Welcome to Rebel Roundup, ladies and gentlemen, and the rest of you,
00:00:07.500
in which we look back at some of the very best commentaries of the week by your favourite rebels.
00:00:17.980
it appears that the monstrous anti-free speech creature known as Section 13
00:00:23.360
might be resurrected and put back into the Canadian Human Rights Act.
00:00:28.400
But why is it that the Conservatives who killed this provision in 2013
00:00:34.060
seem to have no problem with its gruesome return?
00:00:38.340
Ezra Levant shall explain all, while he's still allowed to, that is.
00:00:42.640
British Columbians are fed up with gas prices topping $1.70 a litre,
00:00:49.540
Rather, they're going south to Washington state to fill up the tank
00:00:53.780
while they're financially benefiting, of course, the local B.C. economy is not.
00:00:59.680
But as Kian Bexty notes, this is a direct result of pipeline paralysis.
00:01:05.440
And don't expect that to change unless there is regime change.
00:01:14.420
And I'll share some of your responses regarding my interview
00:01:17.980
with a Muslim attendee at Al-Quds Day in Toronto last Saturday.
00:01:24.560
and that he wants Sharia law to replace Canadian law.
00:01:28.640
But I was chilled to the bone that he was seemingly gleeful
00:01:32.480
that one aspect of Sharia law would require executing gays in Canada.
00:01:41.000
Those are your rebels. Now let's round them up.
00:01:43.560
Metro Vancouver is going through a gasoline crisis right now.
00:01:55.480
A buck 70 a litre is what the locals are paying to fill up their cars.
00:02:03.240
It puts them at almost a hundred bucks to fill up their car
00:02:05.960
if they want to drive their kids to soccer practice
00:02:18.560
to make sure no pipelines are built through British Columbia.
00:02:26.220
to turn off the taps from Alberta to British Columbia.
00:02:31.220
to import as much fuel from Alberta as possible.
00:02:38.360
well, there's just no room in British Columbia for pipelines.
00:02:42.240
I'm going to go to the most expensive gas station
00:02:47.480
and I'm going to ask the people filling up with gas,
00:02:51.540
Who do they blame for making them pay through the nose
00:02:56.140
How does $1.70 a litre make you feel filling up?
00:03:18.480
Wow, when you even have the owners of fuel-sipping misers
00:03:27.420
then you really know you have an energy crisis on your hands.
00:03:31.100
Little wonder there's been an increasing number of BC motorists
00:03:35.160
making an economic statement by crossing over the border
00:03:42.220
not to mention supply-managed and artificially inflated
00:03:45.420
food commodities such as milk, eggs, and chicken.
00:03:59.660
And joining me now to talk about the BC rip-off
00:04:02.880
at the gas pumps is our roving reporter, Kian Bexty.
00:04:11.840
Now, that was a very enlightening report you filed, Kian,
00:04:14.660
but I was really taken aback by some of the street of responses
00:04:27.840
which is actually a victim of federal government pipeline policies.
00:04:33.240
if she would support the Trans Mountain expansion,
00:04:40.300
Kian, it seems to me that a percentage of British Columbians
00:04:44.100
just don't realize that the guys wearing the black hats here
00:04:48.300
are Justin Trudeau and their very own premier, Hulk Horgan.
00:04:54.460
Well, I think that it stems from them not being educated enough
00:05:08.440
that's coming out of the pump and into their car.
00:05:11.640
80% of the fuel products about there in Metro Vancouver
00:05:20.340
and it's Alberta bitumen that they're putting into their car,
00:05:27.960
oh, it's Alberta's fault, the gas prices are so high,
00:05:40.720
which is a hard concept for them to wrap their heads around.
00:05:49.500
It's not really, like, it's not any new ground, as they say,
00:05:57.460
They don't really understand that that's really
00:06:04.060
through that pipeline that's existing right now.
00:06:08.740
And, Kian, this is BC's own doing to a large part, too.
00:06:13.100
And we had this discussion a few months ago, I believe,
00:06:16.440
where we speculated that maybe it's time for Jason Kenney
00:06:23.780
Maybe it's time for him to give a 90-day warning
00:06:28.160
and we can't get our product into your province,
00:06:31.480
then we're just going to turn off the taps altogether.
00:06:35.840
And then we'll see what happens to your gasoline prices.
00:06:38.680
Does Jason Kenney have the backbone to do that, Kian?
00:06:42.140
And because, to me, I see that as a no-loss situation.
00:06:47.560
That's win-win for Jason Kenney and his province.
00:06:51.140
Well, I mean, there's only so much that we can do.
00:06:54.220
Alberta has been roadblocked at every opportunity.
00:07:03.960
that we need to get our oil and gas industry back on top
00:07:12.000
because of the American monopsyme on our products.
00:07:24.260
John Horgan took Jason Kenney to court, effectively,
00:07:28.800
over wanting to regulate the contents of the pipeline,
00:07:34.880
The panel ruled in a 5-0 ruling in favor of Alberta,
00:08:00.440
but it seems like the people who are taking their time
00:08:02.020
out of their day to drive to Bellingham to fill up
00:08:09.960
and of course we can't read Jason Kenney's mind,
00:08:14.140
I think it's time for him to fight back on this file.
00:08:33.380
Further to that, I checked the U.S. dollar today,
00:08:45.800
The Canadian dollar is at a really bad vantage point.
00:09:00.980
This is just a drain of money from Canada into the U.S.,
00:09:19.700
and this is a real-life example of the Laffer curve,
00:10:01.940
the entire revenue is going to an American company,
00:10:29.440
You're probably going to have lunch or dinner there,
00:10:39.080
well, actually, it's been 30 years since I did that,
00:10:58.460
are they clamping down at all a little more than usual
00:11:03.160
Well, I bet John Horgan would wish that they would
00:11:07.180
because it's John Horgan that has egg on his face
00:11:21.500
that she had covered up with black garbage bags.
00:11:24.140
So they're certainly not trying to broadcast it
00:11:30.440
I don't think you actually have to claim gasoline
00:11:38.740
that you're actually almost importing into the country.
00:11:49.900
Ah, the old garbage bag over the shopping bag trick,
00:12:29.920
you're putting it to the tax man for good reason.
