Hello, my friends. Today, I'll take you to Hamilton, Ontario, or nearby Brantford,
00:00:07.200
where there's a billboard saying Trudeau for Traitor, or Trudeau for Treason, sorry.
00:00:14.320
What do you make of that? I'll give you my thoughts on that, and I'll show you the billboard.
00:00:19.660

We don't take any money from Trudeau. That's why. Okay, here's the podcast.
00:01:20.020
Tonight, on the eve of Canadian election, what are the rules for calling your opponents Nazis?
00:01:27.020
It's January 13th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:31.840
Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:35.520
There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:39.600
The only thing I have to say to the government about why I publish it is because it's my bloody
00:01:45.460
Hey, look at this in the Hamilton Spectator newspaper. The story is a Brantford police
00:01:57.400
investigating billboard showing Justin Trudeau in Nazi uniform, and you can see a picture of
00:02:03.260
the billboard. Now, before you jump to conclusions, no, they're not investigating whether or not
00:02:08.240
Justin Trudeau actually wore a Nazi uniform, but that's not such an outlandish thought if
00:02:12.700
you were thinking it. As you know, Justin Trudeau dressed up in blackface, which is widely regarded
00:02:18.360
as racist. He dressed up in blackface more times than he can even remember. In three decades of
00:02:25.760
his life, teens, 20s, and 30s, he dressed in blackface. He had sort of a kit that he'd keep
00:02:32.380
in like a trunk or like a drawer with other costumes. So reading that headline, you could
00:02:36.960
be forgiven for thinking that Trudeau put on a Nazi uniform, and it wasn't Halloween time.
00:02:42.820
Here is Trudeau wearing a military uniform. He was acting in this case, so he says. Here he is in
00:02:48.980
India, dressing like he's in some Bollywood movie. But again, ironically, he says he wasn't acting in
00:02:55.620
this case. So it's tough to keep up with all of his different acts and costumes, isn't it? But here's
00:03:01.980
what the story says. Brantford police are investigating after a billboard showing Prime
00:03:07.340
Minister Justin Trudeau in a Nazi uniform next to Adolf Hitler was erected in the city's downtown.
00:03:14.040
The offensive billboard, seen on the side of a trailer pulled by a pickup truck at the intersection
00:03:18.480
of Colborne and Alfred Streets, has since been taken down, police said. It is unclear when the
00:03:25.120
billboard was first erected. Okay, so why is this being investigated by police? I mean, I don't like the
00:03:31.780
billboard. I don't like to see Nazi uniforms or Soviet uniforms, or since we're talking about it,
00:03:37.860
the uniforms of the Chinese Communist Party or their People's Liberation Army, who have trained
00:03:44.040
with our Canadian Armed Forces twice, including at CFP Petawawa. I wonder if we could get the police
00:03:51.300
to investigate people in People's Liberation Army uniforms having free reign in Canada. Can we get
00:03:57.080
the cops on that? So I accept the spectator's view that this was offensive, but can you please explain
00:04:03.020
what are the police investigating? What's the crime? Maybe it's in bad taste, all right? Some would say
00:04:11.660
that comparing Trudeau to Hitler diminishes what Hitler did. It trivializes Hitler's crimes. Trudeau is
00:04:17.960
an idiot and a corrupt librano and a grifter and a socialist, but he's not a murderer. He hasn't set
00:04:23.640
up death camps, so comparing Trudeau to a Nazi is offensive. It trivialized the Holocaust. I would
00:04:30.500
take that point of view, but can you tell me where the crime is? Let me read some more. Issues such as
00:04:37.580
this are concerning due to their offensive and divisive nature, said police spokesperson Robin
00:04:44.640
Matthews Osmond. All right, I've already agreed that it's offensive, and I agree that it's divisive,
00:04:50.480
but that's politics. That's campaigns. That's elections. That's a good thing. That's how
00:04:55.860
parliament works. In fact, votes in parliaments and legislatures are often described as calling
00:05:01.280
for a division. I call for the division, as in people dividing yes or no. Offensive and divisive
00:05:08.580
things are not illegal. In fact, they are legal. They are actually protected in our charter of rights
00:05:14.940
under freedom of expression and belief and all sorts of other fundamental freedoms. Those are real rights.
00:05:19.960
The right not to be offended is a counterfeit human right. It's not real. Show it to me in
00:05:25.880
the criminal code. Let me read some more. The sign depicted Trudeau performing a Nazi salute alongside
00:05:31.300
the message, Trudeau for treason. Now, I don't like that kind of language because it criminalizes
00:05:37.120
political differences of opinion. I don't think Trudeau has committed treason. Treason is a real thing.
00:05:42.600
I think Omar Khadr has committed treason by taking up arms against our soldiers or our allies in a war.
00:05:49.960
By killing one of them, Sergeant Christopher Speer, that's pretty much on the nose treason,
00:05:55.540
even though he hasn't been charged with it for some reason. But Trudeau has not done that. Like
00:05:59.680
I say, Trudeau's an idiot. We all know that. He's a socialist. He's a drug addict. He's a sexual
00:06:04.300
harasser. We know all these things. We know he hates our military. We know he's undoing our country in
00:06:10.780
many ways. But that is not treason, if that word has its proper meaning. I guess it's like the word
00:06:16.880
fraud. It actually has a sharp meaning, bank fraud, insurance fraud. You could say someone's a fraud
00:06:23.200
as in they're a fake. They're not what they claim to be. But you want to be careful that you don't use
00:06:28.940
it in the sharpest meaning lightly. It goes all the more so for treason. I don't think Trudeau is a
00:06:33.500
treasonous traitor. And I warn anyone who uses that language, I say, be careful what you wish for.
00:06:40.640
Because if a difference of opinion can be considered a crime or treason, who do you think is going to be
00:06:47.220
the first to be arrested? The first up against the wall? Conservatives, of course. Look at the witch
00:06:53.220
hunt in the United States right now, the cancel culture down there that's out of control.
00:06:56.980
You won't be arresting Trudeau for treason. He'll be arresting you for treason if treason is stretched
00:07:04.160
beyond its proper meaning to include mere political disagreements. Trudeau is many terrible things.
00:07:10.400
But he's not a Nazi and he has not committed treason. And he will not be arrested for those
00:07:15.240
things. I wish the police would investigate him for his role in the SNC-Lavalin corruption scandal.
00:07:22.300
I actually think there's a prima facie case of a crime there. And I'm not alone. A half dozen
00:07:29.700
former attorneys general have asked for an RCMP investigation. But the Nazi attack is not wise.
00:07:35.000
So there I am defending Trudeau against being called a Nazi. But hang on, hang on, hang on. Remember this?
00:07:42.660
Isn't calling people Nazis what the liberals do? I mean, they call me a Nazi and I'm Jewish for heaven's
00:07:48.540
sake. What does Trudeau's own inner circle do? They've spent the week calling, you know, it's a
00:07:56.040
coordinated attack on anyone they don't like, calling them Nazis, racist. They just did it. They
00:08:02.640
just did. They still are doing it. They're going to do a lot more of it in the run-up to the campaign.
00:08:10.800
So put that story up there just again for a second. So let me get this straight. If you call Justin
00:08:17.140
Trudeau a Nazi, the police will investigate you for being offensive. But if Trudeau calls you a Nazi,
00:08:23.820
that's just campaigning. It really is January 13th, 1984, isn't it? Stay with us for more.
00:08:32.320
Welcome back. I want to give you a bit of an update on our very important civil liberties project
00:08:48.540
started in Canada called fightthefines.com. And it's been so popular. And that's a very,
00:08:56.180
that's the wrong way to put it because it's now, woo, fight the fines. No, it's a terrible thing
00:09:00.300
that we're trying to fix. We're trying to fix these abusive, unreasonable lockdown fines.
00:09:05.760
But there's such a demand for it. Let me phrase it that way, that we've expanded the project to
00:09:10.560
Australia and the United Kingdom too. But Canada remains the country most close to our hearts as
00:09:15.760
we are Canadian and we're headquartered here. And I should tell you that we're probably taking about
00:09:20.560
five new cases a day. In fact, we've hired a full-time professional legal paralegal arranger
00:09:29.540
just to track all the paper, just to catch up. Imagine, yeah, I think we're probably close to 500
00:09:35.680
cases between the three jurisdictions. So it's, it really is the size of a law firm and it's increasingly
00:09:42.380
important work. And the chief fighter of fines and fighter of lockdowns on our team is my friend
00:09:51.160
Sheila Gunn-Reed, who's also our chief reporter. She's also done the most widely viewed video in our
00:09:59.500
Fight the Fines campaign, namely that of a fellow in Hampton, New Brunswick, who, Walter is his name,
00:10:09.000
who simply went through a drive-thru, sat in the parking lot with his coffee and a local cop gave him a
00:10:14.760
$292 fine for that. That case went super viral and was our first, one of our first victories as well
00:10:22.620
when the police simply dropped the case rather than have the embarrassment of taking that to trial. We've had
00:10:29.100
about half a dozen such victories before even going to court, but we have so many cases and I want to bring
00:10:34.540
Sheila in right now via Skype from her base in Edmonton. Sheila, thank you so much for taking
00:10:42.680
these cases, not just in Alberta, but you've been taking them in other provinces too, Saskatchewan,
00:10:48.620
Manitoba, our friend Walter Matheson in New Brunswick even. You're doing a great job. Thank you.
00:10:55.240
Well, I think it's so important that we fight for the normal people that are out there because these,
00:11:02.900
these are not always all that high profile and they're not always that outrageous. But for me,
00:11:09.980
what's outrageous is that these are normal people just doing completely normal things that were
00:11:15.800
completely legal 10 short months ago. I mean, I'm dealing with fines for people who celebrated a
00:11:23.740
socially distant 18th birthday in a machine shop. So far apart from everybody, I'm dealing with tickets
00:11:30.420
from that. I've got tickets for people who were singing in a public park after Manitoba Premier
00:11:38.000
Brian Pallister closed the churches there. I'm dealing with tickets for a guy who just bought
00:11:43.900
groceries without a mask on and then the grocery store used his loyalty card to match it up to the
00:11:49.820
surveillance footage to send the cops to his house and give him a $300 ticket. I've got elderly
00:11:56.640
couples who are going to the grocery store to buy medication for the very thing that makes the wife
00:12:02.920
mask exempt and the whole affair ends in handcuffs. I've even got a car of young people. I say young
00:12:12.780
people because they're probably half my age from Winkler, Manitoba, which I think is one of these,
00:12:18.140
like the toughest lockdown jurisdictions in the entire country. The amount of fines coming from Winkler
00:12:23.620
per capita has to be the highest in the entire country. A car full of young people get pulled
00:12:31.120
over, not because they were breaking any traffic violations, but because the police in town are now
00:12:39.680
stopping cars to check. It's, I guess, sort of like a drunk driving check stop, but now they're
00:12:49.760
checking to see if everybody in the car has the same address and if they don't, $1,200 fines. It's
00:12:56.960
crazy, Ezra. That is crazy. That's sort of like a Checkpoint Charlie in East Berlin kind of thing.
00:13:03.900
You know, I remember when I first started seeing those check stops on the roads in the state of
00:13:09.380
Victoria, Australia that Avi Yamini talked about and that tells me that one of the advantages we have
00:13:16.560
by having a reporter in the UK and having a reporter in Australia is we can see the tactics that are
00:13:23.120
next because I think we're in some sort of awful arms race. Politicians look around and say, oh,
00:13:29.100
look what they did in the state of Victoria, Australia. Look what they did in New South Wales. Look
00:13:33.660
what they did in, you know, London. Look what they did. So every poll just happened in Canada. Quebec was the
00:13:41.460
first jurisdiction to bring in a curfew. So now Ontario, well, we have to keep up with the Joneses.
00:13:48.340
So now they're bringing in a form of curfew here. So I think that the fact that our Fight Defines
00:13:53.960
project is not just Canada-wide, but also in the UK and Australia has given us a sense of how bad
00:14:00.380
things could go. In Australia, they actually had soldiers in camouflage and helmets manning checkpoints
00:14:09.240
and just awful cases there. You've got with you a few videos. I want to just go through some of them.
00:14:17.540
The first is actually, if I'm not mistaken, the niece of former Alberta Premier Ralph Klein. Is that
00:14:23.720
right? Give us one minute and then we'll throw to the clip. Sure. So in Innisfail, Alberta, which again,
00:14:30.280
it's a very rebel place. They are fighting the good fight for freedom out there. In Innisfail,
00:14:35.660
Alberta, there's a little local barbershop and it has decided fines be damned. Survival's more
00:14:42.740
important. Freedom's more important. We're opening the doors. And so the community has rallied around
00:14:49.000
this little barbershop. And as it turns out, this barbershop is owned and operated by former Premier
00:14:56.960
of Alberta, someone of whom I'm a great big fan, Ralph Klein's niece. So I headed out to Innisfail
00:15:05.480
yesterday morning because I wanted to be there to see this little barbershop defy the law. And I
00:15:13.740
wanted to see what happened next. All right, take a look. So Natalie, why are you making this stand today?
00:15:20.280
Well, I've decided to make this stand for all small businesses in Alberta. The government
00:15:28.020
has responded to all of us saying, I know this is hard. We understand. They don't understand until
00:15:37.640
they have to take their families to the food bank to get food. They don't understand what it's like
00:15:44.940
to own a business that you can't have any customers in. It's devastating. And I decided to make a stand
00:15:56.240
because my uncle, former Premier of Alberta, Ralph Klein, would have wanted me to do this.
00:16:05.580
He was a man for the people. And somebody has to stand up and say, no, this isn't right anymore.
00:16:13.360
How can Kenny take a whack-a-mole approach to which businesses get to stay open and which don't?
00:16:22.620
And it's always the big moneymaker box stores that get to stay open. So at this point, we all have to
00:16:30.940
come together and send a message to our government saying enough is enough. There's been no support.
00:16:37.140
There's been no government grants issued. I'm still waiting. So at this point, it's a do or die.
00:16:49.100
There hasn't been one known transmission of COVID in this industry. So it makes no sense to me
00:16:57.900
why we're shut down when we can have a client in and out in 15 minutes in my specific barbershop.
00:17:06.560
It's a very quick service. And if you can go get your dog's hair cut, I'm pretty sure you can come
00:17:14.560
in here for 15 minutes and get your kid's hair cut or yourself a haircut.
00:17:18.540
Now, your salon is spotless. And you rightly point out that there have been no instances of
00:17:26.880
transmission associated to your industry. I see that you have signs saying that you will ask if
00:17:34.580
your customers would like to wear masks. So you're not against any of the measures taken to stop the
00:17:42.980
spread of the coronavirus. No, exactly. I do believe it's a real virus. My dad, for instance,
00:17:50.920
former superintendent of BC ambulance and historian caught COVID-19 before Christmas.
00:18:00.200
He has since recovered. And he fully supports this decision. He thinks that this needs to change.
00:18:10.520
Open all non-essential businesses or close everything. Don't like who is picking and choosing.
00:18:20.620
And it's not right. I think we're all misinformed of these numbers. And I've had a lot of people come
00:18:30.140
and message me on Facebook saying, you know, what if we open and cause a spread? I don't think so.
00:18:39.100
In the height of the numbers being as high as they were back in September, there was still not one known
00:18:46.340
transmission case in this industry. So for those people to come to me and say that,
00:18:55.960
All right. Well, Sheila, thank you for doing that and going out there in person.
00:18:58.800
I want to say that not only do I think that these people feel relieved that they have some financial
00:19:07.500
help to fight the fine so they don't have to worry about, oh my God, I got to pay the fine or I got to
00:19:13.140
pay a lawyer. I think that just having someone sane to talk to also counts. I think that knowing
00:19:21.360
they're not mad, you know, I think it was Freud, who I don't often quote, he said that even if the
00:19:28.720
entire world says you're wrong, you can know that you're right. That's a very hard thing to do, though.
00:19:35.020
It's very, very hard. And if we're surrounded by compliant people, submissive people, obedient people,
00:19:41.000
people who are scolding and snitching and informing, just to know that you can still be right,
00:19:46.440
I'm sure that is a great mental relief to the people you talk to.
00:19:53.040
Well, some of our I will open cases, that's at I will open.com. That's our special portal for
00:20:00.060
businesses who are willing to defy the lockdown measures. And we like to come by and showcase and
00:20:06.740
tell everybody about this freedom minded company that's going to open. But some of our I will open
00:20:12.340
cases are sort of forming a little community around each other. So Tracy Walker is was a hairdresser
00:20:19.480
that we featured through I will open.com in Red Deer. And she drove out yesterday morning,
00:20:28.660
predawn hours to support Natalie Klein, Ralph Klein's niece who owns the barbershop. And you know,
00:20:35.160
we're we're finding the that they're starting to network with each other. And they're seeing the
00:20:40.660
immediate impacts of telling their story to us. So Tracy Walker, she she was in foreclosure. Now
00:20:48.840
she's out of foreclosure. She's busy. And she's able to now patronize some of the other I will open
00:20:55.560
businesses. It's fantastic. The what's sparking around these stories. You know, I did not know that
00:21:01.620
that is a positive, unintended consequence, a secondary effect that I didn't even think of.
00:21:07.780
That's wonderful. Here, let's play one more clip of you mentioned the fella who who was shopping
00:21:16.420
without a mask. And by the way, there are mask exemption in every single jurisdiction in this
00:21:20.340
country. I know that because I am the publisher of maskexemption.ca. And we'll have to make sure
00:21:25.980
that's up to date because the law has changed every now and then. But I'm pretty much every
00:21:30.480
district jurisdiction has some sort of an exemption. I find that most shopkeepers don't know that.
00:21:39.120
But if you're calm and happy and tell them that they back off. But here's a crazy case of,
00:21:45.000
you know, almost like facial recognition software, China style to the police to go track a guy down.
00:21:52.240
Phil, what were you doing when you got the ticket?
00:21:57.940
And so what were the circumstances around around getting groceries?
00:22:02.380
There was nothing special going on. I think, Janice, my wife, called me and said,
00:22:08.380
hey, can you pick up something on your way through town? I was like, sure, I'll pop in.
00:22:12.620
Um, so we, we've had numerous discussions with the management at our local co-op and talking about
00:22:21.920
mask exemptions and all of this type of stuff. And he, he was good with it. He said, yeah, I mean,
00:22:29.180
you gotta, you gotta shop for your family food. I mean, this is necessities. And so, yeah, we,
00:22:34.540
we ended up, uh, I popped in and I'm assuming somebody called it in, whether it was from,
00:22:42.620
um, uh, store management staff or the bystanders. Cause I mean, you walk, you walk through a store
00:22:50.280
nowadays without a mask on and you definitely get some interesting looks. And so, um, yeah. And so
00:22:56.620
then I, I was on camera and so that's, that was kind of interesting. And I guess the, the store decided
00:23:05.480
to help out when the cop showed up after I'd already left. And so they,
00:23:11.760
they pulled surveillance footage of you, like you were a shoplifter or a common criminal
00:23:19.000
and gave it to the police. And then I guess, so the police came to your house after the fact
00:23:24.480
and ticketed you. Yep. So then, uh, it was, it was 10 o'clock on the 27th of November and, uh,
00:23:32.540
we were, we were just, uh, finishing up reading Bible and just about to put the kids in, in bed.
00:23:38.100
And so we, uh, yeah, saw these two cop cars come. I, I, I, I say whipping onto the yard because I mean,
00:23:47.020
our yard, we've got cats and different things were an acreage. And so then, uh, yeah, they came,
00:23:52.060
they came up to the door and knocked and I even, I even went and I was like, Oh, I don't know if I feel
00:23:58.040
comfortable answering the door, you know, with all the stuff going on. And they looked at me or
00:24:02.840
looked at me through the door and was like, you just want to chat, you know, it's, it's okay.
00:24:08.640
And, uh, and so I, whatever, I put my slippers on and my sweater and I went and took a, a very timid
00:24:14.860
position down the steps from them, sat there and discussed, uh, you know, this mask violation.
00:24:20.940
Um, and they were like, Oh, you've been in the store twice. And so I'm assuming, I don't know if
00:24:25.520
you're familiar with the co-op grocery stores and different things, but they have a number that
00:24:29.640
they issue you. Right. And so these, this number, I'm assuming they pulled it just to see, you know,
00:24:36.780
Oh yeah, he was in earlier and that was still code red. And so then they felt, you know, two violations
00:24:42.560
must've been enough to, to warrant coming out and visiting me. And so. I was wondering how they knew
00:24:49.780
it was you and how they knew it was you twice and it was your co-op number. Wow. So what was the
00:24:57.820
amount of your ticket? Uh, it's, uh, it's $298 even. And so, yeah, it, which again, isn't the money.
00:25:07.540
Isn't the biggest issue is, you know, uh, I know people that don't, don't do anything. They're just
00:25:14.360
completely confined to their houses because of this. And I was like, I, I mean, I work construction.
00:25:20.000
I, I'm always out and about doing things. And sometimes you just can't comply to the nth degree.
00:25:25.700
And so I was like, yeah, we'll, we'll just keep, keep talking to our local, uh, management. And,
00:25:32.680
and as long as they're okay with everything, then, you know, just continue on. And so I guess,
00:25:37.800
I guess at this point, whoever was running the camera, they, uh, they decided to help the police out.
00:25:43.580
But I don't know if there was a warrant involved or, you know, different things of that nature.
00:25:48.400
Sheila, that's the thing. I think that, um, we're in a surveillance state. Really,
00:25:53.880
we have been for years. Cell phones in our pockets now makes us trackable, listenable.
00:25:59.260
Everything we say on the phone, everything we write, everywhere we go, it's trackable.
00:26:05.120
This was sort of an, this was an invasion of our privacy when the only downside was, well,
00:26:10.000
commercial. Now the companies, you know, sell us ads because they were listening in or watching our
00:26:16.660
emails. But it's absolutely sinister when the state, when police start accessing that private data about
00:26:25.920
you. And in this case, identifying your face, I'm really worried that we have the infrastructure in
00:26:32.580
place for a police state that the Soviet KGB or the, uh, Nazi, uh, Gestapo or the East German Stasi
00:26:41.660
could have only dreamed about. The technology has made the police state almost turnkey.
00:26:48.660
Well, and what did Phil actually do wrong there? What did he actually do wrong? Who did he harm?
00:26:57.540
He bought groceries and then went home. He paid for his groceries. Why did the local grocery store
00:27:05.540
have to step in and turn over his private information to the police? He didn't steal anything from them.
00:27:11.860
He didn't really do anything wrong. There was no harm done to the grocery store, except he didn't wear a
00:27:18.240
mask and he doesn't have to, he's medically exempt and it's none of the grocery stores business. And
00:27:23.680
you know, when we are signing up for these loyalty cards, like Phil did many, many years ago,
00:27:30.200
did we ever imagine that it could be used against us to enforce a ridiculous health code violation
00:27:37.760
that has never gone before a legislature. It's through the stroke of a pen of an unelected
00:27:44.020
health bureaucrat. That's the tyranny of all of this. Yeah. Loyalty card. What a laugh. Uh,
00:27:49.560
yeah, they certainly weren't loyal to him. Well, uh, listen, congratulations. You are leading the
00:27:55.680
charge. You have taken more fight the fines cases than anyone. Although I must give credit to our
00:28:01.620
Australian team, which has taken a great number of them on mass. They were all given a huge
00:28:07.720
ticket for being part of a political protest. So we're doing a massive constitutional challenge,
00:28:13.780
which, which encompasses a great number. But in terms of individual cases, Sheila,
00:28:18.700
you have more cases than anyone else on our team. I thank you for that. And speaking of
00:28:23.680
constitutional challenges, just before I hopped on the Skype call with you here, I was talking with
00:28:29.500
our lawyers, finalizing the documents. We are imminently, and I know I've been saying this for
00:28:35.900
weeks now, but we really are imminently going to file a constitutional challenge in one of Canada's
00:28:41.160
provinces. And by imminently, I mean for sure by this time next week. So we will be doing
00:28:47.100
constitutional challenges in Canada too. Sheila, keep up the great work. I know you've got a show
00:28:51.500
tonight at 9 p.m. Eastern, the gun show. Uh, give us 10 seconds on that.
00:28:56.400
Well, you may know Glenn Carrot from United We Roll. We know him as an advocate for the oil and gas
00:29:03.740
industry. He's also an advocate for his town because he is, well, until a couple of days ago,
00:29:12.380
a town councillor in Innisfail, Alberta. But he has resigned in protest because he has stood in
00:29:19.420
solidarity with local businesses who are defying the lockdown order. So I've got an exclusive interview
00:29:25.100
with him, um, right after his resignation. And I guess, as he kicks off his campaign for mayor there.
00:29:32.900
Well, that's amazing. We'll probably want to unlock that one from behind the paywall
00:29:37.020
and put it out there. I know Glenn from his great work, uh, and we've documented a lot of it. I
00:29:43.260
certainly hope he wins and replaces that outrageous town council in Innisfail. I know Innisfail fairly well.
00:29:49.820
It's one of the strongest places for rebel viewers in the country.
00:29:52.520
And I know that he has the spirit of that place and I hope he does well. Great to see you, Sheila.
00:29:57.720
You've got a lot of good spirit too. Well, thanks boss. Uh, we've got a big fight ahead of us for
00:30:02.080
civil liberties, but we've got great supporters who are helping us along at fightthefines.com.
00:30:07.440
All right. Well, thank you for doing the heavy duty work. Stay with us folks.
00:30:25.360
it's unfortunate in that there's really no good choices when voting, not voting conservative means
00:30:30.100
your vote is rendered into another division while the liberals benefit. The PPC at least is led by
00:30:35.040
a man who was so fed up with the conservative party that he quit it. He was pressing to do so. And I am
00:30:40.000
feeling the same way. I'll tell you who I'm going to vote for in the next election.
00:30:45.380
Aaron O'Toole's candidate. Do I like Aaron O'Toole? I don't know. I think he showed some weakness this
00:30:50.940
week. Do I know who the candidate is in my neighborhood? No. Doesn't matter. No. Uh, but
00:30:56.180
look, Justin Trudeau's awful and he needs to be stopped, but I am not such a partisan hack that I'm
00:31:03.120
going to say, Hey, Aaron O'Toole, great tactic there, both in terms of principle and pragmatism to
00:31:11.320
disavow the rebel that just gave you a great interview and we published it verbatim. You didn't
00:31:20.220
even explain what you're doing other than the obvious. You just, you know, fall like a cheap
00:31:25.840
suit at the first puff of opposition. You're not going to survive an election campaign if you're
00:31:29.900
that way. I want to tell him that now so maybe he can find a backbone somewhere. I really thought
00:31:35.420
as a military man he'd be tougher. Suzanne writes, You are so right, Ezra. How can we mobilize to remove
00:31:41.880
Trudeau, Freeland, Tam, etc.? Well, look, I know my job is to do journalism, opinion journalism,
00:31:48.240
journalism, reporting journalism, and activism in the case of our civil liberties work. That's what
00:31:52.540
I'm doing. Lydia writes, You mentioned the deaths of COVID. Deaths should have stopped accumulating in
00:31:58.580
April or sooner. We've been in a new flu season for a few months now. So I will argue, no, it's not
00:32:04.360
two times more than the typical flu season. The 17,000 that was mentioned would be combining two
00:32:10.300
flu seasons. Yes, a very good point. That's a good point. The flu season is the wintertime. Thank you
00:32:17.200
for that. You know, there's a lot of statistics and games with statistics. As I pointed out,
00:32:21.340
there's no flu anymore. It's all being called COVID. I think this whole thing is being hyped up.
00:32:26.820
The thing is, if you say that on YouTube, they'll ban your account. Can you believe that?
00:32:31.800
That's the show for today. Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World
00:32:35.400
Headquarters, to you at home, good night and keep fighting for freedom.
