Transcript

00:00:00.680 You're listening to a Rebel Media Podcast.
00:00:03.920 Hello, my Rebels. Today I have a special message.
00:00:06.560 I've released this in a number of platforms,
00:00:08.600 so I think the podcast is also a good place to do it.
00:00:11.600 As you may know, we have been suspended from YouTube for a week,
00:00:15.180 so we're back on there.
00:00:17.020 And I'm not so thirsty that I'm rushing in,
00:00:19.880 and oh, thank you, thank you, YouTube.
00:00:22.060 In fact, I sort of have a stern welcome back message
00:00:25.140 that I deliver on YouTube,
00:00:26.660 and I want to put it in my podcast today,
00:00:28.920 so give a listen to that.
00:00:31.000 By the way, it's a good way to stay in touch with us
00:00:33.180 to become a subscriber to Rebel News Plus.
00:00:36.240 That way no one can cut you off from us
00:00:38.140 like YouTube is trying to do
00:00:39.380 to come between us and our 1.45 million subscribers.
00:00:43.360 If you go to rebelnews.com and click subscribe,
00:00:45.660 it's eight bucks a month.
00:00:46.440 You get the video version of this podcast.
00:00:48.840 And I think it's also important,
00:00:50.900 we know who you are.
00:00:52.200 That way you can't be cut off from us
00:00:54.420 because some Silicon Valley tech giant wants it that way.
00:00:57.820 All right, here's today's show.
00:00:59.660 Tonight, YouTube's suspension of us is over.
00:01:03.120 For now, I'll tell you what we're going to do about it.
00:01:05.880 It's April 22nd, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:08.600 Why should others go to jail
00:01:12.420 when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:14.600 There's 8,500 customers here,
00:01:16.900 and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:18.660 The only thing I have to say to the government
00:01:20.620 about why I publish it
00:01:22.240 is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:01:24.540 YouTube suspended our channel for a week.
00:01:33.340 That week is now over,
00:01:35.140 and I'd like to tell you what happened
00:01:36.500 since YouTube wouldn't let us communicate with you until now.
00:01:40.320 They cut us off from everyone,
00:01:42.560 including our 1.45 million channel subscribers
00:01:45.560 who signed up to hear from us.
00:01:48.120 YouTube didn't just block us from speaking.
00:01:50.220 They blocked our 1.45 million friends from watching.
00:01:54.440 They punished you, not just us.
00:01:57.420 And I think they're going to do it again.
00:01:59.500 So I need your help.
00:02:00.840 If that happens again,
00:02:02.300 I want to be able to send you a text
00:02:04.240 or a quick email to let you know where you can find us.
00:02:07.820 YouTube refuses to give us any contact info for you,
00:02:11.620 but if you go to our website right now,
00:02:13.920 I'll wait.
00:02:15.320 Go to rebelnews.com,
00:02:17.540 and just take one second
00:02:18.840 and type in your mobile number or your email.
00:02:21.820 If YouTube bans us again,
00:02:23.580 I'll be able to tell you where we resurface.
00:02:26.400 You can unsubscribe from us anytime.
00:02:28.660 I just don't want YouTube to disconnect us again.
00:02:32.240 Okay, back to what happened.
00:02:33.960 I've learned a lot about YouTube in the past week,
00:02:36.260 and none of it is good.
00:02:37.960 They're an unethical company
00:02:39.360 with deceptive business practices.
00:02:42.000 They're owned by Google,
00:02:43.480 whose motto used to be,
00:02:45.380 don't be evil.
00:02:46.960 They officially decided to drop that a few years ago,
00:02:50.480 and it shows.
00:02:52.100 The first thing to know
00:02:53.300 is that in the past six years,
00:02:54.840 Rebel News has been on YouTube,
00:02:56.800 15,000 videos we've published on the platform,
00:03:00.000 we've never had a strike.
00:03:01.720 By that, I mean,
00:03:02.520 we've never violated their terms of service.
00:03:04.660 We follow the rules every time.
00:03:07.680 But suddenly, last week,
00:03:08.840 with no notice and no appeal,
00:03:10.620 they just suspended us,
00:03:11.880 refused to let us publish any new videos
00:03:13.940 or make a live stream.
00:03:15.780 They claim that an old video that I did
00:03:17.920 more than three months ago
00:03:18.940 suddenly violates their rules.
00:03:21.920 They didn't care about it back then,
00:03:24.160 but let's be honest,
00:03:25.160 they've been combing through our video library
00:03:26.880 going back years
00:03:27.940 to find something, anything to get us.
00:03:31.060 For all I know,
00:03:31.760 they've found other videos from the past
00:03:33.680 that they're waiting to use
00:03:35.000 as their next excuse
00:03:36.280 to ban us permanently.
00:03:38.460 They're tricky that way.
00:03:39.800 Don't trust them.
00:03:41.480 They chose this old video called
00:03:43.200 If Big Tech Can Silence Trump,
00:03:46.040 They Can Silence Anyone.
00:03:47.980 That's a bit ironic, isn't it?
00:03:50.040 It was a video about
00:03:51.220 how biased tech companies have become
00:03:53.520 and how brutally they censor conservatives.
00:03:56.780 That's the video they banned?
00:03:58.460 Hey YouTube, Orwell's 1984 was a warning,
00:04:02.220 not an instruction manual.
00:04:03.680 Don't be evil, okay?
00:04:05.760 In that video, I mentioned how Trump,
00:04:08.020 who was back then still a sitting president,
00:04:10.880 had his official announcements deleted
00:04:12.840 by social media companies,
00:04:14.700 even though foreign dictators like China
00:04:16.680 and Iran and Venezuela are allowed.
00:04:19.200 In my video, I didn't agree or disagree
00:04:21.500 with Trump's messages.
00:04:22.900 I just said they were banned.
00:04:24.840 I was showing how arrogant these censors are,
00:04:27.400 but YouTube claimed that even showing
00:04:29.680 a short clip from a Donald Trump video,
00:04:31.980 not to promote it or support it,
00:04:34.000 but merely to show what was banned,
00:04:36.420 YouTube says that's why we were suspended.
00:04:39.980 But that's a lie.
00:04:42.080 Because CNN showed the same Trump video clip
00:04:44.820 on their YouTube channel
00:04:45.960 and they're not suspended.
00:04:48.160 ABC showed the same video clip
00:04:50.340 on their YouTube channel
00:04:51.580 and they're not suspended
00:04:52.900 because they're liberals
00:04:54.220 and we're conservatives.
00:04:55.360 Different rules.
00:04:56.180 You know, I laughed so hard
00:04:58.100 when I saw this YouTube video the other day.
00:05:00.300 Did you see this joke?
00:05:02.020 It's the president of YouTube,
00:05:03.800 Susan Wojcicki,
00:05:05.160 getting a Freedom of Expression Award.
00:05:07.800 I thought it was a joke
00:05:08.760 and apparently most YouTube viewers did too.
00:05:11.560 I've never seen that kind of ratio before.
00:05:13.800 About 100 people liked the video
00:05:15.300 and 26,000 dislike it.
00:05:18.200 Everyone knows it's a lie.
00:05:19.420 YouTube is the world's biggest censor.
00:05:20.660 I'm surprised YouTube didn't reset
00:05:23.580 those likes and dislike counters.
00:05:25.380 Who knows, maybe they did.
00:05:26.820 I mean, really,
00:05:27.340 who would give the world's most prolific censor
00:05:30.060 a free speech award?
00:05:32.020 Well, I researched the group that did.
00:05:34.120 They're called the Freedom Forum Institute.
00:05:36.120 I'd never heard of them before.
00:05:38.340 And if you look through their website,
00:05:40.340 you can see that YouTube
00:05:41.200 is a major corporate donor to them.
00:05:43.680 That's what happened.
00:05:44.880 And you can see,
00:05:45.660 and this is crazy,
00:05:46.500 right on their website,
00:05:48.120 they literally sell free speech awards
00:05:51.100 to people who donate enough.
00:05:52.620 I'm serious.
00:05:53.120 Let me read from their website.
00:05:54.220 Maybe you want to buy one for yourself.
00:05:56.600 We're happy to help corporations
00:05:58.180 explore the ways that they can
00:05:59.860 leverage their resources
00:06:01.900 and create positive buzz
00:06:03.940 around their brand
00:06:05.240 through a relationship
00:06:06.560 with the Freedom Forum.
00:06:08.540 I wonder if they would sell
00:06:09.640 one of those to Hugo Chavez
00:06:11.060 or the Ayatollahs of Iran.
00:06:13.080 Seriously, Susan Wojcicki
00:06:14.280 made a donation to these shills
00:06:16.060 to have them praise her on YouTube.
00:06:19.020 That's like sending yourself flowers
00:06:20.540 on Valentine's Day.
00:06:22.040 It doesn't really count
00:06:23.300 if you have to pay for it.
00:06:25.440 So our channel suspension is over,
00:06:27.500 but I believe we'll be hit again soon.
00:06:29.640 You see, this was actually
00:06:30.480 the second attack on us
00:06:32.380 in recent weeks.
00:06:33.520 Just recently, YouTube
00:06:34.760 suddenly cut off our ability
00:06:36.880 to run any ads at all
00:06:38.780 or use Super Chats,
00:06:40.400 and they gave no reason
00:06:41.400 for that at all.
00:06:43.060 So they're obviously coming to kill us.
00:06:44.680 This suspension was actually
00:06:46.420 their second attack on us.
00:06:49.180 So in the past week,
00:06:50.260 we've been busy.
00:06:50.980 We've spoken with the executives
00:06:52.180 at three rival YouTube platforms,
00:06:55.940 competitors to YouTube.
00:06:57.860 Rumble, Odyssey,
00:06:59.960 and one other company
00:07:00.800 that's about to launch
00:07:01.720 in the next week or so.
00:07:02.980 And although they still have
00:07:03.860 some catching up to do
00:07:04.940 to have all the bells and whistles
00:07:06.700 that YouTube has,
00:07:08.180 they're great websites.
00:07:09.940 And here's something weird.
00:07:11.520 Whenever we used to do
00:07:12.500 a live stream on YouTube
00:07:13.820 with our 1.45 million subscribers,
00:07:17.060 typically only about 1,500 of them
00:07:19.120 would watch.
00:07:20.140 Now, I never really thought
00:07:21.220 about that much.
00:07:22.600 Maybe our viewers just didn't care
00:07:23.940 what we had to say.
00:07:24.820 Maybe they were busy.
00:07:26.420 But that doesn't really make sense
00:07:28.080 that only one in a thousand people
00:07:30.140 who positively subscribe to us
00:07:32.040 would tune in
00:07:33.160 to a Rebel News live stream.
00:07:34.440 That makes sense.
00:07:35.380 I never thought about it too much
00:07:36.940 until we started
00:07:37.920 doing live streams
00:07:39.480 with these other companies
00:07:40.740 in the past week,
00:07:41.740 Rumble and Odyssey.
00:07:43.400 We have only a handful
00:07:45.040 of subscribers there.
00:07:46.020 We just signed up with them, right?
00:07:47.760 And yet, in our very first day,
00:07:49.960 we had more viewers
00:07:51.280 on our Rumble live stream
00:07:52.860 than we had on YouTube.
00:07:55.360 We had almost as many on Odyssey.
00:07:57.840 You know, I think YouTube
00:07:58.920 has been artificially suppressing
00:08:00.720 our live streams,
00:08:02.040 seriously, maybe by 99%.
00:08:04.100 I really think YouTube
00:08:06.180 are what they promised
00:08:07.280 they'd never be.
00:08:08.360 They are evil.
00:08:09.480 At least towards people they hate.
00:08:11.480 And I don't care
00:08:12.200 how many awards
00:08:13.040 they give themselves.
00:08:14.560 We all know
00:08:15.460 who they really are now, right?
00:08:17.820 So our suspension is over.
00:08:19.940 But I'm sure another one is coming.
00:08:22.400 They'll concoct another excuse.
00:08:25.040 I think one of the reasons
00:08:26.220 YouTube might be
00:08:27.140 in a real hurry
00:08:27.980 to bully us now,
00:08:29.120 after pretty much
00:08:29.900 leaving us alone
00:08:30.580 for six years,
00:08:31.560 is that Justin Trudeau,
00:08:32.960 Canada's Prime Minister,
00:08:34.440 well, he's got a censorship minister
00:08:36.240 named Stephen Gilboe,
00:08:37.420 and he's been threatening
00:08:38.660 social media companies
00:08:40.120 to crack down on his critics,
00:08:42.440 and he plans to bring in
00:08:44.320 a new censorship law
00:08:45.580 within new weeks.
00:08:46.500 He specifically says
00:08:47.960 he's going to create
00:08:49.160 a government regulator
00:08:50.560 to censor
00:08:52.000 social media platforms
00:08:53.720 that allow anyone
00:08:55.380 to taunt politicians.
00:08:57.720 hear it for yourself.
00:08:59.900 We've seen too many examples
00:09:01.580 of public officials
00:09:03.020 retreating from public service
00:09:05.040 due to the hateful
00:09:05.980 online content
00:09:07.020 targeted towards themselves
00:09:08.820 or even their families.
00:09:10.840 He's creating a new
00:09:11.760 ministry of censorship
00:09:12.740 to regulate YouTube,
00:09:14.940 Facebook, and Twitter.
00:09:16.340 I think we need
00:09:17.480 a new regulator.
00:09:18.800 I think this regulator
00:09:19.860 needs to be able
00:09:22.380 to have audit powers
00:09:25.560 over what platforms
00:09:27.420 are doing
00:09:28.000 in terms of content moderation.
00:09:30.040 So he's threatening
00:09:30.940 YouTube with massive fines
00:09:33.160 and even with blocking
00:09:35.360 their servers in Canada.
00:09:37.260 Could we envision
00:09:38.840 having blocking orders?
00:09:40.420 I mean, that's
00:09:41.000 that
00:09:41.540 maybe
00:09:43.320 it's not
00:09:45.800 you know, it's
00:09:46.660 it would be
00:09:48.140 it would likely be
00:09:51.080 a last result
00:09:52.560 last result
00:09:53.840 nuclear bomb
00:09:55.640 in a toolbox
00:09:57.080 of
00:09:57.640 mechanism
00:09:59.000 for a regulator.
00:10:00.400 Theoretically, it is
00:10:01.440 it is a tool
00:10:02.280 that is out there
00:10:03.520 and that could potentially
00:10:04.580 be used
00:10:05.560 but really no decisions
00:10:07.380 have been made
00:10:09.540 on that
00:10:10.520 and I would imagine
00:10:11.680 you know, this is something
00:10:12.740 you would see
00:10:13.240 as part of the regulation
00:10:15.300 most likely.
00:10:16.960 Maybe that's why
00:10:17.940 YouTube is coming
00:10:18.680 to kill us
00:10:19.300 after tolerating us
00:10:20.520 for six years.
00:10:22.500 Trudeau is about
00:10:23.140 to call an election
00:10:23.900 in Canada
00:10:24.520 where his chief critic
00:10:25.940 his censorship minister
00:10:27.580 wants to stop
00:10:28.340 taunts
00:10:28.860 criticism
00:10:29.600 you heard him
00:10:30.200 there's no law
00:10:31.700 that allows him
00:10:32.320 to do that now
00:10:33.040 so he's going to
00:10:33.580 make up a law
00:10:34.340 and he's telling YouTube
00:10:35.380 to shut us down.
00:10:36.800 That's one theory
00:10:37.780 but maybe it's just
00:10:38.880 YouTube
00:10:39.240 acting out
00:10:40.220 against a strong
00:10:41.320 conservative channel.
00:10:42.840 I mean, YouTube
00:10:43.260 is one of the most
00:10:43.900 left-wing companies
00:10:44.840 in America.
00:10:45.840 They probably didn't
00:10:46.840 need any Canadian
00:10:47.760 politician to tell
00:10:48.840 them to censor us.
00:10:50.060 It comes naturally
00:10:51.000 to them
00:10:51.480 but I'm here to say
00:10:53.580 that Rebel News
00:10:54.240 will survive
00:10:55.120 and thrive.
00:10:57.040 The very fact
00:10:58.000 that these bullies
00:10:58.700 want to shut us up
00:10:59.740 and shut us down
00:11:01.660 proves how important
00:11:03.760 our voice is.
00:11:05.840 We represent Canadians
00:11:07.360 and people around
00:11:08.260 the world
00:11:08.800 who want to hear
00:11:10.340 the other side
00:11:11.100 of the story.
00:11:12.400 We'll keep using
00:11:13.480 our YouTube channel
00:11:14.440 until they ban us
00:11:15.600 but even when they do
00:11:17.220 we will live on
00:11:18.340 on Rumble
00:11:19.220 on Odyssey
00:11:19.940 maybe another platform
00:11:21.460 maybe on our own
00:11:22.340 video platform.
00:11:23.160 You know,
00:11:23.580 we had 19 million
00:11:25.260 visits
00:11:25.880 to our
00:11:26.680 rebelnews.com
00:11:27.740 website last year
00:11:28.700 from nearly
00:11:29.180 10 million individuals.
00:11:31.400 Those people
00:11:32.280 know how to find us
00:11:33.500 whether or not
00:11:34.460 YouTube tries
00:11:35.880 to cut us off.
00:11:36.680 So we're going to
00:11:37.420 start posting
00:11:38.160 to our YouTube channel
00:11:39.460 again
00:11:39.860 because 1.45 million
00:11:42.940 beautiful people
00:11:44.240 rely on YouTube
00:11:45.180 to connect with us
00:11:46.280 and just because
00:11:47.740 YouTube is being abusive
00:11:49.140 doesn't mean that
00:11:50.600 we're going to give up
00:11:51.320 on our people
00:11:51.880 who found us
00:11:52.620 through them
00:11:53.060 but every single
00:11:54.820 YouTube video
00:11:55.520 we post in our
00:11:56.480 remaining days
00:11:57.260 or weeks
00:11:57.720 or hours here
00:11:58.680 will have an
00:11:59.740 important message
00:12:00.740 in them.
00:12:01.080 if you don't
00:12:02.060 give us
00:12:02.460 your mobile
00:12:02.920 phone number
00:12:03.660 or your email
00:12:04.500 address
00:12:04.980 by going to
00:12:05.540 rebelnews.com
00:12:06.440 and typing it in
00:12:07.240 the day will come
00:12:09.200 when we will
00:12:10.580 simply be
00:12:11.220 disappeared
00:12:11.960 by YouTube
00:12:13.200 and you may
00:12:14.260 never be able
00:12:14.880 to find us
00:12:15.480 and we'll certainly
00:12:16.100 never be able
00:12:16.600 to find you.
00:12:18.280 So do me that
00:12:19.080 one quick favor
00:12:19.720 go to
00:12:20.140 rebelnews.com
00:12:20.960 right now
00:12:21.540 I'll wait
00:12:22.580 it just takes
00:12:23.920 30 seconds
00:12:24.900 I promise
00:12:25.420 just go to
00:12:26.260 rebelnews.com
00:12:27.160 you'll see a little
00:12:28.120 pop up
00:12:28.640 it takes 30 seconds
00:12:29.780 just type in
00:12:30.460 your email
00:12:30.980 or your mobile
00:12:31.880 phone number
00:12:32.400 I promise
00:12:32.940 we'll never
00:12:33.300 give that info
00:12:33.980 to anyone else
00:12:34.740 you can unsubscribe
00:12:35.940 anytime
00:12:36.560 it's just that
00:12:37.720 when the censors
00:12:38.620 at YouTube
00:12:39.000 shut us down
00:12:39.800 we'll be able
00:12:41.440 to tell you
00:12:41.780 where to still
00:12:42.180 find us
00:12:42.860 by the way
00:12:44.340 if you're already
00:12:44.780 signed up with us
00:12:45.540 you won't see
00:12:46.000 that form
00:12:46.420 so don't worry
00:12:46.920 about it
00:12:47.500 my friends
00:12:48.880 our motto
00:12:49.320 is telling
00:12:49.740 the other side
00:12:50.320 of the story
00:12:50.860 I don't care
00:12:52.580 if that offends
00:12:53.480 Trudeau's
00:12:54.020 political censors
00:12:55.080 or YouTube's
00:12:56.660 corporate censors
00:12:57.580 we're going to
00:12:59.200 keep speaking
00:12:59.660 truth to power
00:13:00.360 we'll stay
00:13:01.740 here as long
00:13:02.380 as we can
00:13:03.120 on YouTube
00:13:03.780 but when we're
00:13:04.920 gone
00:13:05.260 we're gone
00:13:06.800 don't let
00:13:08.540 YouTube
00:13:08.940 separate us
00:13:09.900 please go to
00:13:11.320 rebelnews.com
00:13:12.100 now to give us
00:13:12.740 your details
00:13:13.400 thanks
00:13:14.880 and to hell
00:13:16.600 with the censors
00:13:17.500 in Silicon Valley
00:13:18.840 or Ottawa
00:13:19.640 long live
00:13:20.940 freedom of speech
00:13:21.820 I took the
00:13:35.240 liberty of putting
00:13:36.020 today's monologue
00:13:36.840 up on YouTube
00:13:38.020 and our other
00:13:38.820 video platforms
00:13:39.700 it's important
00:13:40.400 that as many
00:13:41.280 people out there
00:13:42.200 that we don't
00:13:42.560 know how to
00:13:42.920 contact
00:13:43.320 give us their
00:13:44.580 name
00:13:44.980 email address
00:13:45.680 mobile number
00:13:46.240 obviously if you're
00:13:46.940 watching our
00:13:48.000 Rebel News Plus
00:13:48.760 we know how to
00:13:50.000 find you
00:13:50.440 so thank you
00:13:51.240 I just want to
00:13:52.620 make sure that we
00:13:53.400 have the biggest
00:13:54.380 number of our
00:13:55.300 viewers possible
00:13:56.140 in our own hands
00:13:57.780 when YouTube
00:13:58.520 finally comes to
00:13:59.960 kill us
00:14:00.280 otherwise how do we
00:14:00.900 find them
00:14:01.400 the good news is
00:14:02.560 I think we will be
00:14:03.720 able to survive an
00:14:04.700 attack from YouTube
00:14:05.540 the last week
00:14:06.180 proves it to me
00:14:07.300 I did an interview
00:14:08.760 with Gordon Chang
00:14:09.880 as you know
00:14:10.420 he's one of the
00:14:11.220 most interesting
00:14:11.940 pundits and critics
00:14:13.420 of China
00:14:13.980 so let me show you
00:14:15.440 that video now
00:14:16.120 it's on a slightly
00:14:16.760 different subject
00:14:17.440 but really
00:14:17.980 it's pretty similar
00:14:19.520 because if China
00:14:22.020 can surveil
00:14:23.100 its population
00:14:24.020 and track people
00:14:24.960 and give them
00:14:25.360 a social credit
00:14:26.040 score
00:14:26.380 well isn't that
00:14:27.600 sort of what
00:14:28.180 YouTube is trying
00:14:28.840 to do with us
00:14:29.420 here's that
00:14:30.320 interview
00:14:30.640 one of the most
00:14:32.520 terrifying things
00:14:33.360 about modern day
00:14:34.220 China is that
00:14:35.060 it looks so
00:14:36.080 modern in some
00:14:37.000 ways more modern
00:14:38.060 than our own
00:14:38.960 lives here in
00:14:39.540 North America
00:14:40.140 everyone's got a
00:14:41.420 mobile phone
00:14:42.200 their apps are
00:14:43.100 even more advanced
00:14:43.900 than ours
00:14:44.260 TikTok
00:14:44.660 the leading
00:14:45.960 social media
00:14:46.960 app
00:14:47.340 it's a Chinese
00:14:48.100 company
00:14:48.720 and yet that
00:14:50.060 same modernity
00:14:51.260 hides the
00:14:52.760 totalitarian nature
00:14:54.240 underneath it
00:14:55.040 the surveillance
00:14:56.220 state
00:14:57.140 the thing is
00:14:58.720 many people
00:14:59.560 in Canada
00:15:00.360 including those
00:15:01.620 who immigrated
00:15:02.220 here from China
00:15:03.360 continue to use
00:15:04.900 apps that are
00:15:06.460 linked back
00:15:07.640 to that same
00:15:08.820 surveillance state
00:15:09.620 even while they're
00:15:10.300 here in Canada
00:15:11.300 that's apps
00:15:13.060 payment apps
00:15:14.140 social media
00:15:14.980 apps
00:15:15.380 news apps
00:15:16.400 but I think
00:15:17.220 things have
00:15:17.840 reached a new
00:15:18.480 level with a
00:15:19.760 popular restaurant
00:15:20.980 chain from China
00:15:22.420 that's opened up
00:15:23.060 in the Vancouver
00:15:23.720 area
00:15:24.180 the name of the
00:15:25.140 restaurant is
00:15:25.800 Heidi Lau
00:15:27.080 and in fact
00:15:28.080 we're sending our
00:15:28.860 Vancouver Bureau
00:15:29.980 Chief Drea Humphrey
00:15:31.220 to that restaurant
00:15:32.340 today to see what
00:15:33.240 she can find
00:15:33.920 but media reports
00:15:35.480 say that this
00:15:36.420 restaurant may
00:15:37.660 actually be plugged
00:15:38.720 into a larger
00:15:39.800 social credit
00:15:41.320 system which is
00:15:42.200 the name that
00:15:42.800 China gives
00:15:43.640 its surveillance
00:15:44.420 system attached
00:15:45.840 to your personal
00:15:46.680 conduct
00:15:47.300 you get points
00:15:48.220 added if you do
00:15:49.600 things the government
00:15:50.520 likes you get
00:15:51.160 points taken off
00:15:52.340 if you do things
00:15:53.460 they don't like
00:15:54.240 and it can affect
00:15:54.960 your privileges
00:15:56.060 such as those
00:15:56.760 to travel or even
00:15:57.720 get an apartment
00:15:58.380 joining us now
00:15:59.100 via Skype
00:15:59.660 is I think
00:16:00.580 North America's
00:16:01.220 leading expert
00:16:01.920 on this issue
00:16:02.800 our friend
00:16:03.900 Gordon G. Chang
00:16:05.400 you can follow
00:16:06.280 me Gordon G. Chang
00:16:07.100 on Twitter
00:16:07.560 Gordon great to see
00:16:08.380 you
00:16:08.560 we're sending
00:16:09.400 our reporter
00:16:09.940 Drea Humphrey
00:16:10.700 to this restaurant
00:16:11.760 but news reports
00:16:12.940 say that
00:16:13.500 there are 60
00:16:14.900 cameras or other
00:16:16.540 monitors in this
00:16:17.980 restaurant
00:16:18.440 and that the data
00:16:20.360 apparently is being
00:16:22.060 sent back to China
00:16:23.320 we've seen reports
00:16:25.320 on this we want to go
00:16:26.160 see for ourselves
00:16:27.200 but what do you
00:16:28.040 make of what has
00:16:29.100 been reported
00:16:29.700 so far
00:16:30.380 this is the extension
00:16:32.800 of China's surveillance
00:16:34.020 state to the rest
00:16:35.060 of the world
00:16:35.540 and yeah there's 60
00:16:36.940 cameras in a restaurant
00:16:38.120 with 30 tables
00:16:39.640 so really what
00:16:41.080 they're trying to do
00:16:41.860 is to find out
00:16:42.860 everything that's
00:16:43.700 going on
00:16:44.300 now China has
00:16:45.420 this social credit
00:16:46.140 system which you
00:16:46.840 talked about
00:16:47.420 which they're
00:16:48.000 putting together
00:16:48.600 and what it does
00:16:49.960 is it gives
00:16:50.680 every Chinese
00:16:51.440 citizen a score
00:16:52.920 and that score
00:16:54.080 is adjusted
00:16:54.920 constantly based
00:16:56.220 on observed
00:16:56.880 behaviors
00:16:57.420 so they've got
00:16:58.480 626 million
00:16:59.800 surveillance cameras
00:17:00.700 that they claim
00:17:01.460 well information
00:17:03.240 from those cameras
00:17:04.120 are fed into
00:17:04.780 the social credit
00:17:05.500 system and using
00:17:06.900 artificial intelligence
00:17:07.920 and big data
00:17:08.760 they are able
00:17:09.720 to assign
00:17:10.540 these scores
00:17:11.220 now this is China
00:17:13.040 but they're trying
00:17:13.980 to do the same
00:17:14.660 thing in elsewhere
00:17:15.960 and Canada is a
00:17:17.580 perfect place for them
00:17:18.520 because there's so
00:17:19.160 many Chinese citizens
00:17:20.520 and Chinese nationals
00:17:22.400 and they're trying
00:17:22.900 to spy on everybody
00:17:24.120 and you know
00:17:25.580 once they start
00:17:26.320 with this restaurant
00:17:27.040 chain
00:17:27.520 they're going
00:17:28.100 to go elsewhere
00:17:28.940 so this is going
00:17:30.400 to go until
00:17:31.500 we stop it
00:17:32.260 yeah
00:17:32.820 well and one of
00:17:33.960 the things that
00:17:34.440 China is very
00:17:35.060 advanced on
00:17:35.700 there's certain
00:17:36.220 aspects of artificial
00:17:37.700 intelligence
00:17:38.360 that western
00:17:39.480 companies still
00:17:40.180 have the lead
00:17:40.940 but Huawei
00:17:41.920 and other companies
00:17:43.240 in some ways
00:17:44.220 are actually
00:17:44.500 more advanced
00:17:45.280 than their western
00:17:46.620 counterparts
00:17:47.100 facial recognition
00:17:48.240 and gait recognition
00:17:50.400 G-A-I-T
00:17:51.220 how people walk
00:17:52.400 even
00:17:52.880 the little
00:17:53.640 you know
00:17:54.440 how you can
00:17:55.360 sometimes guess
00:17:56.660 who's coming
00:17:57.080 around the corner
00:17:57.660 because you
00:17:58.240 can recognize
00:17:59.280 how they walk
00:18:00.280 their footsteps
00:18:00.980 as opposed
00:18:01.520 to someone else
00:18:02.120 I mean imagine
00:18:03.620 if you visually
00:18:04.340 detect that
00:18:04.900 so these are
00:18:05.380 some of the
00:18:06.080 technologies
00:18:07.240 in which China
00:18:07.860 is very advanced
00:18:08.600 here's my point
00:18:09.560 Gordon
00:18:09.860 you might not
00:18:11.480 have anything
00:18:12.480 to do
00:18:13.300 you might not
00:18:14.040 have your cell phone
00:18:14.800 on
00:18:15.020 you might not
00:18:15.560 be in any
00:18:16.120 system
00:18:17.040 but you walk
00:18:17.740 in
00:18:18.080 if your face
00:18:19.320 is scanned
00:18:20.180 zoom
00:18:21.140 you're in
00:18:22.000 the system
00:18:22.800 they know
00:18:23.520 where you were
00:18:24.120 they know
00:18:24.560 what you ordered
00:18:25.240 they know
00:18:25.560 a credit card
00:18:26.200 you used
00:18:26.700 maybe they overheard
00:18:28.240 what you were
00:18:28.680 talking about
00:18:29.380 you're all being
00:18:30.620 sucked into the
00:18:31.500 system
00:18:31.780 I know that
00:18:32.400 sounds like
00:18:32.860 dystopian
00:18:33.540 science fiction
00:18:34.220 but I really
00:18:35.400 think that's
00:18:35.940 where we are
00:18:36.400 now
00:18:36.740 that's right
00:18:38.140 and China
00:18:38.900 by the way
00:18:39.400 people call it
00:18:40.400 authoritarian
00:18:40.980 well that's
00:18:42.020 really wrong
00:18:42.760 I think that
00:18:43.380 it's semi
00:18:44.400 totalitarian
00:18:45.200 now
00:18:45.600 and it's
00:18:46.320 heading to
00:18:46.960 full
00:18:47.300 totalitarianism
00:18:48.460 and largely
00:18:49.360 because of
00:18:49.880 this social
00:18:50.300 credit system
00:18:51.060 you talk about
00:18:52.160 artificial intelligence
00:18:53.440 people think
00:18:54.840 well you know
00:18:55.420 the West has
00:18:56.060 better AI
00:18:56.920 than China
00:18:57.540 does
00:18:57.840 but the other
00:18:58.840 thing we've
00:18:59.500 got to remember
00:19:00.160 is that AI
00:19:01.020 runs on data
00:19:02.100 and in
00:19:03.100 Western societies
00:19:03.920 there are
00:19:04.460 restrictions on
00:19:05.280 the data
00:19:05.660 that can be
00:19:06.180 fed into
00:19:06.760 these AI
00:19:07.300 systems
00:19:07.740 well there
00:19:08.840 are no such
00:19:09.320 restrictions in
00:19:10.080 China
00:19:10.320 so China's
00:19:11.120 AI could be
00:19:11.920 better than
00:19:12.460 ours
00:19:12.680 because it
00:19:13.200 has more
00:19:13.700 data
00:19:14.140 it's got
00:19:14.740 more to
00:19:15.340 chomp on
00:19:15.960 right
00:19:16.280 oh I
00:19:17.320 think you're
00:19:17.880 right
00:19:18.020 I think China
00:19:18.640 is more
00:19:19.160 advanced
00:19:19.660 in many
00:19:20.500 ways
00:19:20.980 than the
00:19:22.900 Western
00:19:23.120 counterparts
00:19:23.560 part of
00:19:24.180 it
00:19:24.380 is just
00:19:25.160 sheer
00:19:25.740 the sheer
00:19:26.700 amount of
00:19:27.000 research
00:19:27.340 industrial
00:19:27.920 espionage
00:19:28.600 against
00:19:28.920 Western
00:19:29.280 companies
00:19:29.700 and like
00:19:30.400 you say
00:19:30.660 there's
00:19:30.820 just no
00:19:31.200 privacy
00:19:31.860 limits
00:19:32.460 on it
00:19:32.820 here's
00:19:33.440 a scenario
00:19:33.980 you tell
00:19:34.380 me
00:19:34.580 if this
00:19:35.500 is
00:19:35.620 something
00:19:35.900 that
00:19:36.920 we
00:19:37.520 should
00:19:37.680 be
00:19:38.080 worried
00:19:38.340 about
00:19:38.580 there
00:19:39.240 are
00:19:39.720 many
00:19:40.540 Chinese
00:19:41.120 Canadians
00:19:41.600 or other
00:19:42.120 people
00:19:42.380 in Canada
00:19:42.880 who love
00:19:43.900 being ethnically
00:19:44.580 Chinese
00:19:45.060 love Chinese
00:19:45.760 food
00:19:46.040 love Chinese
00:19:46.600 stores
00:19:47.080 love everything
00:19:47.880 about China
00:19:48.300 except the
00:19:48.840 government
00:19:49.220 they might be
00:19:50.320 democracy
00:19:50.800 activists
00:19:51.260 they might
00:19:51.760 be from
00:19:52.320 Hong Kong
00:19:52.880 they might
00:19:53.260 be Falun Gong
00:19:53.920 whatever
00:19:54.320 but they
00:19:55.580 can be
00:19:56.080 detected
00:19:56.640 now
00:19:57.120 they can
00:19:57.560 be tracked
00:19:58.300 now
00:19:58.780 and that
00:19:59.680 information
00:20:00.140 can be
00:20:00.620 fed
00:20:01.080 to either
00:20:02.000 the
00:20:02.320 Chinese
00:20:02.760 embassies
00:20:03.300 here
00:20:03.620 or their
00:20:04.640 sort of
00:20:05.320 front groups
00:20:05.900 like
00:20:06.160 you know
00:20:07.000 the
00:20:07.200 Confucius
00:20:08.060 Institutes
00:20:08.760 or whatever
00:20:09.180 that successor
00:20:09.980 or
00:20:10.600 I don't know
00:20:11.960 it's called
00:20:12.200 the United
00:20:12.500 Patriot Front
00:20:13.160 or something
00:20:13.520 I can't recall
00:20:14.160 so this
00:20:15.300 information
00:20:15.760 can be
00:20:16.080 fed back
00:20:16.880 oh we've
00:20:17.620 detected
00:20:18.020 Falun Gong
00:20:18.700 is meeting
00:20:19.160 there
00:20:19.460 or oh
00:20:19.980 this is a
00:20:20.480 restaurant
00:20:20.900 frequented by
00:20:22.180 Hong Kong
00:20:22.800 democracy
00:20:23.360 activists
00:20:23.740 I don't know
00:20:24.420 I'm
00:20:24.640 brainstorming
00:20:25.460 here
00:20:25.700 we still
00:20:26.680 don't know
00:20:27.220 how this
00:20:27.640 is being
00:20:27.960 used
00:20:28.300 but that
00:20:28.860 is a
00:20:29.180 potential
00:20:29.600 application
00:20:30.280 am I
00:20:30.540 right
00:20:30.760 oh of
00:20:31.820 course
00:20:32.040 and it's
00:20:32.380 being done
00:20:32.760 right now
00:20:33.300 and that
00:20:33.920 information
00:20:34.360 is being
00:20:34.840 fed back
00:20:35.480 into China
00:20:36.080 where it's
00:20:36.980 collated with
00:20:37.740 all sorts
00:20:38.160 of other
00:20:38.480 information
00:20:38.960 so Beijing
00:20:39.760 wants to
00:20:40.360 know
00:20:40.540 everything
00:20:41.000 that's
00:20:41.300 going on
00:20:41.740 in the
00:20:41.960 world
00:20:42.180 and with
00:20:42.960 Huawei
00:20:43.380 servers
00:20:43.920 it's
00:20:44.780 going to
00:20:45.260 go there
00:20:45.740 to a
00:20:46.240 certain
00:20:46.420 extent
00:20:46.760 because
00:20:47.820 Huawei
00:20:48.400 servers
00:20:49.440 allow
00:20:49.880 Beijing
00:20:50.320 to
00:20:50.880 filch
00:20:51.360 information
00:20:51.920 we know
00:20:52.820 this
00:20:53.080 because
00:20:53.400 this is
00:20:53.840 not a
00:20:54.200 theoretical
00:20:54.600 concern
00:20:55.240 we know
00:20:56.120 this
00:20:56.340 because
00:20:56.660 between
00:20:57.000 2012
00:20:57.760 and 2017
00:20:58.800 China
00:20:59.820 was
00:21:00.100 surreptitiously
00:21:00.840 downloading
00:21:01.480 data
00:21:01.880 from the
00:21:02.240 headquarters
00:21:02.640 of the
00:21:03.080 African
00:21:03.460 Union
00:21:03.940 in
00:21:04.260 Addis
00:21:04.560 Ababa
00:21:04.940 because
00:21:05.580 this
00:21:05.820 building
00:21:06.100 was
00:21:06.560 donated
00:21:07.480 by
00:21:07.760 China
00:21:08.060 it
00:21:08.600 was
00:21:08.800 built
00:21:09.140 by
00:21:09.400 China
00:21:09.740 and
00:21:10.220 they
00:21:10.320 had
00:21:10.460 Huawei
00:21:10.780 servers
00:21:11.300 which
00:21:11.560 they
00:21:11.740 were
00:21:11.900 using
00:21:12.280 to
00:21:12.520 filch
00:21:12.880 all
00:21:13.040 this
00:21:13.200 data
00:21:13.540 I
00:21:15.000 was
00:21:15.320 just
00:21:15.500 reading
00:21:15.780 and
00:21:15.920 I'm
00:21:16.340 going
00:21:16.560 to
00:21:16.660 change
00:21:16.940 gears
00:21:17.240 here
00:21:17.460 a bit
00:21:17.660 but
00:21:17.800 I'm
00:21:17.920 sure
00:21:18.100 you're
00:21:18.240 on
00:21:18.360 top
00:21:18.520 of
00:21:18.620 the
00:21:18.720 story
00:21:18.920 the
00:21:19.120 Netherlands
00:21:19.740 there's
00:21:20.540 been a
00:21:20.840 series
00:21:21.120 of
00:21:21.300 stories
00:21:21.600 breaking
00:21:22.120 about
00:21:22.440 just
00:21:22.840 how
00:21:23.220 deeply
00:21:23.980 China
00:21:25.740 was
00:21:26.020 able
00:21:26.200 to
00:21:26.420 grab
00:21:26.740 pretty
00:21:27.000 much
00:21:27.180 every
00:21:27.720 phone
00:21:28.140 call
00:21:28.400 every
00:21:28.720 message
00:21:29.160 in the
00:21:29.560 whole
00:21:29.840 of the
00:21:30.100 Netherlands
00:21:30.440 including
00:21:31.000 political
00:21:31.540 calls
00:21:32.120 including
00:21:32.800 police
00:21:33.340 including
00:21:33.780 dissidents
00:21:34.920 Netherlands
00:21:37.540 isn't the
00:21:38.200 first place
00:21:38.680 that comes
00:21:39.040 to mind
00:21:39.400 when I
00:21:39.660 think
00:21:39.800 of a
00:21:40.000 place
00:21:40.300 to
00:21:40.520 target
00:21:40.880 for
00:21:41.120 China
00:21:41.420 but
00:21:41.920 really
00:21:42.160 when
00:21:42.420 you're
00:21:42.660 putting
00:21:42.860 in
00:21:43.060 the
00:21:43.180 backbone
00:21:43.680 the
00:21:43.940 internet
00:21:44.340 backbone
00:21:44.920 for
00:21:45.220 the
00:21:45.360 5G
00:21:45.760 system
00:21:46.180 the
00:21:47.200 whole
00:21:47.420 world
00:21:47.760 is
00:21:47.980 your
00:21:48.180 oyster
00:21:48.560 you
00:21:48.880 can
00:21:49.100 spy
00:21:49.360 on
00:21:49.520 everyone
00:21:49.820 and
00:21:50.000 everything
00:21:50.320 that's
00:21:50.660 the
00:21:50.740 whole
00:21:50.860 point
00:21:51.120 isn't
00:21:51.340 it
00:21:52.180 yeah
00:21:52.460 and
00:21:53.100 that
00:21:53.540 Dutch
00:21:54.160 telecom
00:21:54.640 company
00:21:55.140 KPN
00:21:55.720 I
00:21:55.940 think
00:21:56.220 didn't
00:21:57.760 tell
00:21:57.980 people
00:21:58.300 because
00:21:58.520 it
00:21:58.680 was
00:21:58.840 afraid
00:21:59.340 of
00:21:59.560 what
00:21:59.720 would
00:21:59.900 happen
00:22:00.300 if
00:22:00.680 it
00:22:00.840 disclosed
00:22:01.600 the
00:22:01.920 extent
00:22:02.420 of
00:22:02.660 China's
00:22:03.040 ability
00:22:03.400 to
00:22:03.700 surveil
00:22:04.280 the
00:22:04.980 Netherlands
00:22:05.280 and
00:22:05.700 this
00:22:05.880 included
00:22:06.420 the
00:22:07.480 cell
00:22:07.840 phones
00:22:08.240 of
00:22:08.740 the
00:22:09.200 Dutch
00:22:09.440 leaders
00:22:09.760 so
00:22:10.620 there
00:22:11.400 really
00:22:11.600 wasn't
00:22:11.920 anything
00:22:12.180 safe
00:22:12.580 here
00:22:12.860 well
00:22:13.760 let me
00:22:14.200 ask
00:22:14.440 you
00:22:14.540 this
00:22:14.700 because
00:22:14.880 I
00:22:15.140 know
00:22:15.540 you
00:22:16.300 have
00:22:16.540 a
00:22:16.800 tremendous
00:22:17.300 breadth
00:22:17.700 to
00:22:17.900 the
00:22:18.100 subjects
00:22:18.420 you
00:22:18.600 follow
00:22:18.840 but
00:22:19.020 I
00:22:19.280 would
00:22:19.460 say
00:22:20.000 that
00:22:20.160 in
00:22:20.280 terms
00:22:20.520 of
00:22:20.660 America
00:22:21.220 China
00:22:21.640 relations
00:22:22.100 that
00:22:22.420 that's
00:22:22.900 something
00:22:23.100 I
00:22:23.260 know
00:22:23.360 you
00:22:23.480 focus
00:22:23.800 on
00:22:23.960 very
00:22:24.160 keenly
00:22:24.660 Donald
00:22:26.060 Trump
00:22:26.420 really
00:22:26.740 tried
00:22:27.020 to
00:22:27.200 change
00:22:27.840 the
00:22:28.480 China
00:22:28.820 US
00:22:29.180 relationship
00:22:29.780 and
00:22:30.100 in
00:22:30.240 many
00:22:30.440 ways
00:22:30.700 he
00:22:30.880 succeeded
00:22:31.360 I've
00:22:32.400 been
00:22:32.560 worried
00:22:33.000 that
00:22:33.320 Joe
00:22:33.560 Biden
00:22:33.920 might
00:22:34.200 backtrack
00:22:34.800 on a
00:22:35.180 number
00:22:35.480 of
00:22:35.660 things
00:22:36.040 can
00:22:36.760 you
00:22:36.940 give
00:22:37.220 us
00:22:37.580 a
00:22:37.880 clear
00:22:38.260 eyed
00:22:38.780 review
00:22:39.240 of
00:22:39.780 the
00:22:39.920 first
00:22:40.180 few
00:22:40.400 months
00:22:40.700 of
00:22:40.860 Joe
00:22:41.040 Biden's
00:22:41.380 administration
00:22:42.020 is
00:22:43.260 there
00:22:43.380 anything
00:22:43.720 you're
00:22:44.080 glad
00:22:44.460 he
00:22:44.720 has
00:22:45.160 done
00:22:45.560 or
00:22:45.900 anything
00:22:46.260 he's
00:22:46.600 kept
00:22:46.980 from
00:22:47.640 the
00:22:47.820 Trump
00:22:48.060 times
00:22:48.460 that
00:22:48.700 may
00:22:48.900 be
00:22:49.000 surprised
00:22:49.480 or
00:22:49.640 impressed
00:22:50.000 you
00:22:50.260 and
00:22:50.740 is
00:22:50.860 there
00:22:50.960 anything
00:22:51.220 he's
00:22:51.460 done
00:22:51.620 towards
00:22:51.940 China
00:22:52.260 that
00:22:52.480 you're
00:22:52.680 really
00:22:52.880 worried
00:22:53.280 about
00:22:53.620 that
00:22:53.800 he's
00:22:53.940 giving
00:22:54.160 things
00:22:54.400 away
00:22:54.760 yeah
00:22:56.600 first
00:22:57.140 of all
00:22:57.420 he's
00:22:57.820 been
00:22:58.140 relatively
00:22:58.740 good
00:22:59.000 on
00:22:59.180 Taiwan
00:22:59.660 and
00:23:00.340 the
00:23:00.520 Philippines
00:23:00.980 you
00:23:02.320 know
00:23:02.440 China
00:23:02.720 has
00:23:02.920 been
00:23:03.060 trying
00:23:03.280 to
00:23:03.460 seize
00:23:03.680 Wits and
00:23:04.120 Reef
00:23:04.380 from
00:23:04.800 Manila
00:23:05.320 this
00:23:06.220 is
00:23:06.380 in
00:23:06.500 the
00:23:06.620 South
00:23:06.800 China
00:23:07.080 Sea
00:23:07.400 and
00:23:08.400 it
00:23:08.760 looks
00:23:09.000 like
00:23:09.440 China's
00:23:10.340 presence
00:23:10.760 and
00:23:11.100 they
00:23:11.240 did
00:23:11.420 this
00:23:11.640 by
00:23:11.960 assembling
00:23:13.520 about
00:23:13.880 220
00:23:14.480 fishing
00:23:15.100 trawlers
00:23:15.600 their
00:23:15.880 their marine
00:23:16.880 militia
00:23:17.760 that
00:23:18.960 size
00:23:20.000 of
00:23:20.280 the
00:23:20.540 Chinese
00:23:21.320 presence
00:23:21.760 has
00:23:22.100 dramatically
00:23:22.880 decreased
00:23:23.600 and
00:23:24.300 largely
00:23:24.580 because
00:23:25.200 the
00:23:25.560 Biden
00:23:25.900 administration
00:23:26.540 has
00:23:26.860 sent
00:23:27.200 the
00:23:27.520 Theodore
00:23:27.840 Roosevelt
00:23:28.260 which
00:23:28.640 is
00:23:28.760 a
00:23:28.920 U.S.
00:23:29.740 carrier
00:23:30.040 and its
00:23:30.680 strike group
00:23:31.440 plus
00:23:31.780 some
00:23:32.060 other
00:23:32.280 vessels
00:23:32.840 and so
00:23:34.060 that
00:23:34.280 seems
00:23:34.700 to have
00:23:35.200 at least
00:23:35.880 moved
00:23:36.200 the situation
00:23:36.800 in the
00:23:37.320 right
00:23:37.500 direction
00:23:37.920 but this
00:23:38.580 is a
00:23:39.080 never
00:23:39.540 ending
00:23:39.940 battle
00:23:40.400 you know
00:23:41.180 in terms
00:23:41.780 of trying
00:23:42.240 to go
00:23:42.680 after
00:23:42.940 Huawei
00:23:43.360 and
00:23:43.920 Chinese
00:23:44.440 supercomputer
00:23:45.000 companies
00:23:45.780 Biden's
00:23:46.860 done a
00:23:47.100 good job
00:23:47.580 in
00:23:47.820 extending
00:23:48.520 sanctions
00:23:49.100 there's
00:23:49.740 some
00:23:49.920 things
00:23:50.180 though
00:23:50.360 that are
00:23:50.640 really
00:23:50.920 horrible
00:23:51.380 and the
00:23:52.080 thing
00:23:52.220 we've
00:23:52.460 got to
00:23:52.800 really
00:23:53.200 be
00:23:53.440 concerned
00:23:53.780 about
00:23:54.140 is
00:23:54.700 what's
00:23:55.080 going
00:23:55.340 to
00:23:55.580 occur
00:23:56.120 tomorrow
00:23:56.920 and
00:23:57.340 Friday
00:23:57.740 and that
00:23:58.220 is
00:23:58.560 the
00:23:58.860 climate
00:23:59.320 summit
00:23:59.660 that
00:23:59.980 President
00:24:00.320 Biden's
00:24:00.860 hosting
00:24:01.180 to coincide
00:24:01.900 with
00:24:02.080 Earth Day
00:24:02.640 we
00:24:04.100 we have
00:24:04.380 we have
00:24:04.400 this
00:24:04.640 whole
00:24:05.140 notion
00:24:05.880 that we
00:24:06.280 should
00:24:06.520 make
00:24:06.760 concessions
00:24:07.280 to
00:24:07.480 China
00:24:07.780 in order
00:24:08.300 to get
00:24:08.760 their
00:24:09.260 increased
00:24:09.760 pledges
00:24:10.220 on
00:24:10.420 climate
00:24:10.840 that
00:24:11.540 is
00:24:11.740 really
00:24:12.260 going
00:24:12.720 to
00:24:12.940 I
00:24:13.140 think
00:24:13.400 sink
00:24:13.780 Biden
00:24:14.360 China
00:24:14.720 policy
00:24:15.200 or
00:24:15.400 at least
00:24:15.620 it
00:24:15.740 has
00:24:15.880 the
00:24:16.000 potential
00:24:16.340 of
00:24:16.600 doing
00:24:16.820 so
00:24:17.140 because
00:24:17.760 the
00:24:18.020 administration
00:24:18.800 officials
00:24:19.280 have
00:24:19.500 the
00:24:19.660 wrong
00:24:19.900 mindset
00:24:20.340 when
00:24:20.620 it
00:24:20.760 comes
00:24:20.980 to
00:24:21.160 China
00:24:21.420 and
00:24:21.820 that's
00:24:22.060 of
00:24:22.260 course
00:24:22.480 an
00:24:22.660 extended
00:24:23.040 conversation
00:24:23.620 but
00:24:23.820 we've
00:24:24.040 got
00:24:24.140 to
00:24:24.240 be
00:24:24.360 concerned
00:24:24.660 about
00:24:24.900 what
00:24:25.080 they're
00:24:25.240 going
00:24:25.360 to
00:24:32.640 well
00:24:32.780 Gordon
00:24:33.120 I'd
00:24:33.300 say
00:24:33.400 we
00:24:33.560 always
00:24:33.820 learn
00:24:34.020 so
00:24:34.240 much
00:24:34.440 from

00:24:37.420 anyone
00:24:37.720 who's

00:24:38.460 show
00:24:38.620 if you
00:24:38.900 want
00:24:39.240 to
00:24:39.520 stay

00:24:40.980 with
00:24:41.600 clear
00:24:42.120 eyed
00:24:42.480 thinking
00:24:42.900 about
00:24:43.700 the
00:24:44.300 relationship
00:24:45.320 between
00:24:45.660 China
00:24:45.920 and the

00:24:54.680 combined
00:24:55.320 I
00:24:56.160 wouldn't

00:25:52.400 shoving

00:25:53.420 a 12
00:25:53.780 year old
00:25:54.180 kid
00:25:54.420 who
00:25:54.620 wouldn't
00:25:55.160 give
00:25:55.320 him
00:25:55.460 ID
00:25:55.840 for
00:25:56.240 being

00:25:56.560 a
00:25:56.660 park
00:25:56.840 I
00:25:56.980 don't
00:25:57.100 think
00:25:57.260 12
00:25:57.480 year old
00:25:57.760 kids
00:25:58.060 need

00:26:03.260 up
00:26:03.480 there
00:26:03.660 I
00:26:03.800 think
00:26:03.960 he's
00:26:04.120 a
00:26:04.260 surfboarder
00:26:05.460 himself

00:26:07.840 this video
00:26:08.240 is well
00:26:08.600 received
00:26:09.000 take a
00:26:09.300 look
00:26:09.540 we have
00:26:10.820 implemented
00:26:11.340 the strictest
00:26:12.340 measures
00:26:12.820 in all of
00:26:14.040 North America
00:26:14.720 we have
00:26:15.920 made the
00:26:16.360 deliberate
00:26:16.860 decision
00:26:17.380 to temporarily
00:26:18.620 enhance
00:26:19.380 police officers
00:26:20.220 authority
00:26:20.720 for the
00:26:21.160 duration
00:26:21.560 of the
00:26:21.880 stay-at-home
00:26:22.360 order
00:26:22.660 moving
00:26:23.860 forward
00:26:24.420 police will
00:26:25.520 have the
00:26:25.920 authority
00:26:26.320 to require
00:26:27.060 any
00:26:27.500 individual
00:26:28.020 who is

00:26:30.060 to
00:26:30.900 first
00:26:31.640 provide
00:26:32.240 their
00:26:32.460 purpose
00:26:32.840 for not
00:26:33.260 being
00:26:33.500 at home
00:26:33.900 and
00:26:34.840 provide
00:26:35.340 their
00:26:35.540 home
00:26:35.760 address
00:26:36.280 the
00:26:55.180 cops
00:26:55.460 came
00:26:55.880 they
00:26:56.460 asked
00:26:56.720 to
00:26:56.800 put
00:26:56.920 their
00:26:57.000 masks
00:26:57.320 up
00:26:57.580 we
00:26:57.980 did
00:26:58.160 that
00:26:58.500 few
00:26:58.860 people
00:26:59.120 didn't
00:26:59.500 because
00:26:59.660 they
00:26:59.720 didn't
00:26:59.840 have
00:26:59.960 a
00:27:00.100 mask
00:27:00.460 they
00:27:01.320 didn't
00:27:01.560 have
00:27:01.720 a
00:27:01.860 mask
00:27:02.320 cops
00:27:03.140 started
00:27:03.400 like
00:27:03.600 pushing
00:27:03.900 up
00:27:04.100 on
00:27:04.280 him
00:27:04.460 asking
00:27:04.840 for
00:27:05.080 ID
00:27:05.380 he's
00:27:05.700 a
00:27:05.800 12
00:27:06.100 year
00:27:06.240 old
00:27:06.400 kid
00:27:06.660 you
00:27:06.820 know
00:27:07.020 he
00:27:07.740 doesn't
00:27:07.980 he
00:27:08.160 wouldn't
00:27:08.400 have
00:27:08.680 ID
00:27:09.020 no
00:27:09.540 there's
00:27:09.720 no
00:27:09.840 excuse
00:27:10.140 no
00:27:10.320 excuse
00:27:10.640 whatsoever
00:27:11.000 no
00:27:11.340 I
00:27:11.740 think
00:27:12.380 the
00:27:12.540 officers
00:27:12.820 should
00:27:13.040 be
00:27:13.180 fired
00:27:13.420 from
00:27:13.600 the
00:27:13.720 force
00:27:13.960 and
00:27:14.300 removed
00:27:14.900 immediately

00:27:23.540 a little
00:27:23.860 familiar to
00:27:24.560 some of
00:27:24.840 you
00:27:24.940 there's
00:27:25.260 a viral
00:27:25.740 video

00:27:26.360 around
00:27:26.660 right

00:27:28.080 officer
00:27:28.600 here
00:27:28.960 in
00:27:29.240 Gravenhurst
00:27:29.940 shoving
00:27:30.680 a
00:27:30.960 12
00:27:31.300 year
00:27:31.440 old
00:27:31.680 kid

00:27:59.180 guys
00:27:59.640 this is
00:28:01.160 unacceptable
00:28:02.540 so it
00:28:03.480 seems
00:28:03.800 that
00:28:03.980 what
00:28:04.120 escalated
00:28:04.620 this
00:28:04.840 altercation
00:28:05.440 was the
00:28:05.920 fact
00:28:06.220 that

00:28:09.720 to
00:28:10.160 the
00:28:10.340 officer
00:28:10.880 so yes

00:28:17.480 year old
00:28:17.840 boy
00:28:18.240 does not
00:28:19.020 give his

00:28:20.180 to a
00:28:21.460 police
00:28:21.800 officer
00:28:22.280 so the
00:28:22.800 police
00:28:23.200 officer
00:28:23.700 responds
00:28:24.480 by shoving
00:28:25.500 the kid
00:28:26.200 to the
00:28:26.520 ground

00:29:54.380 him
00:29:54.820 falls
00:29:55.900 back
00:29:56.300 hits
00:29:56.500 his
00:29:56.660 head
00:29:56.940 you've
00:29:57.460 all
00:29:57.620 seen
00:29:57.760 the
00:29:57.880 video
00:29:58.120 like
00:29:58.460 pretty
00:29:59.760 brutal
00:30:00.520 stuff
00:30:00.840 definitely
00:30:01.260 an excessive
00:30:01.740 amount
00:30:02.060 of force
00:30:02.500 so
00:30:03.140 did they
00:30:03.660 end up
00:30:03.940 taking him
00:30:04.400 away
00:30:04.760 in the
00:30:05.320 cruiser
00:30:05.980 or
00:30:06.380 did he
00:30:07.160 he stayed
00:30:07.660 on the
00:30:08.100 property
00:30:08.480 they
00:30:08.820 didn't
00:30:09.620 so
00:30:10.040 he
00:30:10.460 came back
00:30:11.100 there
00:30:11.360 called
00:30:11.640 his mom
00:30:12.100 at his
00:30:12.580 house
00:30:12.820 and so
00:30:13.820 his mom
00:30:14.220 came
00:30:14.540 and then
00:30:16.000 he pretty much
00:30:16.500 headed home
00:30:17.260 to the
00:30:18.020 OPP
00:30:18.400 to the
00:30:18.900 police force
00:30:19.460 around here
00:30:19.880 did they

00:30:20.960 time
00:30:21.240 with social
00:30:21.660 distancing
00:30:22.060 with mask

00:31:02.340 a lot
00:31:02.720 of
00:31:02.840 people
00:31:03.120 come
00:31:03.960 around
00:31:04.240 here
00:31:04.440 to
00:31:04.620 like
00:31:04.980 try
00:31:05.720 to
00:31:06.020 get
00:31:07.080 out
00:31:07.360 stuff
00:31:08.000 like
00:31:08.180 that
00:31:08.540 and
00:31:09.000 with
00:31:09.140 it
00:31:09.240 closed
00:31:09.620 it's
00:31:13.160 we have
00:31:13.660 our
00:31:13.820 bikes
00:31:14.220 and
00:31:14.420 scooters
00:31:14.780 and
00:31:14.940 we
00:31:15.740 learn
00:31:15.940 new
00:31:16.120 tricks
00:31:16.360 to
00:31:16.520 come
00:31:16.720 here
00:31:16.920 like
00:31:17.400 and
00:31:18.540 we
00:31:18.700 come
00:31:18.860 with
00:31:19.000 our
00:31:19.140 buddies
00:31:19.400 and
00:31:19.560 stuff
00:31:19.800 like
00:31:20.080 distance
00:31:20.660 pretty
00:31:21.020 much
00:31:21.320 because
00:31:21.780 we're
00:31:21.960 riding
00:31:22.220 in the
00:31:22.440 park
00:31:22.700 yeah
00:31:23.620 so
00:31:24.240 you guys
00:31:24.540 when you guys
00:31:25.400 are at the skate park
00:31:26.100 everyone's kind of doing their own thing
00:31:27.480 right for the most part you guys are able to social distance
00:31:29.880 yeah
00:31:30.180 exactly
00:31:30.520 you know
00:31:30.820 outside
00:31:31.320 and fresh air
00:31:31.980 so it doesn't make sense that they would shut
00:31:33.660 something down like this
00:31:35.440 especially when it's one of the few outlets you guys have
00:31:37.780 to do
00:31:38.560 yeah
00:31:39.940 because there's nothing to do really
00:31:40.960 in green or stuff
00:31:41.660 for going to the skate park and the trails and stuff
00:31:43.640 somebody attacked a kid for being in a playground
00:31:47.600 i
00:31:48.480 no
00:31:48.760 i feel very bad
00:31:49.920 i feel very very bad
00:31:51.280 i
00:31:52.000 um
00:31:52.360 i probably shouldn't say what i'm feeling
00:31:54.760 it
00:31:56.000 it doesn't matter
00:31:56.900 if the kid refused to identify himself
00:31:59.780 if he was swearing at the police
00:32:01.380 whatever the case may be
00:32:02.540 is there any excuse for that kind of enforcement on a
00:32:04.940 on a basically a child
00:32:05.860 no
00:32:06.740 no there's no excuse
00:32:07.680 no excuse whatsoever
00:32:08.520 no
00:32:08.880 i i i think the officers should be fired from the force
00:32:11.480 and and removed immediately
00:32:13.040 there's no
00:32:13.860 no
00:32:14.420 no
00:32:15.100 absolutely
00:32:15.980 no
00:32:16.500 i can't i can't stress enough
00:32:17.940 the officer had no right to do
00:32:19.740 any of that
00:32:20.700 at any time
00:32:21.640 no
00:32:22.580 i'm sorry
00:32:23.860 i'm sorry
00:32:24.700 so on friday we saw new measures come into effect
00:32:28.380 regarding the enforcement of covid19
00:32:30.420 that provides police officers with enhanced authority
00:32:33.700 to enforce ontario's stay-at-home order
00:32:36.540 so this includes police officers having the ability to require
00:32:40.920 any person to provide their home address
00:32:44.220 and purpose for not being at their residence
00:32:46.960 do you think that this altercation is a result of these new measures
00:32:50.180 or is it just the case of a bad cop
00:32:52.300 at least a dozen police forces refuse to follow that order
00:32:56.420 because it's unconstitutional
00:32:57.720 so that if there's something wrong with the police force
00:33:00.780 or if there's just something wrong with that police officer
00:33:02.720 i don't know from what i saw there's something wrong with that police officer
00:33:06.960 maybe i should
00:33:07.520 i i don't know what's going on
00:33:09.480 i i don't
00:33:10.220 i feel like i'm in minneapolis right now
00:33:12.200 i feel like i feel like i'm in minneapolis
00:33:14.200 and and it's a child
00:33:15.420 it's a child
00:33:16.220 and it's a playground
00:33:16.880 it's it's wrong
00:33:18.480 it's just wrong
00:33:19.440 sorry
00:33:20.100 it's just
00:33:20.860 no
00:33:21.600 the the police forces themselves said it was wrong
00:33:24.460 and and doug ford
00:33:25.820 or whatever his name is
00:33:27.000 rescinded it
00:33:27.940 no
00:33:28.920 i can't
00:33:30.580 how many times do i have to say no
00:33:31.760 it was wrong
00:33:32.300 police officers should be removed from the force immediately
00:33:34.920 not with pay
00:33:35.700 not put on desk duty
00:33:36.800 just you don't throw a kid on the ground for that
00:33:39.100 sorry
00:33:40.020 the ontario provincial police have stated that they are investigating the video
00:33:45.400 an official statement from the opp reads
00:33:48.360 officers stopped to speak to a group of young people
00:33:51.080 none of whom were wearing masks or social distancing
00:33:53.880 officers attempted to interact with the youths
00:33:56.880 which led to a physical confrontation between one officer and one young person
00:34:01.280 i reached out to two lawyers from the department of justice that represents the ontario provincial police
00:34:06.320 with a couple of questions
00:34:07.440 what happened before the video started that caused the officer's reaction
00:34:11.780 what was the child's alleged infraction
00:34:14.480 was the child issued any tickets or summons
00:34:18.100 what is the officer's name that is involved in the incident
00:34:22.060 has he been the subject of disciplinary action before
00:34:25.240 i've yet to receive a response for that email
