windstorm knocked out a bunch of power.
00:52:47.560 We were unable to upload and process the video on Friday night.
00:52:50.560 So apologies for that.
00:52:52.560 And hopefully that won't happen again.
00:52:53.560 It's the first time that's happened to us in three and a half years.
00:52:56.560 So hopefully it won't happen for a while.
00:52:58.560 Anyways, until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters,
00:53:02.560 to you at home.
00:53:03.560 Thanks for watching.
00:53:04.560 Good night and keep fighting for freedom.
