Tonight, Justin Trudeau proposes a new national holiday based around shaming Canadians as racist.
00:00:06.440
It's August 15th and you're watching The Ezra LeVant Show.
00:00:14.760
Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:00:18.580
There's 8,500 customers here and you won't give them an answer.
00:00:22.300
You come here once a year with a sign and you feel morally superior.
00:00:25.280
The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:00:36.120
This is the official federal government website listing statutory holidays.
00:00:46.100
Not all of them are holidays for the rest of us.
00:00:49.220
For most people, for example, Remembrance Day is not a day off work.
00:00:52.080
In fact, the Legion says they don't want it to be a day off work.
00:00:55.480
They don't want it to turn into just another fun day, a party day, a day at the lake.
00:00:59.520
They want two minutes of silent reflection and memorial wreaths laid, not a fun day.
00:01:04.580
But the rest of those days, look at the nature of them.
00:01:07.400
There's something large and positive and reinforcing about them.
00:01:11.520
Victoria Day, that's named after the great queen of the British Empire, the Empress, who was the queen when Canada was born.
00:01:18.560
Most of the rest of the holidays go to our Western Christian traditions, Christmas, Easter, Thanksgiving.
00:01:24.300
Boxing Day is a British tradition we inherited from them.
00:01:26.800
Labor Day, that's a left-wing political holiday, but that's fine.
00:01:30.840
Civic holiday couldn't be more generic, could it?
00:01:33.580
The government loves statutory holidays, of course.
00:01:42.180
There's only about 200 working days in the whole year to begin with.
00:01:45.520
And so 11 days off is a lot, but now we're going to get another.
00:01:52.420
It's not commemorating the founder of Christianity like Christmas.
00:01:56.040
It's not commemorating the Empress when Canada was born, Queen Victoria, or the soldiers who died for all of us, Remembrance Day.
00:02:03.480
Here, here is the new holiday that will unite and uplift our country, inspire our people, rejuvenate them, be something we can all look forward to.
00:02:13.300
Well, federal government to declare a new statutory holiday to mark painful residential school legacy.
00:02:25.460
We're going to have a holiday that's a national shame on us day, really?
00:02:31.180
A national day of pain, a day to condemn ourselves and hate ourselves?
00:02:37.460
The federal government is consulting with indigenous groups before declaring a national statutory holiday to mark the painful legacy of Canada's Indian residential schools.
00:02:47.580
The main sticking point has been choosing a date for the annual event.
00:02:52.400
That's the biggest quibble requirement they have.
00:02:55.060
What day we're going to have this shame fest on?
00:02:57.160
Nobody thinks it's maybe not a great idea to obsess on the negative, to emphasize it, to enshrine it, to define ourselves by it.
00:03:07.720
This is about social engineering, political engineering.
00:03:10.120
It's about race, blame, and racial division, and it's about negativity.
00:03:16.980
The overall picture is that it is important to have that day set aside so Canadians continually get it
00:03:24.460
and will never, ever forget the impact of genocide in the residential schools on indigenous peoples,
00:03:32.300
Perry Bellegarde, the national chief of the Assembly of First Nations, said in a recent telephone interview.
00:03:44.320
You will never stop being shamed and blamed if this becomes law.
00:03:48.080
Whatever you have to submit is an explicitly political holiday, explicitly designed to attack you, to force you to get it.
00:04:00.260
And the get it that you have to get is, we're evil.
00:04:06.320
TRC, by the way, stands for Truth and Reconciliation Commission.
00:04:09.780
Contrary to its name, it was a blame-storming, scapegoating lobby group that accused Canada of genocide.
00:04:19.300
The TRC, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission, found that the schools which operated for more than 100 years
00:04:28.720
Canada's first prime minister, Sir John A. MacDonald, said it was important to withdraw children from the influence of their parents
00:04:33.680
and, quote, put them in central training industrial schools where they will acquire the habits and modes of thought of white men, unquote.
00:04:43.200
Do you believe that Canada committed, their words, a genocide against Aboriginal people?
00:04:49.420
That's a word we use in relation to Adolf Hitler.
00:04:52.120
Maybe for Stalin's Holodomor in Ukraine and the Turks murdering more than a million Armenians.
00:05:05.560
Genocide means murdering a whole genetic group.
00:05:15.840
Our democratically elected first prime minister, our founding father of the Confederation, did he do that?
00:05:23.220
You'd have to be insane or illiterate to think that.
00:05:28.700
But to call him a genocider and to say that we are all complicit in it and we have to be told that until we get it.
00:05:36.600
But, of course, this is where the official people are.
00:05:39.380
They just took down the statue of Sir John A. MacDonald from in front of the City Hall of Victoria, B.C.
00:05:47.440
Hey, have you looked at your $10 bill lately, the new ones?
00:05:51.420
Trudeau took Sir John A. MacDonald right off it.
00:05:58.840
Seriously, I'm sure she's a nice lady, but she's not our founding prime minister.
00:06:03.940
By the way, I am sympathetic to an Aboriginal Day of some sort because it would be as Canadian as it gets.
00:06:13.440
It's historically appropriate to Canada geographically, legally.
00:06:17.280
I'm not thrilled with the billions of dollars that a new stat holiday will cost.
00:06:20.620
Perhaps we can simply rename Civic Holiday as Aboriginal Day or something.
00:06:25.340
I'm okay with that, actually, because it is inherently and originally Canadian.
00:06:30.400
But what fool, what knave, what malicious activist, what spiteful negative schemer would structure such a day built around failure and pain and suffering and shame and scolding and antipathy and animosity and accusations and hate?
00:06:53.620
Why would you emphasize a negative chapter in a history?
00:06:58.760
And by the way, it must be said, but so few do say it, so I will say it.
00:07:02.500
It is not universally accepted that residential schools were evil.
00:07:05.380
And I say that because I know a great man who went to a residential school, and I remember once when he told me unequivocally that going to that residential school was the best thing that ever happened to him, that it put him on a great path.
00:07:20.680
I'm not going to name him because I don't think he needs to be mobbed by angry white liberals.
00:07:24.880
But he is a very successful professional, and so is his son following in his footsteps.
00:07:30.600
I know of other people who feel this way, Indians.
00:07:34.040
I have no doubt that there were some atrocities committed in these residential schools, and I accept that it is morally ambiguous at best to take children away from their own parents.
00:07:44.680
I accept that it is difficult, but I cannot unremember what I heard from that man who said it surely saved his life and made his life.
00:07:55.240
But put that aside, for the purpose of this debate, let us accept that residential schools were on the whole wrong.
00:08:02.660
Many Aboriginals would dispute that, but let's accept it for the purpose of this discussion.
00:08:06.460
Why would you then build an entire state holiday around obsessing over that?
00:08:13.440
Is that the central characteristic about being Aboriginal in Canada?
00:08:16.840
Is that the central feature, the essential salient part?
00:08:23.820
Is that central to Aboriginal identity, really, in 2018, and for the foreseeable future, really?
00:08:31.320
Well, for the Indian industry it is, and by that I mean the grievance industry, the hucksters, the politicians, the lawyers, the bureaucrats, both white and Indian, who want to perpetuate failure.
00:08:41.700
It's like the Black Lives Matter extremists in the U.S., funded by George Soros, of course.
00:08:47.680
Black Lives Matter wants to make victimhood the central identity of black people, not opportunity and hope.
00:08:55.200
Why wouldn't you make Aboriginal culture, history, languages, traditions, and opportunities, why wouldn't you make that the focus of your Aboriginal day?
00:09:05.660
Well, because that doesn't feed anger, and that doesn't demand more cash, and that doesn't pit us against each other, does it?
00:09:13.960
By the way, there is goodwill in Canada towards Aboriginal people, but if someone is a new Canadian from China, from the Philippines, from wherever, who immigrated here in the past 20 years,
00:09:25.200
why do they need to be blamed and shamed for something that happened a century ago?
00:09:29.140
What about Canadians whose families have been here for decades, but who were born recently and had nothing to do with a policy of decades past?
00:09:40.000
And by the way, if an Aboriginal person was born after residential schools were abolished, or was born before then but never attended them,
00:09:53.780
Why should we cast any non-Aboriginal as an offender?
00:10:01.460
This is Trudeau hating Canada, undermining Canada, apologizing for Canada in perpetuity, but oh, he loves anything other than us.
00:10:10.620
Tear down John A. MacDonald, revise our history to lie, to pretend that we were genociders like Hitler was.
00:10:20.000
I'm excited to join the local community, my colleague Terry Duguid, the High Commissioner Janice Lukes and more,
00:10:28.420
in inaugurating a local park in Winnipeg, and naming it after the founder of Pakistan?
00:10:50.060
he's the brutal founder of pakistan he's obviously muslim but he's not just muslim he's a muslim
00:10:56.940
supremacist he founded pakistan on racist foundations he he fomented riots and murders
00:11:05.800
at least a million kids killed according to some reports pakistan today bears his imprint it's
00:11:13.340
intolerant it's racist it's islamic of course it's terroristic it's at war with its democratic
00:11:19.500
neighbor called india but that canadian liberal mp born in pakistan ikra khalid that's trudeau's
00:11:29.120
muslim mp who brought forward the m103 anti-islamophobia censorship motion and she's
00:11:34.800
erecting a statue to the mass murderer and islamic supremacist mohammed jinnah a foreigner who never
00:11:44.220
came to canada so john a mcdonald our national founder is out tear down a statue mohammed jinnah
00:11:54.640
a murderous founder of pakistan that goes up with our mp's praise but of course you don't understand
00:12:06.400
and now we will have a permanent holiday where self-loathing is taught and enforced
00:12:12.920
what did that liberal perry belgaard say oh so can canadians continually get it
00:12:20.460
yeah i don't think that serves canadians aboriginal or not do you stay with us for more
00:12:30.400
hey welcome back on monday we told you about a series of violent attacks over the weekend
00:12:51.120
committed against journalists now if you believe the cnn or cbc they'll tell you that donald trump
00:12:56.760
has whipped up people against the liberal press and it's a disgrace what trump has done no no no
00:13:01.900
i have not yet heard of a conservative ever attacking a journalist but i see every week
00:13:08.860
leftists attacking conservative journalists our own company has been victimized that way including
00:13:14.600
our own sheila gunreid who was punched in the face at a women's march well on uh this weekend in
00:13:20.300
toronto it was the toronto sun that was targeted and not even a writer or an opinion
00:13:26.600
columnist but rather a long-serving photographer for the toronto sun named stan b hall here take a
00:13:33.520
look at when he was just doing his job photographing some alt-left antifa types in toronto flanked by
00:13:40.340
seven police and he just got punched grabbed twice there he is that's stan in the blue and look at all
00:13:48.860
those policemen just standing there idly joining us now in studio is a woman who you may have seen in
00:13:53.820
the bottom right of the screen there who was standing there feet away my friend sue ann levy
00:13:56.940
sue ann great to see you again hi there were so many police there yes stand with dozens and dozens
00:14:03.500
yeah and and just feet away there were seven i counted them yeah what was it what was it like
00:14:09.840
what happened there actually the first time in my 30-year career ezra that i actually felt
00:14:14.540
intimidated i felt scared and you know i've been through a lot yeah and i am not afraid to throw
00:14:20.020
myself into things but not only did they attack stan but this group that whipped themselves into a
00:14:26.800
frenzy screamed all kinds of stuff about the sun that i was racist they had recognized me about a
00:14:33.340
half an hour into my arrival what are they talking wait so they got themselves all whipped up so this
00:14:38.340
was ideological this wasn't just some opportunistic stupidity this was targeted because of politics
00:14:44.860
no no no no about a half an hour in and stan and i are going around together we'd lose each other at
00:14:50.100
some points we were together and they reckon one guy recognized me and he started screaming and what
00:14:55.080
they do is when they recognize you they shout out they do a shout out to all their other and the rest
00:15:00.040
of the wolf pack comes yes and then i was stalked i was followed by three uh lefty lesbians um who
00:15:06.480
started screaming that i was disgraced to the lgbt community and i was intimidated and stalked by a
00:15:12.040
cameraman who was filming for them huh now now stan i don't know stan well i i know his name um he's
00:15:20.120
just a photographer i'm not saying just a photographer but he's not he's not writing yeah
00:15:24.480
he's apolitical he shoots uh interesting things and this was an interesting thing why did they why
00:15:29.660
did they target him i you know i don't know there was somebody else at the rally who was a shooting for
00:15:35.960
uh freelance yeah for the wires and she also was surrounded and intimidated and i i wrote about
00:15:41.920
it in my piece on sunday did the police intervene in any way did they even say simmer down no not at
00:15:47.840
all why do you can you explain that well i was told that they had been asked from higher ups we don't
00:15:54.060
know who to stand down not to uh intervene because it might escalate the violence but frankly
00:16:00.980
standing there and feeling totally unprotected totally unprotected i would say that all they
00:16:07.140
did was enable and embolden well and these people and they proved but let's watch it in slow motion
00:16:12.000
here because you know stan i mean he's he looks like he's in his 50s and they they grab his arm grab
00:16:17.300
his arm twice he's holding his expensive camera gear he's obviously not going to so they grab his arm
00:16:22.780
so look at that he's a young guy probably in his 20 grab stands arm grab stands arm wrestles him
00:16:27.960
around wrangles him and then just grabs his hat looks like he's pulling his hair also like that's
00:16:34.200
a real grab did and runs away and that's not just like a goofy little snatch a hat and run no juvenile
00:16:40.080
stunt that's a double grab immobilize the arm show one more time i think that's so reach for the hat
00:16:48.080
he blocks it so the youngster grabs the arm grabs the arm immobilizes the arm reaches over the other
00:16:55.640
hand grabs the head so much look at stan's face look at his face there it's obviously grimacing
00:17:01.240
is he grabbing the hair is he grabbing the skin he grabbed the hair the other arm is immobilized and
00:17:07.020
he grabs it and look at all the cops just delighted with a you see the guy there he was smiling yeah just
00:17:14.720
smiling oh that's that's a little bit of fun not doing a thing now we have a still image of the hat
00:17:20.240
grabber arm grabber assaulted let's put that up here for a second that's him smiling now why wouldn't
00:17:26.120
he smile and to the right of him is a long time marxist barry wiseletter who shows up at all these rallies
00:17:32.920
and and provokes the people whips up these young people so he also was there and he of course we've
00:17:40.140
heard nothing from him he should turn this guy in but of course he won't yeah well and we would encourage
00:17:44.960
any of our viewers if they recognize this fella or recognize him from social media to uh to bring
00:17:51.120
the information to the police would be the right people what's interesting is this was right there
00:17:55.760
at nathan phillips square this is right in the heart of the democratic process in toronto supposedly
00:18:00.980
um and uh obviously uh if you are on as you well know if you are on the right and conservative and
00:18:10.340
don't actually echo their view of the world then i mean i would be concerned that people are starting
00:18:16.260
to be targeted in the media well i mean on our side of the media i mean i've never heard in history
00:18:22.360
a cbc reporter being attacked in any way no because they're allies with the alt-left no and you know uh
00:18:29.260
the media most of the media all but a few media were silent have been silent well worse than sign i want
00:18:36.980
to show you now there's an obscure blog called canadaland and and its leaders jesse brownie
00:18:44.080
styles himself a media critic i want to show you what he wrote about this so so we've shown about
00:18:49.120
four times now uh stan raised his arm the the alt-left guy grabbed it pushed it down held it with one
00:18:57.640
arm and and then grabbed stan grimaced so that it was an assault i mean just speaking as a stand by the
00:19:05.800
way is 63 63 yeah he's not in his 50s we've been doing it a long time and he was slight he's slight
00:19:12.280
he's smaller than this guy so let's let me show you what jesse brown quote media critic of canadaland
00:19:17.900
said the appetite for crazy violent lefty stories is indeed huge it was the hat snatch hurt across the
00:19:25.000
nation well that was a crazy violent lefty we've seen crazy violent lefties everywhere and you can see
00:19:31.860
jesse brown who if this was i mean he goes nuts when there's a mean word on twitter jesse brown but
00:19:37.720
an actual violent assault that ended with a hat snatch but that started with a several uh grabs and
00:19:46.040
i don't know if you call it a punch he just diminishes it to call the hat snatch one more
00:19:50.300
uh tweet from jesse brown what about stan's hat no we we don't care about stan's hat although that is
00:19:57.840
theft we care about the fact that stan a 63 year old photographer in a public space surrounded by
00:20:03.900
police was grabbed and held at bay and his hair was then grabbed that was an assault and the police
00:20:11.200
did nothing and the so-called media critic cheered it yes and i dare say uh that many members of the
00:20:17.560
media party as you call them were probably secretly giving it their tacit approval there go the right
00:20:24.380
you know the right the conservative people who aren't part of the path yeah absolutely and i see
00:20:30.060
this sort of the harmonization on the hard left jesse brown and his obscure left-wing show called
00:20:36.240
canadaland there's a ndp-backed website called press progress they're really trying to whip up
00:20:42.500
violence against the toronto sun they are they are and we see that that there's a concerted campaign
00:20:48.760
like they're really naming names and trying to whip up hate against you joe warmington who else anthony fury
00:20:53.720
um up to a certain degree laurie goldstein but mostly anthony fury joe joe warmington and myself
00:21:00.780
and they also mentioned candace malcolm i know they hate her they hate conservative women the fact
00:21:05.900
that you're also jewish and lesbian they think well in three ways you're supposed to be liberal because
00:21:11.080
you're jewish because you're a woman because you're literally i'm a betrayal i'm a betrayal that's
00:21:14.740
why they hate you they hate you more than they hate a conservative man because they regard you as a
00:21:19.440
as a as a betrayer and they even said that they even said that well that's he said he's two other
00:21:24.500
left-wing lesbians said you're a betrayer of the of the sexuality or something yes well i i have to say
00:21:32.280
um i'm disappointed in the toronto police but i'm sure the order came from higher up i can't believe
00:21:37.200
that any young man or woman joins a police academy to be a partisan you know approver of violence like
00:21:43.720
that i can't believe that a real cop would feel good about that i can't either um i think that
00:21:49.360
they're they have been rendered in many ways impotent the police force i've written about this
00:21:54.240
before uh we are huge champions of the police we always more than anyone else you're the only
00:21:59.260
newspaper in toronto that is certainly did not deserve what happened you know what the toronto
00:22:03.680
star hates the police the cbc hates the police if they could get a black lives matter anti-cop thing
00:22:09.040
going in toronto they sort of do you want to talk about betrayal yeah that's a betrayal because we
00:22:13.560
certainly didn't deserve it ezra well i think of course the real blame lies with the perpetrator that
00:22:19.480
young man who was violent against a 63 year old 63 year old photographer let me ask you this and i'm
00:22:25.020
not asking you to give away any confidences or to put yourself in a difficult position but i remember
00:22:29.820
when our own sheila gunreed was punched in the face and we can show some imagery of this right now
00:22:34.360
sheila went to the women's march last year in edmonton at a women's march was punched in the
00:22:39.620
face by a new democrat activist and we sued we took him to criminal court we took him to civil court
00:22:46.060
it was a statement that you can't do that to someone at the rebel with impunity has it and if i'm asking
00:22:52.780
if i'm asking a question that's too tough let me know has the sun stood by you and stan behal is the sun
00:23:01.100
going to stand by its people it is it is and our lawyer has been contacted and we are you know sort
00:23:08.460
of vigorously pursuing charges um i am uh concerned about going to another rally like this because
00:23:15.660
uh as i stated to my you know bosses this is now becoming more and more as you said we have to hire
00:23:23.120
security yeah we we don't send sheila out without security now well i'm looking at that as well yeah i'm
00:23:28.100
looking at that frankly isn't it incredible and you know the rest of the media doesn't care or they're
00:23:32.800

00:23:48.040
you got to believe it we know this we know this the number of rebel personalities who have been
00:23:53.720
attacked or rebel alumni and they go after the women i find yes you know uh of course lauren southern
00:24:00.660

00:24:04.740

00:24:15.320
it wasn't it wasn't permissible and gavin would know i'm just joking um no it's it's impermissible but
00:24:21.380
it seems to be permitted all right stay with us more ahead on the rebel
00:24:24.860
welcome back well incredible conversation with sue ann wasn't it that a 63 year old photographer
00:24:41.380
for a daily newspaper no political ideology at all just assaulted mere feet away from seven officers and
00:24:48.260
they they couldn't care less because of course the alt-left antifa are given a pass not just
00:24:54.000
by the mainstream media but unfortunately by police too i'd like to show you a couple of images from the
00:25:00.180
united states over the weekend of course where they had racially charged protests 20 white racists
00:25:07.120
had a protest about 200 media covered it and about 2 000 alt-left protesters i want to show you when
00:25:14.500
two antifa style left-wing protesters accosted a journalist named dewan hargard from abc take a look at this
00:25:24.100
short video don't be shoving on people what's wrong with you yeah yeah and get that out of my face
00:25:29.780
they bleeped out the swear you can see they were physically pushing him a couple of white
00:25:48.140
antifa i don't have anything against whites but the whole point the narrative of this weekend's
00:25:53.720
coverage was it was whites being racist against blacks let me show you in addition to swearing at
00:25:58.740
and pushing dewan hoggard they cut the audio equipment rendering his camera less useful only images not
00:26:07.540
sound but take a close-up at dewan hoggard himself of course he's an african american journalist think
00:26:13.940
about that a black journalist goes to cover an event and two screaming profane white activists
00:26:21.460
physically push him around swear at him and cut his equipment but because they were left-wing
00:26:26.820
they got a pass that did not actually make it into abc's own main broadcast that night joining us
00:26:34.020
now from the united states via skype is our friend andrew clavin the host of the andrew clavin show
00:26:38.740
mondays and thursdays on the daily wire andrew if the shoe were on the other foot if those were white
00:26:46.020
nationalists white supremacists white racists doing that to a black reporter of abc i think it probably would
00:26:53.220
have led the news that's my hunch what do you think well we already know this to be true every time
00:26:58.740
uh a black guy is uh killed by police even if the police are black and even if the guy was committing
00:27:04.420
a crime at the time and threatening a policeman's life it's looked upon as a racial incident whereas
00:27:09.700
here we have uh my pal candace owens a an african american lady was chased out of a starbucks by screaming
00:27:17.860
white people shouting at her that she was a racist because she's a trump supporter uh we know we know
00:27:24.340
that on cnn uh chris cuomo and don lemon there is i call them dumb and dumber uh are on saying well it's
00:27:31.220
not the same thing when a leftist punches somebody that's different because he's anti-hate so that's
00:27:36.420
okay but you know then when it comes to the language that donald trump may use which i i actually don't
00:27:42.740
approve of but when he comes to that that is somehow more evil than the language that they've
00:27:48.260
that the left has been shouting at right-wingers for a long long time the problem with these double
00:27:52.820
standards is ultimately they just won't hold i mean ultimately people say hey wait a minute you know
00:27:58.100
if you're going to judge me by the color of my skin i'm going to judge you by the color of your skin
00:28:02.580
if you're going to say that punching me is okay i'm going to punch you back eventually you just bring
00:28:07.540
down the whole system and that is the problem the left is experiencing right now uh you know you talk
00:28:11.940
about the racial part of it i mean i'm sure you know the new york times has now a woman on its
00:28:16.340
editorial board who hates white men i do not see and then they explain that that's not really racism
00:28:21.860
because he's white i do not see how that kind of standard is going to hold at all well you know it's
00:28:27.380
not just that it's an obvious double standard and that it's the left not living up to its own
00:28:32.980
supposed ideals but i think when you attack americans for being white to use a word of the left you're
00:28:39.620
racializing them uh my point is i think most americans i mean i would certainly say this about
00:28:45.460
most canadians we don't think of ourselves as white or right-handed or in these boxes but if
00:28:53.140
white men are attacked as white men after a certain point in time they might say all right fine if you're
00:28:58.500
telling me that's how i'm valued and who i am and that's my tribe and i'm pushed out by the other
00:29:04.740
tribe fine and i think it's actually creating a racial consciousness and identity that is probably
00:29:11.700
unhealthy to begin with but obviously counterproductive uh i mean those those on the left are creating the
00:29:18.340
very racism they claim to oppose that's my thesis what do you think oh i think it's absolutely right
00:29:23.540
i mean the the 20 the 20 white uh identity people who showed up for this rally over the weekend
00:29:30.820
there were literally 20 of them that you know that's the danger they present to our country of
00:29:36.420
350 million people but even they were saying you know we don't want to be hateful we just want we
00:29:41.460
believe in white identity politics well i don't believe in identity politics for anybody i believe
00:29:46.500
identity politics is racism i believe intersectionality is racism and i think that if you're going to be
00:29:52.580
racist if you're going to condone racism and say yes you know we we are to be judged according to the
00:29:57.700
color of our skin you're absolutely right of course white people are going to start to do it too and
00:30:02.340
then you find out that you're outnumbered and it's not so much the game's not so much fun anymore
00:30:06.820
you know i believe as i have believed all my life in e pluribus unum out of the many we become one that
00:30:12.180
what links us together is our creed and it's as it's explained in the declaration that all men are
00:30:16.980
created equal those are the things that make us americans it's not the ground we stand on it's the
00:30:21.380
ideas that we not just hold in our minds but also inside ourselves in our hearts that we believe in
00:30:26.180
and that's what makes you an american you walk in the door and i'm meeting you for the first time
00:30:30.340
that that is what i'm going to judge you on whether you live up to those standards if you are going to
00:30:35.300
say to me that somebody held slaves 200 years ago or 150 years ago and he was the same color you are
00:30:42.100
and therefore you are guilty you lost me i mean then we're playing a totally different game i mean then
00:30:47.780
i feel justified in saying oh well i was mugged by a black guy and you're the same color as he is
00:30:52.340
so i'm going to hate on you you know and i just think that that is a path to foulness and stupidity
00:30:57.460
i mean that that's the way the world has been until the foundation of america that was the way the
00:31:01.620
world always was that's what we changed we were working on it we did it badly we did bad things
00:31:06.500
along the way because we're human beings but if we're not going to stick to those ideals if we're
00:31:10.180
going to abandon those ideals everybody's going to abandon it it's so interesting that you refer to
00:31:14.980
e pluribus unum just yesterday on my on my show i talked about how justin trudeau has the opposite
00:31:21.300
de facto motto he wants canada to adopt diversity is our strength which i i said is the opposite
00:31:26.820
of e pluribus unum from one we're going to split into many as opposed to the american idea of from
00:31:32.660
many we're going to band together into one and he wants to atomize us and i got to tell you in canada
00:31:38.580
that trudeau's just announced we're going to have a new statutory holiday a new national holiday
00:31:43.060
we don't have very many of those you know they're you know canada day it's our fourth of july we have
00:31:48.020
you know um very we have victoria day named after the queen that's our british tradition
00:31:52.980
he wants this is incredible let me bounce this off you because i'd love uh i'd love your assessment of
00:31:57.860
this i know you haven't heard this before because it's a very canadian story but i love your view
00:32:01.380
because you're really on this issue our new national statutory holiday so it's right up there with your
00:32:08.340
veterans day for example or thanksgiving is a day to remember the uh hard conditions the racist
00:32:19.540
conditions of residential schools that were set up for aboriginal first nations indian kids so indian
00:32:27.460
kids a hundred and odd years ago were taken from their families and put in these schools to teach them
00:32:33.220
english and other western white skills but it was done with a hue of racism and condescension so
00:32:41.300
those are gone those are all gone but there will be now a national holiday a shame day a scolding day
00:32:49.780
to commemorate that it would be as if america had a japanese internment remembrance day that's what it's
00:32:56.980
like that's my i'd love your take on it well it is like you know there's it's great you can have a
00:33:02.100
you know an aboriginal shame tree and sing aboriginal shame carols and it'll be a beautiful
00:33:06.740
thing you know to me the way that the left looks at certainly at my country and it sounds like they
00:33:12.580
look at your country as well i always compare it to saying i'm going to tell the history of your life
00:33:17.860
and i'm going to start with your porn searches i'm going to tell the history of martin luther king's
00:33:22.260
life and i'm going to start with his adultery i'm going to tell the story of john george washington's
00:33:26.100
life and start with his slavery we do that to anybody because we're all sinners you know we're all
00:33:30.660
all broken and every country has committed bad things what makes america great certainly is all
00:33:36.500
the wonderful things we've done that we've done uniquely that there is not a person walking around
00:33:42.180
on the planet who is politically free who doesn't owe at least a little debt to america you know that
00:33:48.100
is a beautiful thing that's what makes us different the stuff we do wrong is what makes us the same as
00:33:53.380
everybody else right because everybody has that and i you know i would like to see you know i i
00:33:59.140
simply don't see other countries that have had nowhere near the sterling history of freedom and
00:34:04.820
liberty and moving forward in equality uh of treatment that that we have i don't see those
00:34:10.340
other countries indulging in shame days they're desperately looking around for something to be
00:34:14.740
proud of we have so much to be proud of i think we should be celebrating that every day and i think
00:34:19.620
just just like listen this is true in my own life it's by celebrating the good things that i do that i
00:34:24.820
become better right by swallowing in guilt even though i know i do wrong things because i'm a
00:34:28.900
person if i wallowing in guilt i get mired in guilt i get mired in the past by looking forward and saying
00:34:34.660
hey that was a good thing do more of that stuff you know that's the way i go forward and that's the
00:34:38.420
way we should look at ourselves as countries you know i i've kept you for so long but i just want
00:34:42.260
to squeeze in one more question because i love your answers um i notice that you mentioned candace
00:34:48.580
owens a young black republican who was screamed at and driven from a restaurant by white leftists
00:34:54.660
and anytime there's a conservative woman michelle malkin sarah palin ivanka trump they're subjected to
00:35:00.980
so much uh sexist misogynistic abuse from the left and and just recently i think it was the new yorker
00:35:08.180
had this cartoonish um you know insinuation that donald trump was going on a gay date
00:35:16.100
with vladimir putin so they're using homosexuality as an insult and so i'm so i think okay you're
00:35:22.660
you're screaming epithets at a black woman you're screaming misogyny at conservative women in general
00:35:29.460
and you're using homosexuality as an insult in a way that i thought was was considered taboo
00:35:35.700
i wonder if the left actually even means it when they say they're pro-women pro-gay pro-black pro-minority
00:35:42.260
i wonder if they even just mean it or if it's just a a trick that happens to work on conservatives
00:35:46.580
so they pretend they mean it well you know here here's the way i feel about this in the same way
00:35:51.940
i i believe in jesus i don't care what church you go to as long as it leads to jesus that's what i
00:35:56.020
believe in you know and i i don't even care if you believe in a god who represents those values
00:36:00.500
i'm with you that's that's fine they're the same way they believe in socialist slavery they don't
00:36:04.580
believe in women they believe in socialist slavery they don't believe in blacks or gays it's just
00:36:09.060
the socialism they want to get to so if the path takes them through gay people that's great as long
00:36:14.180
as the gay people sign on the minute the gay guy says you know what i believe in freedom i want to
00:36:18.420
be free i want to be a capitalist and a free guy suddenly they start hurling slurs at him i mean
00:36:24.820
they they call black people uncle toms if they say you know what i'm going to think independently and
00:36:29.700
they that that to me is a racial slur to call somebody an uncle tom it also means they haven't read
00:36:34.100
the book because he's a great guy in the book but like you know they they will abandon you with
00:36:39.700
double rage they will come after you with double rage if you take one of their favored nations and
00:36:44.820
say you know what as a member of that favored nation i disagree with you because it's all about
00:36:49.380
getting to the socialism that's all it's always about and this and and really you can see you know
00:36:54.740
when they come to you and they say we want to be equal if we're gay people and you say okay now you're
00:37:00.340
equal and then they say good but you can no longer believe what you believe you know and then they
00:37:03.700
they turn it around what they want is the power all on their side so that they can establish
00:37:08.740
socialism it is all about and and what is socialism socialism is taking your labor taking your money
00:37:14.740
taking the things that you create and using them for your own purposes it's a power grab and it's all
00:37:19.780
about the power and the minute gay people and women wake up to that the minute they wake up to that
00:37:25.460
the left is finished and so that's why they punish those desertions uh even worse than they publish
00:37:31.700
they they punish the rest of us who just disagree with them on principle yeah what a great point well
00:37:35.940
andrew i tell you i could keep you all day it's so interesting but i know you have other things to do
00:37:39.780
including your daily show i want to encourage all our viewers if they're not already listen to it
00:37:44.100
that absolutely must it's the andrew claven show and that's every day monday to thursday am i right
00:37:49.220
that's it yep and that's at the dailywire.com lots of good talent over there and we're
00:37:53.380
always grateful for your time you you're so smart and i love your take on our canadian way of thinking
00:37:58.180
because uh boy we we got some troubles up here take care of my friend and keep in touch
00:38:02.660
it's great talking to you thanks a lot all right thank you there you have it andrew clavin
00:38:05.940
make sure to tune in to his show on the daily wire stay with us more ahead on the rebel
00:38:19.860
on my monologue yesterday about maxine bernier's response to trudeau's mantra of diversity is our
00:38:26.900
strength john writes i wrote in defending andrew sheer after one of your shows now i must say those
00:38:33.140
three little words i hate saying so much i was wrong mr sheer has turned out to be a dud he seems to be
00:38:38.740
scared of the media or anybody that wants to challenge him really and he lacks a spine his
00:38:43.220
support of the paris agreement seems hypocritical in light of his anti-carbon tax stance bernier seems to
00:38:48.740
actually have the chutzpah required to lead and would have clearly been the better choice i remember
00:38:52.740
you calling me optimistic in response well that's gone now well i uh look you gotta have hope right
00:39:00.900
i mean you gotta hope that he improves andrew sheer um i'd say there's a 50 50 chance that at the
00:39:07.380
conservative party convention next week that um the party will abandon its dairy cartel supply
00:39:14.660
management's approach approach it's just so out of sync with the entire party it was so obviously
00:39:21.140
a dirty deal cut by andrew sheer to get a few dairy farmer support um but i i just don't think that's
00:39:26.820
tenable when brian marooney himself from quebec is saying get out of the dairy cartels i think andrew
00:39:31.460
sheer will have to um maybe i'm wrong i think that andrew sheer is so malleable he may see where the
00:39:40.100
party's going and say oh i better get ahead of them and not be trampled by them on the other hand
00:39:45.220
he is timid and he's bossed around by the media i don't know i i hope he grows a backbone because
00:39:52.260
by god we need someone to stop justin trudeau and obviously if we don't want jagmeet singh who's
00:39:59.700
awful and is going to be crushed by the way it's got to be andrew sheer wonder rights whether sheer is
00:40:08.100
a shrinking violet or just shrewdly letting max do the spade work for a more aggressive election
00:40:13.460
campaign i hope that max's strong leadership abilities and clarity of vision play a central
00:40:17.460
role in the defeat of traitor trudeau next year well we'll see i mean i see that maxime bernier
00:40:23.300
has more tweets and i see official letters from the liberals and the liberal media party
00:40:29.220
to andrew sheer demanding that they fire maxime bernier so i don't think that this is part of a
00:40:34.820
strategy of a good cop bad cop between sheer and maxime i just don't i just don't think it's that
00:40:39.620
i think it's what it looks like i think maxime bernier is feeling unfettered because he's not in
00:40:44.740
cabinet anymore so he's speaking out and i think andrew sheer is hiding under the hiding under his bed
00:40:50.820
on my interview with aaron gunn from bc proud about the removal of the statue of sir john mcdonald in
00:40:55.540
victoria janey writes maybe they should start tearing down the parliament buildings because that's where
00:41:01.140
all this fuss started in the first place well don't give him any ideas so many things in our
00:41:07.060
country would have to be knocked down if we want to make the perfect the enemy of the good i was
00:41:13.060
only half joking when i said victoria the name of the city named after the queen british columbia
00:41:17.860
named after the brits and columbus two things that the left hates um just about everything would
00:41:24.020
be destroyed and that's really what the left likes to do they like to raise things down to zero i think
00:41:30.100
i told you the other day that mao zedong had this vision of raising everything to the ground and
00:41:35.940
literally giving people numbers instead of names destroying anything from the past um i mean we know
00:41:43.380
that the khmer rouge would were so anti-ideas anti-intellectual anti-learning anti-culture that
00:41:49.380
they murdered anyone with glasses the theory went if you had glasses then you knew how to read books
00:41:54.020
which meant you were obviously part of the old guard that's obviously the most extreme form of
00:42:00.020
marxist revisionism but um yeah tearing down the statue of john a mcdonald i think that's pretty
00:42:07.380
far down the road wouldn't you think oh my god and putting up a statue of jenna unbelievable folks
00:42:13.940
that's our show for today on behalf of all of us here at rebel world headquarters to you at home
