Action4Canada - Celebrate Wins & Help Shape The Future with Tanya Gaw and Danielle Pistilli, Dec. 3, 2025

00:00:00.000 You were criticized, you were slandered, attacked, and funny enough, many of those voices have now

00:00:05.820 disappeared or fled. What would you want people to remember you for?

00:00:10.120 I think it would be for proclaiming that Canada is a Christian nation and that they would 1.00

00:00:38.720 understand how critically important it is to our freedoms and democracy and to pass that gift on

00:00:45.460 to the next generation so that this doesn't happen again. If we cared about the elected officials,

00:00:52.940 if they were men of honor and men of God, and that it wasn't just by word, but it was how they

00:00:58.480 conduct their life. If people actually cared about the character of the people that were running for

00:01:03.100 office, if the church would rise up and from within the church support good godly leaders,

00:01:10.260 men and women to run for office, we would have never been in this position. We would have never

00:01:15.520 opened, allowed businesses across the nation to open on Sundays. We would have had that true day

00:01:20.980 of rest. We wouldn't have allowed prayer to be removed from school. We would have started,

00:01:26.380 remained, you know, opening the school day with prayer, the Lord's Prayer. We would not have,

00:01:33.080 removed prayer from government. They used to, you know, pray before the legislature

00:01:38.940 began. And so, yeah, I guess, I guess that would be it.

00:01:45.000 Well, hello, and thank you for joining us for the Empower Hour. I'm looking forward to this evening.

00:02:03.100 It's going to be a different Empower Hour. I'm going to be put on the hot seat. And the script is

00:02:10.740 flipped a little, as my guest will be telling us and the new host of the show. I am just so excited.

00:02:16.760 Today, I have the honour of passing the mic to one of my dearest friends, Danielle Pastille. I met

00:02:22.740 Danielle in the fall of 2020 at one of the first rallies I attended in Vancouver, and it happened

00:02:28.620 to be the day I announced that Action for Canada would be commencing legal action against the BC

00:02:34.440 and federal government. From there, Danielle and I grew to be fast friends as she hosted the upcoming

00:02:41.400 rallies every Saturday throughout that fall of 2020 into the winter months. And I'm talking sun,

00:02:48.500 rain, snow. We showed up. Tents, resources, mics ready, speakers ready. It was just an amazing

00:02:56.140 season of this journey that we've been on in these past years. But nothing stopped us from proclaiming the

00:03:03.180 truth and warning the masses. And we still continue today. Danielle was a driving force throughout

00:03:08.720 those many months in helping us raise a significant amount of the funds needed for our constitutional

00:03:14.200 challenge, which happens to be one of the only COVID cases still proceeding today. Danielle has been

00:03:21.240 a steady voice in the grassroots advocacy, helping co-found and organize initiatives like Freedom

00:03:27.140 Rally World and the Freedom Organization, which created community and conversation

00:03:32.620 through weekly online interviews and unity driven events. She is also the co-author in the book series,

00:03:38.960 The Brave Books and co-producer of the documentary, The Hidden Healthcare Crisis. Danielle leads with courage

00:03:45.820 and deep care for others grounded in her faith, the support of her family and guided by a belief that

00:03:52.640 advocacy is generational work. We must work together to pass this on to the next generation. We have to pass on

00:04:00.120 the baton. I trust her, I respect her, and I am grateful to call her my friend. Please join me

00:04:06.960 in welcoming Danielle Pastille, who will be, as I say, hosting the Empower Hour tonight as we flip the 0.87

00:04:12.920 script and I become the guest. Welcome, Danielle.

00:04:16.180 Welcome, Tanya. Thank you for having me and thank you for trusting me to be able to do this with you

00:04:22.580 today, Tanya. I've been looking forward to this and I've been, I've thought about this for a long time

00:04:27.120 where I wanted to have people see you in a light that only very few of us ever get to see and I know

00:04:33.580 the weight that's on your shoulders with all the work that you do and so I really wanted to be able

00:04:37.920 to encapsulate some of those precious moments that you and I have had together that I think others

00:04:43.860 need to see as well. Well, thank you for that, Danielle. It does feel strange as you and I were

00:04:50.180 preparing for the show tonight. You know, it's a little unnerving because of the position that I've

00:04:55.780 been on and always coming on to the Empower Hour, bringing on guests and hammering home, you know,

00:05:00.280 how can we educate people? How can we mobilize them? But there is, you know, things for our members

00:05:06.040 to know and those who have become part of the Action for Canada family. So, I'm happy to move

00:05:10.700 forward and have this conversation tonight. Yeah, me too. Well, I think I'm going to start with,

00:05:15.880 was it last year or was it the year before that I did? Last year. Yeah, okay. So, there was a little

00:05:21.920 speech that I did. You had me come on to do some fundraising for you and I was reading back and

00:05:26.600 reflecting on that and I thought, you know, it's so poignant even still to this day and so if you

00:05:33.080 would allow me, I would just like to maybe, I want to reiterate that piece again. So, on behalf of so many

00:05:40.520 people across this nation, I want to take a moment to thank God for blessing our country with an

00:05:45.180 extraordinary woman that I have the privilege of calling my friend and that is that, that is the

00:05:51.620 unstoppable Tanya Gaw. If there's one word that comes to mind when I think of Tanya and Action for

00:05:57.320 Canada, it's hope. Let me take you back to a great afternoon in September 2020 when Tanya stepped onto

00:06:03.620 the stage at the Vancouver Art Gallery and alone but searching for connection in the midst of the world

00:06:12.000 turned upside down. Tanya's hands were trembling and her speech paper slipped to the ground and you could have

00:06:18.160 heard a pin drop as she boldly declared, I would like to thank God and God alone for the ground that I'm

00:06:23.200 standing on. Her words carried a gravity that ignited so much excitement when she announced that she would be

00:06:29.720 taking on the monumental task of holding our government accountable legally for the lies, division and

00:06:35.100 propaganda they had unleashed, unleashed upon us. What happened next remains to be one of the most

00:06:40.560 inspiring moments I've ever witnessed still in my life, still to this day. After Tanya's announcement,

00:06:46.120 a single person stepped onto the stage holding up a hundred dollar bill as an act of support for her

00:06:51.160 vision. That simple yet powerful gesture sparked an incredible response from what seemed to be a never

00:06:58.920 ending sea of people that came forward offering everything from spare change to hundred dollar

00:07:03.620 bills. This incredible moment of collective action ignited a glimmer of hope that spread like wildfire.

00:07:10.940 It was a turning point reminding all of us of the immense power we have when we come together for a

00:07:16.660 common cause. Thanks to Tanya's bravery and guidance, this shared experience literally transformed feelings of

00:07:24.040 helplessness to empowerment. She showed us that together we are so much more powerful than the one

00:07:30.580 percent that have been trying to rule over us. I think it's safe to say that Tanya quickly became a

00:07:35.780 beacon of light during a time of darkness and uncertainty for so many of us. But Tanya's journey didn't end or

00:07:43.160 even just begin in 2020. Long before that pivotal moment, she was already fiercely advocating, shining a light

00:07:51.720 on all the erosion of parental rights and speaking out about the concerning changes taking place in

00:07:57.860 schools and communities and well as well as the immigration issues that have been plaguing our

00:08:03.300 country. Tanya has never been afraid to speak out about uncomfortable conversations that most people

00:08:10.500 avoid as she has consistently been ahead of the curve warning us of significant issues that threaten the

00:08:16.640 fabric of our nation. Tanya's work has since progressed to new bold legal actions and her lawsuit regarding 0.56

00:08:24.620 all of the mandates is one of the few still active in the courts today. Tanya has her thumb on the pulse of

00:08:31.940 what is happening all over this country, acting as the eyes and the ears and the voice of so many of us who would

00:08:39.620 otherwise remain unaware and has inspired countless people to get involved in advocacy work, myself included.

00:08:46.640 Because of Tanya's fearless leadership, thousands have been motivated to contribute their time, expertise

00:08:54.620 and connections and financial support. Without this collective effort, tackling these monumental issues

00:09:01.620 would be impossible. Additionally, there is a tight and mighty core team that has been volunteering their time

00:09:09.620 and talents to support Action for Canada and to do all that they can to stand on the front lines and say,

00:09:15.600 not on my watch. Much like Gideon's Army, it is not the size of the group that determines the success, but the strength,

00:09:24.600 courage and commitment of the people involved. And as life regains some normalcy, we must not lose sight

00:09:31.600 of the importance of staying engaged as the battles that Action for Canada takes on comes with

00:09:37.580 significant costs, financial, emotional and logistical. From technical support and website maintenance to

00:09:46.580 massive legal fees, mail platforms and print materials, these efforts require all of us to share the burden.

00:09:53.580 We cannot leave the responsibility to just one person or a small team. If we expect change, we must be active participants in creating it.

00:10:03.580 Tanya, your work and unwavering determination inspire all of us. I know this hasn't been easy. It's been a long road.

00:10:13.560 But your courage, dedication have brought so much hope to so many. And I want you to know how profoundly grateful many of us are that you continue to say,

00:10:23.560 yes, God, to take on all that you do to defend faith, family and freedom.

00:10:28.560 And to everyone here tonight, I urge you to reflect on the importance of staying involved.

00:10:34.560 Let's not forget the struggles that we've endured, the lessons we've learned and the progress that we've made.

00:10:40.560 As we approach the holiday season, a time of generosity and reflection, I ask of all of you to consider what can you do to support Action for Canada?

00:10:51.560 Whether it's through volunteering your time, offering your talents or donating your treasures or simply sharing this message, your contribution matters.

00:11:02.560 And as a wise man, David Lindsay once taught me advocacy is a generational task.

00:11:08.560 What you do today, make no mistake, your children and grandchildren are taking notice.

00:11:13.560 Involve them in what you are doing.

00:11:16.560 Talk about it at the dinner table, because every donation made, every moment volunteered and every effort you give is not just a contribution.

00:11:25.560 It's a lesson to the generations that follow.

00:11:29.560 We're not just fighting battles.

00:11:31.560 We're building legacy of courage and unity that will echo long after us.

00:11:37.560 The change that we all long for begins with each of us choosing to act.

00:11:43.560 Tanya, thank you for being a beacon of light and hope and reminding us of what it means to stand firm in the face of adversity.

00:11:53.560 Because of you, we are reminded that even the smallest acts of courage can spark a fire of hope and together we can create a future where there's truth, freedom and faith will prevail.

00:12:06.560 So tonight, let's reignite the passion and determination that brought us together in the first place and ensure that 2026 is a year of renewed action, strength and purpose.

00:12:19.560 And I'd like to start with that wave of support by offering the first hundred dollars again.

00:12:26.560 So, I'm hoping that that will encourage others to step up and to do the same.

00:12:31.560 And to Tanya, the core team, and to all of the Action for Canada volunteers, keep up the good fight.

00:12:37.560 This country needs you more than ever.

00:12:39.560 You are an inspiration to those around you, and what you do is highly contagious in a good way.

00:12:45.560 Do not ever underestimate the impact of every little thing that you do.

00:12:50.560 Thank you for making this world a better place.

00:12:52.560 It does not go unnoticed.

00:12:54.560 So, I was reading that and I just thought, you know, it needed to be read again.

00:13:00.560 I know that we'll talk about some of these things a little bit further on when I'm asking you some questions.

00:13:06.560 But before we do, I'm hoping, Tanya, that you won't mind maybe taking us through your year-end review that you put together for 2025.

00:13:14.560 I know you've been working on many different things.

00:13:16.560 So, why don't we start with that?

00:13:18.560 Okay.

00:13:19.560 Yeah.

00:13:20.560 And thank you, Danielle.

00:13:21.560 I'm a little bit emotional right now.

00:13:22.560 So, I just want to thank you genuinely for that tribute to myself and the team.

00:13:27.560 As you know, it's not just, you know, I may be the face of Action for Canada and sometimes that driving force, but this team behind me, I have not been able to do it without their work and with support from beautiful, wonderful people like you.

00:13:39.560 So, yeah, I think that would be great.

00:13:42.560 I'm looking forward to the Q&A time.

00:13:44.560 But just for in case anybody is happening to join us that is not familiar with Action for Canada, I'm going to start with just a couple of little updates and share my screen.

00:13:56.560 And then I will turn to the 2025 year in review, which I am excited to share with you.

00:14:04.560 So, just a moment.

00:14:06.560 I'm hoping that I got that right.

00:14:07.560 How are we looking?

00:14:08.560 Are we sharing okay, Transu?

00:14:11.560 Okay, super.

00:14:12.560 Thank you.

00:14:13.560 All right.

00:14:14.560 So, many of you know that I've mentioned that this is a spiritual battle of epic proportions that we're going through.

00:14:21.560 The government did commence war against Canadians.

00:14:24.560 And in order to really destroy Canada, they need to destroy the foundation of this nation, which is founded on Judeo-Christian biblical principles.

00:14:34.560 And over the years, as I've mentioned, God called on me years ago.

00:14:39.560 Back in 2015, I wish I had written down the date and it was like an audible voice.

00:14:45.560 And he said, you know, I want you to proclaim Canada as a Christian nation.

00:14:49.560 And back then, I'm thinking, you know, 10 years ago, well, we are a Christian nation.

00:14:53.560 They're trying to call us secular and other things.

00:14:56.560 But now we are seeing, you know, more than ever why that's important, even to people who are atheists or agnostic.

00:15:04.560 They won't have these same freedoms in other countries or under a communist socialist regime.

00:15:10.560 And even those people are saying, you know, I'm not a Christian, but I certainly support the principles that Action for Canada, you know, is talking about and what formed this nation.

00:15:20.560 They see the advantage of what our fathers of confederation gifted us with.

00:15:27.560 So about, I want to say six months ago or so, at the beginning of the year, we heard that a committee, the financial committee last December had snuck in that they were going to remove charitable status for churches.

00:15:38.560 It was supposed to be in the budget, but November 4th, the budget came.

00:15:41.560 And because of all of the backlash, the letters that were written, the government knew that there's a lot of support for Christianity in this nation.

00:15:53.900 And they decided not to move forward at this time with it.

00:15:57.100 So I've just launched this on Sunday night, Monday.

00:16:00.840 You would have received it if you've signed up for Action for Canada emails.

00:16:04.580 And now it's defend our churches round two, because, you know, these hate speech bills that have been going through the legislature that they've been talking about that are supposed to quell hate speech.

00:16:18.280 But really, it is to censor morality.

00:16:21.900 It is to censor anything that opposes their radical ideologies that they've been trying to shove down our throats for the last decade.

00:16:30.920 And so we're just continuing to say, no, we're standing on the front line.

00:16:35.320 So Action for Canada sends out these types of emails.

00:16:39.540 We just give you a bit of an idea of what the action is about.

00:16:43.720 And then we explain more in the actual letter that will go to the elected officials.

00:16:48.280 So it takes less than five minutes.

00:16:50.780 You would copy and paste this email, and then you would send it to the email addresses that we actually provide you.

00:16:58.420 It's very, very easy.

00:16:59.800 It's very, very effective.

00:17:01.600 I've heard that since we commenced this action on Monday morning that people are – Sean Fraser has already put together a template letter that is being emailed in response.

00:17:14.320 So they are hearing our voices, and it's – wouldn't it be amazing if a million people took action?

00:17:20.360 I mean, that is a powerful message to these tyrants, that we are not going to give up our freedoms.

00:17:28.640 One of the reasons they say they're wanting to put forward this hate speech and going after so-called religions is because the Muslims are out in the street,

00:17:38.320 and they are using their religious doctrine to spew hate towards Jews in Canada and just bringing a foreign war here that has no business. 0.94

00:17:46.560 Islam is not a religion. It doesn't qualify under our protections, and so they're trying to throw Christianity and our foundation out with the bathwater. 1.00

00:17:56.500 I don't care if we offend these people. They're certainly not worried about offending us, and they are here to take over.

00:18:03.260 And so we have got to fiercely defend Canada as a Christian nation.

00:18:07.840 I have provided a PDF. You can click on it right here, and it's an actual page.

00:18:14.040 The PDF is here that you can click on. It will look like this, and it breaks down all of the evidence and the history of why we are a Christian nation and how we can qualify that.

00:18:24.460 And by the government coming in and trying to pass Bill C-9, they are in violation of everything we stand for.

00:18:30.160 It would be a Supreme Court challenge, and we would just overturn this.

00:18:34.480 In fact, I provide, thanks to David Lindsay, multiple Supreme Court rulings also validating that we are a Christian nation.

00:18:45.540 This week, we are also starting to commence some actions.

00:18:48.760 We'll go more full on in the new year with this, but all these Palestinian flags are being raised in cities across the country.

00:18:55.380 It is completely against everything that we stand for.

00:19:01.040 These people do not have the freedom to come and use our laws and our human rights codes to bring their hate onto our land.

00:19:10.340 And so we are calling for the end of the weaponization of the flagpole, whether it's radical LGBTQ ideologies or these foreign ideologies that are coming in here and trying to disrupt and bring chaos. 1.00

00:19:22.580 And Alberta, because of the amount of people rising up in Alberta, Daniel Smith at the UCP AGM this last weekend actually put a ban on all flags other than municipal, provincial and federal.

00:19:38.420 So progress is being made.

00:19:39.780 Your voice matters.

00:19:40.940 That's why Action for Canada is here, you know, to initiate the call to action campaigns.

00:19:46.640 Now, last year was the first year I did an Action for Canada 2024 year in review, and I thought, boy, I need to do that again.

00:19:53.980 So just a few minutes, this is going to be going out in the email next weekend.

00:19:58.340 I would just highly recommend that you would, you know, review the page.

00:20:02.060 It would probably take all of five or ten minutes if you want to just skim through it.

00:20:06.040 It should give you a great deal of encouragement.

00:20:08.260 And then I hope it would motivate you to support Action for Canada in sharing our information, getting it out on social media.

00:20:16.340 We are still being, I had a post on Facebook the other day, and it was the interview I did with Maxine Bernier.

00:20:25.600 It had a thousand views within, I think, 24 hours.

00:20:28.680 I go to look on it yesterday, and all of those views are gone.

00:20:31.660 So Facebook is still censoring, Twitter is censoring, and so the only way we can do this is by the one-on-one.

00:20:40.440 Even our email is being censored, but maybe your email isn't being censored, and you can share it with your friends.

00:20:46.540 So please help us in whatever way you can.

00:20:50.100 And just to be very, very encouraged by the advancements that we're making,

00:20:55.100 I give a little message to our donors, because for all of you that have become monthly supporters, thank you.

00:21:02.040 You help us budget.

00:21:03.520 You help us, you know, to think forward of what we will be able to afford to do.

00:21:09.080 Our team is the majority of everyone is working around the clock, and it's done by volunteer hours.

00:21:16.100 And so we're not looking at, you know, what we can do this weekend.

00:21:20.880 I don't go out to dinners.

00:21:22.360 I don't, you know, have the opportunity to get together with my friends.

00:21:26.340 This is full-on war, and we've got to get that mindset in order to move forward.

00:21:32.000 So I want to start by highlighting the A4C chapter leaders.

00:21:37.260 This is also what you help fund nationwide.

00:21:40.300 This is a look at the map, and all those beautiful little dots or chapters nationwide, and I just give them a huge shout-out.

00:21:46.980 We do Empower Hours every week.

00:21:48.960 It's to educate and mobilize citizens.

00:21:51.220 We give an alert that our Gmail tell us whatever email system you have are blocking action for Canada's emails, and we keep asking that you will reach out to whatever your email service provider is and demand that they stop blocking your emails.

00:22:07.380 It's against the law.

00:22:08.880 They can't sit at the bottom of my driveway and say, oh, you can't deliver mail to this address.

00:22:12.720 And there is absolutely no way they should be interfering with the delivery of your service either.

00:22:20.420 Success stories, of course, this year was the huge win in Alberta, where a year ago we started lobbying government.

00:22:26.880 We gave them a three-inch binder to show the measurable harms to children, including through SOGI 123, which we will persist to get removed from the education system.

00:22:36.280 It had the images of the books.

00:22:38.940 Thank goodness Minister Nicolaitis, he took the information seriously, and by the spring, they were removing these books and literally calling them what they are, sexually explicit and pornographic books.

00:22:52.180 So that's a huge win.

00:22:53.760 I consider that it was an important win with the churches as well to maintain charitable status, and this is the power of the people when we come together and we unite.

00:23:02.900 Just the legal action updates, I finally heard, in case you hadn't heard my previous update, the legal action involving Tyson Cook, a.k.a. Dry Queen Frida Wales, the guy that likes to do videos where he's chopping people up, eating them and feeding them to his pot-bellied pig,

00:23:22.960 and happens to be a teacher's assistant in the Kelowna School District, decided to come after Action for Canada for defamation.

00:23:32.140 But everything we reported on was off his own website.

00:23:37.000 So basically, he defamed himself.

00:23:38.780 He was proud of it when he posted this information, and all of a sudden, when we're talking about this information that he posted, he's not so happy about it.

00:23:47.820 But we put forward a SLAP application in September.

00:23:51.560 We were hoping to be in court the week of December 8th, but due to lawyer schedules, it will be the week of June 29th, 2026.

00:24:01.760 Our legal action with Rocco, we have to wait again for December 12th to come in order to book a date for February.

00:24:08.420 It is an absolute joke, the court system, but we are pursuing it at every opportunity we can get to be before the courts and continue to have our case moving forward.

00:24:19.780 Thank you again for your donations, because they allow us to travel and to get the word out.

00:24:28.380 Kim and I took a trip to Washington, D.C. at the end of September and the beginning of October,

00:24:34.340 and we joined the international partners that I've been working with since the beginning of the year

00:24:40.340 to advocate for our children, to protect them and parental rights by opposing the World Health Organization's comprehensive sexuality agenda,

00:24:49.060 which is to sexualize children from the earliest age possible.

00:24:52.820 This is a battle that I've been in personally since 2016, fighting for our children,

00:24:57.640 and I will not stop until this is eradicated from the education system, from our social media platforms.

00:25:06.240 This is demonic, it's evil, it is leading to our children being sterilized and to being physically, medically mutilated,

00:25:14.480 and that no time in history would we be able to sit back and allow this to happen to our children.

00:25:20.340 So we need more ferocious parents and citizens rising up in support of us as we work and lobby

00:25:26.780 government and government in the United States.

00:25:29.580 We had tremendous feedback from them walking through the halls of Congress and the Senate down there

00:25:34.480 and going into congressmen and women's offices and senators' offices. 0.99

00:25:39.520 That work is continuing, and I'm in touch, of course, with Rhonda and Audrey from the United States

00:25:47.120 as they continue to pursue the investigation of Alfred Kinsey.

00:25:50.820 So your support allows us to attend these events.

00:25:54.940 Plus, in Canada, our chapter leaders are, normally we have a church that supports us,

00:26:01.440 and we go to conventions and events to get also the word out and help educate more people.

00:26:08.000 We don't want to show up at a convention and just, you know, report on all the horrible things

00:26:12.400 that are happening in Canada.

00:26:13.620 We come, we're the, one of the only organizations that come with clear solutions and strategy.

00:26:18.820 And again, thank you for your support.

00:26:21.580 We are calling out against UNDRIP and DRIP-IT in British Columbia and Canada-wide.

00:26:27.380 Our special guest comes to educate us with the truth and the fact.

00:26:30.600 So many people have been indoctrinated and conditioned to believe the lies that are coming out from the

00:26:39.280 socialist agenda.

00:26:42.140 We can't call them liberals.

00:26:43.900 We can't call them the NDP.

00:26:45.360 We can't call them the Green Party or right now the Bloc Québécois because they're all working

00:26:50.000 strategically together.

00:26:51.660 Even the Conservative Party is facilitating this cabal on many levels, and we are just resetting

00:26:58.680 the truth.

00:26:59.740 The truth, we're proclaiming it, and it's going to become the truth again.

00:27:02.540 So don't take at face value what CBC News, or if you still listen to them, or Global News

00:27:07.940 is telling you.

00:27:09.300 And please stop rejecting the information that Action for Canada is putting out because we

00:27:14.620 always base it on well-researched information.

00:27:18.560 And so we just encourage you to read and research the pages that we've provided with all of this

00:27:25.860 truth and evidence.

00:27:27.620 So we are coming out definitely against Islam. 1.00

00:27:30.980 Hard and fast.

00:27:31.780 I want to see, I have an e-petition ready to go to designate the Muslim Brotherhood as 0.99

00:27:36.600 a terrorist organization.

00:27:38.040 We want to see a full stop on mass immigration, a full moratorium. 0.99

00:27:43.180 And thank goodness, as we lobby government and leaders like Maxime Bernier, who went from,

00:27:48.160 yeah, you know what, we'll bring 150,000 immigrants in, to as well, understanding the need to put a

00:27:54.860 moratorium in place at least for a decade so we can clean up Canada's immigration system, 0.97

00:28:00.120 deport all of these people who are coming in and robbing Canadians blind of their hard-earned 1.00

00:28:06.240 tax dollars. 0.99

00:28:06.940 These freeloaders.

00:28:07.980 It's got to stop.

00:28:09.600 And we've got to be able to encourage our own people to have children and raise families and

00:28:16.060 to be able to afford a home.

00:28:17.340 It's Canada first, it's Canadians first, and it's going to be based on Christian principles. 0.98

00:28:23.560 We are, as always, protecting our children.

00:28:25.940 We're going after the 15-minute cities.

00:28:28.180 We can't do any of this without our prayer team who meets Monday, Wednesday, Friday.

00:28:33.960 If you want to get connected and be on the prayer team, go to our resource page, look up

00:28:39.560 church resources, and join the prayer team.

00:28:43.700 As I have mentioned, Canada's Christian nation, if I could ask so boldly that you would take

00:28:50.120 this and that you would send it to every mayor and city council, that you would send it to

00:28:54.700 your school board trustees and superintendents, that you would send it to your MLAs and MPPs

00:28:59.460 and your MPs, and I don't care if they're foreigners who have infiltrated our government 1.00

00:29:04.560 or not, they are duty-bound and they've taken an oath to uphold the fact that we are a Christian

00:29:10.000 nation, and it's about time we start reminding them of that.

00:29:14.240 Just a quick overview of the 2025 urgent calls to action.

00:29:19.160 This is a fraction of them, purely because we haven't had enough people to take the actions

00:29:24.520 that we're sending out into communities and post them on the website, but we're working

00:29:29.140 towards that now, and this page could be double or triple that if we actually put all the

00:29:34.720 work that's going on in the background for Canadians and in your communities.

00:29:38.960 And I'm going to put a plug in, this is why it's so important, we need more chapter leaders

00:29:43.060 within your community, because the work we're doing is having a measurable effect.

00:29:48.220 It's really, really effective, and we're very proud of that.

00:29:51.620 We provide homeschool information on how we're, that call to, you know, parents, get your kids

00:29:58.740 out of the education system.

00:30:00.300 As Alex Newman says, 9-1-1, the schools are on fire.

00:30:03.640 And just the parental rights resources we have, all of this information is here for you.

00:30:08.980 I hope many of you have benefited from Action for Canada, having guests on over the years,

00:30:14.100 encouraging you to invest in silver and gold, but especially silver, it is going through

00:30:22.200 the roof right now.

00:30:23.220 It's up to over $80, and many people with Action for Canada purchased at high 28s or in

00:30:31.040 the $30, $32 range when we first got started.

00:30:34.600 And so we really want to make sure that Canadians are set, that when the banks collapse or the

00:30:40.640 Canadian dollar, that you will be able to provide and take care of your family.

00:30:44.900 And if you've really, really benefited from this, we wouldn't mind a little bit of an

00:30:48.460 extra special gift at the end of this year.

00:30:51.380 All right, there's, like I say, review the page.

00:30:54.120 It's just amazing work that Action for Canada is doing, and I'm so pleased to be able to share

00:30:59.040 that with you tonight and look forward to sending this resource out to you next week.

00:31:03.220 So, Danielle, back to you.

00:31:04.900 I'm on the hot seat.

00:31:05.840 Here we go.

00:31:06.340 I'm not, I shouldn't be surprised, but every time I hear you go through that, I'm just like,

00:31:12.060 wow, like all of the projects that you have got, that you've got on the go, you are one

00:31:17.560 of the most fierce, hardworking women I know, Tanya, but I know that this sacrifice that you've

00:31:23.300 made over the years has been, you know, it hasn't all been, it's not all ups, right?

00:31:29.420 There's a lot of walls that you hit and whatnot, and I've seen you through some difficult times

00:31:36.240 when there's been hurt or sadness, or there's been days when you felt like you haven't been

00:31:41.580 able to just carry on sometimes.

00:31:43.920 And so, you know, it's been almost six years now, but before we get to some of the deeper

00:31:48.200 stuff, I kind of realized that there's a side of Tanya that I don't actually know very well.

00:31:53.340 It's the, you know, the pre-COVID Tanya.

00:31:55.120 And, you know, so many of us are bored with superficial conversations that, you know,

00:32:00.020 they're only scratched the surface, but again, before we take that deeper dive, I want to

00:32:05.480 know a little bit about the heart of the person, you know, that's behind the activism.

00:32:09.920 So Tanya, who was, who were you before all of the activism?

00:32:14.300 And, you know, what was like, what was little girl Tanya like?

00:32:18.140 Oh, just a very, very different person than I am today.

00:32:21.220 I think like many people, you know, in our childlike characters, as we, as we grow, I

00:32:27.040 was very different from my sister, who is an extrovert and very outgoing. 1.00

00:32:32.820 And so I felt like quite often a shadow and I can feel that way still today.

00:32:38.200 I know that may seem odd because of the position that I hold at Action for Canada, but I, I

00:32:44.060 think that, um, it served me well now that I consider where I am, but I was very shy.

00:32:51.380 I was a peacemaker.

00:32:52.960 I hated strife and injustices.

00:32:55.040 I was even back then an advocate for the underdog.

00:32:58.420 Like if there was a classmate who was not popular, I had a heart to befriend them and make them

00:33:04.160 feel welcome.

00:33:05.540 Um, I became a Christian when I was 12 years old.

00:33:09.200 And although I had attended church with my family, when I was younger, my parents didn't

00:33:15.460 actually become Christians till I was nine years old.

00:33:18.140 And that really had an impact in my life.

00:33:21.420 And so as when I became a Christian at 12 years old, I remember it really affecting my

00:33:27.420 life.

00:33:27.760 I started reading my Bible at night with my little flashlight in bed and I became hungry

00:33:31.980 for the word of God.

00:33:33.200 And it implant, it just planted these solid seeds in my life.

00:33:36.500 And then during my teen years, I began, I know it may seem weird in my teen years, but

00:33:42.400 I began to be concerned for the spiritual health of our nation as foreigners were arriving and 1.00

00:33:49.460 bringing their false gods. 0.63

00:33:52.240 And that may seem strange, but the idols and the teachings, and it just became a defining

00:33:58.480 moment that changed my life later in 2015 when God called me almost in an audible voice,

00:34:05.580 I felt like, to proclaim Canada as a Christian nation.

00:34:08.660 And now we see how critically important that assignment was.

00:34:15.540 But just the fact that I didn't understand why I felt uncomfortable.

00:34:19.140 It wasn't the people themselves.

00:34:20.600 It wasn't that I didn't care for these people, but I just felt a sense that something was wrong.

00:34:26.640 Something was spiritually wrong as they were coming in and opening up the temples.

00:34:32.000 And our traditions were, they started closing church on Sundays, or sorry, they started opening

00:34:39.560 malls on Sundays.

00:34:41.120 And again, that was a hit towards that traditional upbringing that I had had and those cherished

00:34:48.520 family moments.

00:34:50.320 And so just society started taking chips.

00:34:53.160 We've been at this for decades of breaking down what was successful for our nation.

00:34:57.920 So we'll fast forward to say, when you're 18, you've mentioned like your teen years, and

00:35:04.440 you know, you're graduating self.

00:35:06.860 What was she dreaming about?

00:35:08.720 And how does it compare to where you are now?

00:35:10.700 I mean, obviously, we know where you are now.

00:35:12.300 But what were you thinking when you were, when you were a teenager?

00:35:16.060 What you were going to do when you grew up?

00:35:18.360 Well, I think what a lot of girls are thinking about back then, you know, about getting married

00:35:22.420 and having a family and I just, I was one of those young women that really, really wanted

00:35:29.040 children and to have a family and to buy a home.

00:35:31.420 And I think to provide the kind of upbringing my parents had given me, I, and I achieved

00:35:36.820 those goals.

00:35:38.260 But then 10 years ago, it went beyond anything that I could possibly have imagined or even

00:35:43.020 considered I would be involved in.

00:35:45.440 And so I, I would have never imagined at 18 years old that I'd be running a national

00:35:51.180 organization, for instance, and putting what God had given me as these gifts and these passions

00:35:57.700 like into, into real life action.

00:36:01.520 And, you know, at a young mind of 18, I, I, yeah, this, none of this was on my radar back

00:36:06.580 then.

00:36:07.780 So looking back now, do you think that there was any experiences that prepared you for all

00:36:12.780 the things that you're taking on, like the legal battles and stuff?

00:36:14.840 Is there something that stands out that, I know you said you stood up for the underdogs

00:36:18.840 and stuff, but is there something more?

00:36:21.420 Yeah, I, I, oh, okay.

00:36:23.740 So I think my heart for people and justice, it was certainly a driving force and then probably

00:36:31.720 job experiences played a key role.

00:36:35.160 I would probably say, for instance, my job at Costco has helped me in the strangest way.

00:36:40.280 I was talking to somebody about this the other day, how it helped me with the model of forming

00:36:44.640 chapters across Canada.

00:36:47.260 And when I have in my mind, I was the data processing manager.

00:36:52.660 I became, oh, I didn't even know how to use a fax machine or photocopier.

00:36:56.360 When I started at Costco, it was a wonderful opportunity.

00:36:59.980 They only had three warehouses at the time, but I was very organized.

00:37:03.640 And so I used those organizational skills and that helped me to get promoted.

00:37:08.940 And so then I became the assistant traffic manager and data processing manager to the manager.

00:37:14.920 And I had to write policies and procedures.

00:37:17.520 And here I am, you know, writing policies and procedures in a sense and resources for Canadians

00:37:24.180 to use, right?

00:37:25.460 And, and to, to help them to stand in their rights.

00:37:29.820 And so I would say that was something that was a real key role.

00:37:34.260 And then the other thing that I think really helped was the hard times that I went through.

00:37:40.460 And I've mentioned before that I went through, starting in my thirties there, about 20 years,

00:37:45.980 it was like, it was one thing after another.

00:37:49.300 It was, there was death and loss and car accidents and surgeries.

00:37:52.600 And, you know, many people, you know, may be able to relate to those things, but, and also

00:37:59.020 some of the rejections or whatever really toughened me up.

00:38:05.140 And I don't think I would have been able to manage the attacks and backlash had I not been

00:38:12.500 prepared in advance somehow to keep everything in perspective.

00:38:16.120 And I mean that by those things back then, they really took me out.

00:38:21.580 I would be, you know, emotional about them, of course, because you just can't even consider

00:38:27.040 these things happening to you.

00:38:29.160 And then now, as I go through it, I would go back and consider the source, like, who is

00:38:33.320 it that's attacking me?

00:38:34.680 Like, you know, how are they legitimate in any way?

00:38:37.820 And then I would check to see if, for myself as well, a recheck to see, is what I'm saying

00:38:44.000 true?

00:38:45.020 Is it honest?

00:38:46.280 Is it helpful?

00:38:48.360 You know, what is the priority?

00:38:50.200 And when I was able to evaluate the attacks and what they were saying, and I could measure

00:38:55.340 that to the truth in what I was doing, it was a no-brainer.

00:38:59.860 And to be able to have come full circle and have that kind of maturity is definitely something

00:39:04.400 that I needed to be able to run this organization effectively.

00:39:08.680 It's funny how life works that way.

00:39:10.580 You know, things that thicken your skin, you know, leading up to this, it's that statement,

00:39:14.720 you know, built for such a time as this comes to mind when you say that.

00:39:18.100 And I think about, you know, what an inspiration you were for myself and so many others to step

00:39:24.780 into advocacy and the thick skin that we had to get, you know, especially through the course

00:39:29.980 of the last few years.

00:39:31.460 And I realized that I am capable of so much more than what I ever would have realized.

00:39:36.340 There was things that I took on that I just never would have imagined doing some of those

00:39:40.560 things.

00:39:41.020 So when you were feeling called to step into advocacy, what do you think the biggest thing

00:39:47.720 was that you ever had to overcome?

00:39:51.160 Biggest fear?

00:39:53.120 Well, I would think that one of it was public speaking.

00:39:58.560 And then the last thing that I ever, ever wanted to do was like be the owner of an organization

00:40:06.700 or run it.

00:40:08.500 And I remembered when I was working for Costco, again, it kind of goes back to that.

00:40:13.580 I loved being like a second in command.

00:40:16.840 Don't put me at the helm of this ship.

00:40:19.600 And so in 2019, when I was faced with, you know, the opportunity to start an organization,

00:40:28.620 I can tell you that I was on my belly before the Lord and I cried out to him because, of

00:40:35.380 course, I was calling out, that was back in 2019 by the time I was getting everything

00:40:42.520 registered with the government to become a not-for-profit organization.

00:40:47.260 And I was calling out immigration. 1.00

00:40:49.680 I was calling out this radical, violent LGBTQ activist. 1.00

00:40:55.200 And back then, I mean, you would go to an event and, you know, maybe there'd be 25 of

00:40:59.700 us in the building and a whole mob of them outside just filled with such vitriol and hate

00:41:04.420 that, you know, is really quite concerning.

00:41:06.840 And so back then I was considering my family and my home and my welfare.

00:41:12.460 And God just spoke to me and he said, no, I just really want you doing this.

00:41:18.400 And that's one reason why I always say Action for Canada is God breathed.

00:41:21.940 Because if it was up to me, I would have said, no, thank you.

00:41:24.700 I would have been the wind in the sails of somebody else.

00:41:27.160 It's like, no, you do it.

00:41:28.560 I had said that to a couple of people and they were like, no, no, we can't for this

00:41:33.000 reason or that.

00:41:33.840 But I just really felt the need was there.

00:41:36.640 And when I showed up at your rally, actually, in September of 2020, that first rally, and

00:41:42.140 I was going to make this announcement, Danielle, I go back and I watch the video of me being

00:41:46.640 on stage and all.

00:41:47.860 It still brings me to tears when all those people came, you know, to offer their donations.

00:41:53.000 I totally wasn't expecting that.

00:41:55.380 But you could see as I was, I had my little pieces of paper there with my speech on and

00:42:00.080 my hand was shaking.

00:42:01.480 A piece of paper blows out of my hand and inside I'm just melting.

00:42:05.140 I'm in front of 2,000 people.

00:42:07.220 And I was like, oh my goodness, somebody get me out of here.

00:42:10.100 We could all relate, you know, it's like you feel nervous for somebody because you're

00:42:16.340 just like, oh, and it just, it pulled on our heartstrings.

00:42:21.660 You know, it made us all, you were relatable and real.

00:42:25.060 And so I think that was, you know, coming back to that, that's one of the reasons why

00:42:28.820 I wanted to have this interview with you today.

00:42:30.760 And now you've got all of these battles on your plate.

00:42:33.120 So of all of the battles that you, that you fight, what's the one that puts the biggest

00:42:38.340 fire in your belly?

00:42:39.340 If you could only pick one that you had to fight.

00:42:41.500 Oh, oh, it is so many.

00:42:46.600 You know, I've thought of this because people will say, oh, you know, you take on too many

00:42:50.420 issues.

00:42:50.900 I'm like, are you seeing what the government's doing here?

00:42:53.520 And, you know, it's not too many issues.

00:42:56.140 If we have a team of people in the departments who are taking responsibility for those departments,

00:43:02.300 the government is certainly organized and they have the money behind them.

00:43:06.220 But I say we got God on our side.

00:43:09.020 We've got God behind us.

00:43:10.340 And that's why we're having some tremendous wins.

00:43:13.280 But I would have to say right now, the biggest battle and the biggest threat is definitely the

00:43:19.900 threat of is that Islam poses because that is to the safety and security of our nation. 1.00

00:43:24.900 We've seen what they're doing in the UK and, you know, throughout Britain in the UK.

00:43:32.260 And I have been on the front of this battle since 2018 in Canada.

00:43:38.680 And I've written the report, the rise of Islam in Canada and provided the evidence of the threat. 1.00

00:43:44.920 But here is again where we've been conditioned to think about, oh, you know, it's a religion

00:43:49.220 and those nice Muslims and they have a right in our country to for the freedom of religion.

00:43:54.900 And then here it comes back to education again, that no, you don't.

00:43:58.700 There is no such thing as the freedom of religion in Canada to open the door to all these false 1.00

00:44:04.620 gods.

00:44:05.280 It was the freedom of religion for Christianity.

00:44:07.860 And at the time, the charter was written.

00:44:09.540 And I had Brian Peckford on the show December 2024 as the last living signatory to the Charter

00:44:16.700 Rights of Rights and Freedoms to confirm, was this an open door for all of these foreign 1.00

00:44:22.280 belief systems to come in and set up their ideologies here?

00:44:26.560 And he was like, absolutely not.

00:44:28.580 It was to keep the government out of the business of the church.

00:44:32.360 And so this is a re-education that we need to do.

00:44:34.740 And the very fact that Islam is not a religion, it's a way of life.

00:44:39.140 It is a political military system and their strategy, when they're telling you what they're

00:44:46.400 going to do, you need to hear them.

00:44:48.760 And they want world domination and they are doing it.

00:44:51.960 The Koran says that they can use takia, that they can lie and that they are using our human 0.98

00:44:59.100 rights and weaponizing it to advance their agenda.

00:45:02.580 And it's time to say no more.

00:45:03.980 And I'm very thankful to see that the world, the world, the Western world is waking up.

00:45:09.120 Trump is taking huge steps to absolutely shut down Islam.

00:45:13.160 They see that there is no negotiating with them and that as they infiltrate all levels

00:45:20.580 of government, they are implementing Sharia law and that's foreign law.

00:45:25.940 And unless we have a government that's not being paid out by them and benefiting from them,

00:45:30.820 this is the greatest risk that our nation faces right now.

00:45:35.200 And then, of course, the second, but I would say it was like, it's like right here is this

00:45:40.620 fight for our children and to make sure that, of course, the battle to defend their hearts

00:45:48.180 and minds is like, we're not going to stop until we win that one as well, because they're the future.

00:45:53.700 If we don't have functional, instead of all of this dysfunctional kids that are coming out

00:45:58.460 with all their colored hair, overweight, not caring for themselves, showing up in pajamas

00:46:03.680 to the schools, I mean, our nation is lost on that front as well, because they're the future

00:46:08.140 leaders.

00:46:08.980 Meanwhile, China is educating their kids so that they can come in and take over because 1.00

00:46:13.820 that's, you know, another issue.

00:46:15.480 So there's many battles and we're trying to pick them and address them.

00:46:20.060 But that is definitely a major threat to our nation.

00:46:23.480 Yeah, the kids thing for me is a big one.

00:46:25.220 Um, so with everything that you're doing now, you're obviously a huge thorn on the side

00:46:29.620 of the establishment.

00:46:30.980 So what kind of risk factors are involved with everything that you're doing?

00:46:35.160 Are you finding that there's threats around that?

00:46:38.600 Um, you know, I, I think, I think the point is like, when we think about the risk factor,

00:46:46.520 I would have to say, when it comes to it, I believe that God has called me to this mission.

00:46:53.440 I know for a fact that he has.

00:46:55.320 And when he calls us, he'll equip us.

00:46:57.860 And that, uh, fear is a tool of the enemy.

00:47:01.720 Fear is not from God.

00:47:03.380 And so if I walk in the spirit of God, I'm not having the faith, the size of a mountain,

00:47:08.120 like the size of a mustard seed that can move mountains.

00:47:12.080 And, and so that's what I pray for consistently.

00:47:15.000 I like, Lord, give me the faith of a mustard seed so that I can move mountains.

00:47:18.920 And we are doing that.

00:47:20.880 So I don't think about an action that I'm taking and thinking, what will the repercussions

00:47:26.300 of this be?

00:47:27.620 Uh, you know, obviously some things cross my mind and we have to use wisdom as we're moving

00:47:33.080 forward.

00:47:33.520 And we do that by using facts.

00:47:35.560 And, and so when we are going to put a resource or an action together, for instance, to address

00:47:43.160 this, uh, threat of the Muslim brotherhood. 0.99

00:47:45.940 So we are wanting a petition to go forward and a law to go forward to designate the Muslim

00:47:50.720 brotherhood as a terrorist organization in Canada.

00:47:53.320 And, and that's reasonable.

00:47:55.080 And, and so if the other side, if the, the side that's making advancements right now,

00:48:00.000 uh, you know, has any ulterior motives, uh, then, then that's where I just rely on God

00:48:08.240 that he needs to be our protector and have, uh, and to be our guard.

00:48:13.440 So, yeah, it's not that, um, I don't think about those things, uh, at, at some times, but

00:48:19.020 I don't give them enough thought to stop me from continuing to move forward.

00:48:23.380 And especially this battle for our kids, if I'd given up in 2015 or 16, when we were going

00:48:30.260 to these events to try to advise people about SOGI 123, and they were too, way too afraid

00:48:35.580 to, um, offend the LGBT community.

00:48:39.480 And when I compare anything to the word of God, if the word of God is saying that homosexuality 1.00

00:48:45.700 is an abomination, that's a pretty serious, uh, statement and that we've got to understand

00:48:54.500 that when they're going to do this on mass in our schools and then indoctrinate children

00:48:59.700 into these ideologies and twist their minds around and put thoughts in there at, you know,

00:49:05.560 grade five, six or age five, six, seven, eight years old, uh, that's not right.

00:49:10.500 What adults do is their business.

00:49:13.580 And, uh, just like, I don't want to hear what a heterosexual couple is sexually doing in 0.98

00:49:19.100 their bedroom or anywhere else. 0.95

00:49:20.440 I don't want to hear about what gays or lesbians or trans are doing. 1.00

00:49:23.900 I, it, it, and it certainly shouldn't be in our school system.

00:49:27.340 And so we have to step up ferociously and be on the front line.

00:49:31.060 If we're proclaiming a truth, then we've got to stand by that and not really fear the consequences

00:49:36.860 because they will come.

00:49:38.480 And they did.

00:49:39.200 I got criticized.

00:49:40.500 I got attacked.

00:49:41.260 I have a legal action against me for proclaiming the truth and speaking, speaking, um, you

00:49:47.200 know, up against what I feel is an act that is harming children.

00:49:52.120 And now after nearly a decade, the rest of Canada is waking up.

00:49:57.560 And so it was all worth it.

00:49:58.940 And it's going to be the same on every single other issue.

00:50:01.980 And we have been on the front line of these issues and we have been courageously stepping

00:50:07.100 up.

00:50:07.480 And, and, and, and because of that, whether it was regarding UNDRIP or all of the extortion

00:50:12.820 and fraud, uh, with the, uh, government and the United Nations and the World Economic Forum

00:50:19.740 using, uh, Indians.

00:50:21.680 And I'm not talking about Hindus at this point.

00:50:23.760 I'm talking about Canadian Hindus, Hindu, Canadian Indians, indigenous.

00:50:28.380 I don't want to call them that, whatever.

00:50:29.920 Um, but they're using them as pawns in order to steal land and resources so that the globalists 0.98

00:50:37.880 can control it.

00:50:38.720 So why I'm standing up on their behalf too.

00:50:41.420 And I've been attacked for that by Chief Kenny, Chief Ken, whatever his name was in, um, Port

00:50:47.740 Alberni.

00:50:48.780 What?

00:50:49.380 What?

00:50:50.060 And, you know, I was like, I didn't care what he was saying.

00:50:53.700 You can't come, you know, into Port Alberni.

00:50:55.480 It's like, yes, I can.

00:50:56.440 And I'm coming.

00:50:57.080 And we're going to out you and we're going to show you the backroom people, the backroom

00:51:01.200 deals you're making. 1.00

00:51:02.040 You're corrupt and you belong in jail. 0.98

00:51:04.200 And so now I don't always want to proclaim we were right about everything that we've been 0.99

00:51:09.940 on the front line of speaking.

00:51:10.940 I'm saying we weren't wrong and people are finally realizing that.

00:51:14.480 And so I'm, I'm pleased about that.

00:51:16.160 And it's a, it's a great relief.

00:51:18.000 I remember those mid rallies, let's say like maybe a good year in that you started speaking

00:51:23.420 about, you know, the transgenderism agenda and all of that.

00:51:26.740 And I remember Alicia and I were like, can we just stick to masks and COVID?

00:51:31.200 Like, can we just talk about the vaccines?

00:51:33.300 Like we're kind of territory, like not right.

00:51:36.240 People were asking us like, why did you start transitioning from, you know, talking about

00:51:40.580 COVID and the masks and then going into people thought that I was, you know, anti-gay and,

00:51:46.400 you know, we've had gay friends or we've had friends that have had gay children.

00:51:49.880 And it's like, all of a sudden I was like a bigot and I, and it was like, no, I'm protecting

00:51:54.380 them too.

00:51:54.960 Like you have to understand, like when there's one in four kids that identifies as something

00:51:58.940 other than what they're born as, we have an issue because that wasn't an issue when we

00:52:03.020 were in high school or even in elementary school.

00:52:05.300 And now, you know, kids think they're cats and dogs and whatever else.

00:52:09.060 So it's just, I remember you saying like, you know, kids are being taught in kindergarten

00:52:13.280 that they can be a, an animal or a thing or whatever they want to be.

00:52:17.680 And it's just like, you know, you didn't see it so much in the beginning, but then as soon

00:52:20.800 as you started shedding light on it, it became very prevalent that this is a serious issue.

00:52:26.080 And, and I think, you know, there might be a little bit of a shift.

00:52:30.360 My, my husband and I were both saying that, um, the, there's been some construction just

00:52:35.360 down the street from us here and they've redone the sidewalks and they didn't re paint the

00:52:42.620 rainbow sidewalk.

00:52:43.680 And so my husband was talking to his friend at work about that the other day and they

00:52:47.880 said they did the same thing in mission.

00:52:50.320 So I don't know if there's enough people complaining out there, but you know, I think

00:52:55.880 we should be complaining.

00:52:57.180 And, you know, I know there's been times where somebody has gone to go and complain about,

00:53:00.820 uh, the rainbow flag being up at some of the, um, little local municipalities and one single

00:53:07.520 complaint has brought that flag down.

00:53:09.760 So absolutely, I'm really excited that you're saying that because I got to give a shout out

00:53:15.360 to Christina as our, our chapter leader in mission.

00:53:18.860 I'm telling you, she is their worst nightmare as far as the corrupt and, um, yeah, the, uh, 0.99

00:53:26.480 school board and the trustees there are, are just really radical as far as I'm concerned,

00:53:32.580 but the mayor and city council have been receptive to her and respectful to her.

00:53:36.560 And I think that she's finally been heard and our team out there.

00:53:40.560 So that's exciting, but, but that is the thing, right?

00:53:43.080 Is that, um, you know, for our children, I remember kids in school, a couple of them.

00:53:47.640 I think there was two that I knew of that ended up later ending up being gay.

00:53:53.240 And the thing is, is though that also they had also been sexually abused as children.

00:53:59.320 There was a reason for that.

00:54:01.400 And so when the government was bringing in bill C six, originally the conversion therapy

00:54:05.800 ban that, or was it bill C four first, it was one or the other, and there was a reelection

00:54:10.600 and they came back in and it came up as a new bill.

00:54:12.900 They had to retable it as a new bill.

00:54:14.840 And it would, you know, that therapists and parents would get five years in prison if they

00:54:20.400 didn't support their children's delusions and they could no longer get to the root or the

00:54:25.580 bottom of, uh, of it.

00:54:26.920 And that was giving the pedophiles also a free ride, which is exactly what the government

00:54:32.840 Justin Trudeau was doing and minimizing the, uh, the, uh, consequences for criminals and 0.82

00:54:39.760 pedophiles of sexual offenders.

00:54:41.160 And we see how big a problem that is right now.

00:54:44.280 So I knew all those things going into COVID.

00:54:47.000 So how can I be quiet here?

00:54:48.540 I have a stage now of 2000 people and, you know, there were knee jerk reactions from people

00:54:53.460 who were offended by what I had to say.

00:54:55.640 And now it's become mainstream.

00:54:57.340 In fact, those people that were actually mean to me, I would say then all of a sudden got

00:55:02.280 their, uh, you know, own group together to go and, uh, you know, do the justice fight

00:55:07.000 in the battle against SOGI one, two, three.

00:55:09.060 And I, inside, I thought, okay, it would have been nice if they came back and said, yeah,

00:55:12.960 Tanya, we're sorry for the way we treated you, but how I look at it as good, you know,

00:55:17.740 what good luck to you get the message out there, whoever you, you know, can now educate.

00:55:22.480 Yeah, I, I support that and I accept that, but yeah, I've been through a lot, uh, that

00:55:27.000 our team has been, it's not just me.

00:55:28.740 As I say, I've got a whole team behind me.

00:55:31.000 And, uh, the one thing that I've always been so grateful for with them is, is their loyalty

00:55:37.680 to Action for Canada that sometimes they're looking at me thinking, what are you doing,

00:55:43.980 Tanya?

00:55:45.020 Why are you talking about this issue next, right?

00:55:47.720 We just came out of, you know, all of the backlash, say, you know, all of a sudden we're

00:55:52.420 supporting Israel and then people are like, oh, you support Netanyahu and all of this.

00:55:56.520 And we say, no, according to the word of God, we support Israel.

00:55:59.940 And it would be like people not supporting Canada because of Justin Trudeau or Mark Carney.

00:56:04.220 And so we support the state of Israel to exist and defend themselves.

00:56:08.120 And so there was the backlash.

00:56:09.760 And then when we were calling out all the UNDRIP and all of this, there was the backlash.

00:56:14.080 And then finally, you know, a year later, people will understand what the battle is really about

00:56:20.120 because they've been so brainwashed and conditioned by the government and the media.

00:56:23.820 And, you know, and that's why we need help with people sharing our information and becoming

00:56:29.180 chapter leaders so that they will be advocates for change within their own community and a

00:56:33.880 strong, strong voice.

00:56:36.200 Well, there's lots of lots for people to choose from.

00:56:38.220 That's for sure.

00:56:39.600 Pick your beast and just dive in because I think, you know, it's like what you said.

00:56:43.600 You don't focus on what the risks necessarily are, because when you get into something, I know

00:56:48.020 you always talk about putting your blinders on and it's just you get into it and you can't

00:56:52.340 even think about anything else, but just seeing a certain project through and having the injustices

00:56:58.540 brought to light and making a difference in those parts.

00:57:02.480 So I want to take you a little bit more on a personal level now, Tanya.

00:57:06.820 And I know that that's you're a really private person.

00:57:09.300 And so it's not necessarily the easiest thing for you.

00:57:12.180 But I look at, you know, the advocacy work that I've done over the years and I couldn't

00:57:17.640 do a lot of it without my family support and whatnot.

00:57:19.740 And so how do you balance family and home life with everything that you're doing?

00:57:25.960 Well, that's that's a good question.

00:57:29.800 I would imagine like anybody, you know, who's working around, you know, the clock and still

00:57:35.460 trying to have the balance of a family life.

00:57:37.540 But it it's difficult, Danielle.

00:57:43.280 How can I?

00:57:44.920 Yeah, let me collect my thoughts on that and how I would like to answer it is, is that I

00:57:51.640 think that, you know, I'm a certain place in my life where my children are grown and I

00:57:58.420 now have grandchildren and I have another an elderly mom that I'm caring for.

00:58:04.480 And I say caring for her.

00:58:05.540 She's just turned 85.

00:58:07.420 And yet I have so much support from her at the same time.

00:58:10.480 She's one of my greatest cheerleaders and such a support system when I'm sending out

00:58:15.240 a call to action.

00:58:16.360 If I want to get a view of people who aren't familiar with the topic, I'll go.

00:58:20.860 She lives downstairs.

00:58:21.700 There's I've created a beautiful home for her down there and I'll go, mom, and she'll

00:58:26.660 come sit next to me at the desk and she'll sit with me and I'll read to her and then she'll

00:58:32.140 ask me very specific pointed questions where I'm like, she'll go, oh, I'm sorry.

00:58:36.180 I'm sorry.

00:58:36.460 I'm like, no, these are really good questions and it will help me to refine what it is that

00:58:40.760 I'm writing.

00:58:41.920 And so anyways, yeah, so there is that balance.

00:58:46.180 And, you know, with my grandbabies right now, I would just do anything to be able to

00:58:51.700 spend more time with them.

00:58:54.880 It's a hardship and I have to try to reset my priorities and my greatest priority and

00:59:01.140 my family knows that is fighting for this country.

00:59:04.560 So it's not just me making these sacrifices.

00:59:07.400 It's actually my family as well who are, you know, supporting me in the best way that they

00:59:13.140 can.

00:59:13.620 But I got to tell you, sometimes I'm sitting at that desk trying to get one more action,

00:59:18.400 like the call to action that I just mentioned about the churches.

00:59:22.100 As soon as I heard about that, I thought, you son of the guns, you don't have the authority

00:59:25.920 at the government level to do this because it will just be a Supreme Court battle that we

00:59:31.640 will go forward with if they try to criminalize scripture.

00:59:35.280 Because of the way that our nation is built up, this is foundational.

00:59:39.560 They can't criminalize scripture.

00:59:41.040 It's all over our legislature, the parliament buildings, it's etched in, you know, in our

00:59:45.540 buildings, it's in our constitution, the Charter of Rights, in our anthem, everything that we

00:59:52.000 have and the structure of Canada is built on these things.

00:59:55.880 And so it really motivated me in between other things that I was juggling just to get a look

01:00:01.720 at what I'm doing is that the team in Calgary also wanted to get an action out because they

01:00:07.180 raised the Palestinian flag the other day and it's got to be enough of enough of these 1.00

01:00:11.520 things.

01:00:12.020 So then I go in and I'll, I'll edit or help and say, yeah, this is good to go.

01:00:16.160 But at the same time, I was creating this action and then Jenny, our tech person, she's there

01:00:21.580 helping to, you know, create the images.

01:00:24.320 And so our whole team works together.

01:00:26.900 And so, yeah, I worked until midnight the other night to get the call to action ready and

01:00:31.600 then for the team to put it out the next day.

01:00:33.920 And sometimes I'll, sometimes I do, sometimes I break down in tears because I'm tired.

01:00:39.300 I just want to go and take my dog for a walk and, or there was something maybe I needed

01:00:43.760 to go out to the store to get and I don't have that opportunity to do those things.

01:00:47.200 And I feel like I've got a chain around my ankle.

01:00:50.000 But there are some things that we've got the gas pedal down and we're achieving such good

01:00:55.420 things and we can't afford to put our foot on the brake right now.

01:01:00.280 And the achievements and some of the strategy and things that I still can't quite talk about,

01:01:05.740 and this is on national security level, are so terribly important to the future and for

01:01:11.720 our children, for everybody in this nation, that I'm willing to make that sacrifice.

01:01:17.060 But yeah, it is hard at times.

01:01:19.940 Yeah.

01:01:20.120 And I know that you, I've talked to you at times where you're like, I just want to get

01:01:23.000 my gardening done or my housework done.

01:01:24.820 And then that's the midnight shift.

01:01:29.320 So what would you say that this journey has cost you personally?

01:01:32.400 And what's something that people would never guess that you struggle with behind the scenes?

01:01:38.380 Well, yeah, I think basically what I had just mentioned, and it is the balance of, you know,

01:01:46.020 we all have a home and I've been blessed with a home.

01:01:49.060 I've worked very hard for this home and that's one of the reasons I'm extremely frustrated

01:01:53.960 with and angry with the judges who are proclaiming that the Indians have these land rights and

01:02:02.840 it's like, no way this is going to happen.

01:02:04.980 These are frustrations to me and that's where it's like, we got to pick our battles, but we

01:02:08.540 don't have enough lawyers to get on the front line here and have the wherewithal to sometimes

01:02:14.580 structure these legal battles in that way.

01:02:17.980 And so, as you mentioned, like, I just want to go out and do some gardening again.

01:02:22.840 It was like my happy place to be out there gardening.

01:02:26.280 And so I still get out there and cut my lawn and have to rake the leaves.

01:02:30.440 And sometimes that is like literally by the lights of my house or cleaning my house and

01:02:37.640 getting what these simple things could be.

01:02:40.560 My mom, as I mentioned, is 85 and she usually has the grocery list and gets, you know, the 1.00

01:02:46.800 groceries.

01:02:47.620 And so we do a balance and a juggle throughout everybody in the household and just making

01:02:53.160 sure.

01:02:53.900 So, yeah.

01:02:55.000 Is there something that you miss most about your old life?

01:03:00.240 Being able to do those things and then get together with friends.

01:03:05.640 I haven't had a vacation in forever.

01:03:10.200 And I think that, you know, I do look forward to that one day, a well-deserved vacation.

01:03:16.520 And that makes me a little bit emotional right now because I think one of the biggest things

01:03:21.580 that of the sacrificing of time and I don't let it stop me, but it's not to the degree that

01:03:26.880 I would want is building that relationship with my grandkids. 0.95

01:03:30.900 And I'm Nana and my grandson and I, the other one is just two months old and just seeing

01:03:36.880 him develop.

01:03:37.640 But the other one and I, we've got a very extremely special relationship and that comes

01:03:41.740 with investment.

01:03:43.120 And I know that.

01:03:44.240 And I want to be able, you know, to instill in his life all of those values that we need

01:03:55.160 for strong leadership in the country.

01:03:58.480 Being able to make it to church on Sunday.

01:04:01.020 I sometimes get up in the morning and I'm so exhausted on a Sunday, but I love the fellowship.

01:04:07.660 And so I make sure that I go.

01:04:09.120 And so those are some of the things that, you know, I would like and not having the amount

01:04:16.740 of stress level consistently on our plate every day.

01:04:21.640 And that's why I don't know how people do it who aren't Christians, because I get up

01:04:26.780 every when I wake up every morning, I absolutely pray and I put the armor of God on the helmet

01:04:33.360 of salvation and the breastplate of righteousness, the belt of truth and the shoes of peace and the

01:04:38.780 sword of the spirit, which is the word of God and to carry the shield of faith.

01:04:43.100 And so I know that when I'm really frustrated, I'm done moments, I can call up the team

01:04:47.420 members and I say, yeah, can you pray for me today or for them with us?

01:04:51.480 We carry this load and prayer really changes things.

01:04:56.440 And it's a reset.

01:04:58.040 And I always say, Lord, give me the fire in my belly.

01:05:00.980 You know what?

01:05:01.620 Give me the fire in my belly every day.

01:05:03.400 And there's a couple of times where that fire was just dim and I was feeling it.

01:05:08.460 And then the Lord will say, I want you to just rest for a day.

01:05:11.580 And then, boom, that fire comes back just faithfully the next day and I'm up and running

01:05:17.120 again.

01:05:18.240 And so, you know, I appreciate everybody's prayers.

01:05:22.700 That's where the shift in the changes is coming to change the hearts and minds of people.

01:05:26.180 But it also helps everybody.

01:05:28.260 And it's not just Action for Canada.

01:05:30.060 There's other amazing leaders out there who are doing good work and fighting a good fight.

01:05:33.480 And, yeah, yeah.

01:05:35.720 So those are some of the things that, you know, maybe people would not understand or know that

01:05:41.180 goes on the background.

01:05:42.040 It's not just with me.

01:05:42.920 It's with other team members.

01:05:44.460 We have several team members that have been diagnosed with cancers.

01:05:49.620 And, you know, not only are those key people in key positions that are helping this little

01:05:57.060 Gideon's army, keeping this ship afloat and going, but these people have become family,

01:06:02.320 people that we love very, very dearly.

01:06:05.860 And so those are other things, you know, that happen.

01:06:09.520 And then when there's attacks from without, but if they come from within, it's not attacked,

01:06:15.680 but some of our chapter leaders have gotten worn out.

01:06:19.400 And so we're looking for new chapter leaders where we're so incredibly grateful for the

01:06:24.920 years that they stayed with Action for Canada.

01:06:28.500 But it's hard to replace because so many people are not making the time to get on the

01:06:32.460 front line and battle with us.

01:06:34.420 But God continues to bless us.

01:06:36.260 And that's what our team counts on.

01:06:37.580 Well, it takes me back to, I think it would be a miss if we didn't go into a certain area

01:06:43.080 and it was something that we went through together.

01:06:45.720 And that was when, you know, when COVID hit, like I said, you were such a beacon of light

01:06:49.120 for so many people and you had a ton of support.

01:06:52.120 People believed in your mission.

01:06:53.800 They donated, the legal action started to take flight and then something changed.

01:06:58.720 People that once supported you started to lend their ear to some bad apples in the movement,

01:07:02.960 which created a lot of misconceptions, I think, about you and your

01:07:07.520 legal counsel.

01:07:08.860 And it was almost like a bit of a witch hunt to knock both you and Rafa off your game,

01:07:12.860 I think.

01:07:13.980 And you were criticized.

01:07:15.740 You were slandered, attacked.

01:07:17.740 And funny enough, many of those voices have now disappeared or fled or quietly backed away.

01:07:23.700 And like you said, a lot of people don't humble themselves to apologize even when they

01:07:27.200 start to see this themselves.

01:07:28.300 But you're still here and you never left and you never stopped fighting and your lawsuit

01:07:34.660 is still active in the courts.

01:07:37.000 So I want to give you the space just to speak from your heart about how all that affected

01:07:43.060 you and also give you the chance to clear up any misconceptions that people might still

01:07:48.320 think about you and your work.

01:07:49.740 Yeah, you know, I think in the one part, part of it hurt because I'm such a woman of integrity

01:07:55.980 and I'm uncompromising.

01:07:58.700 And the fact that somebody would have a smear campaign out there about me, you know, at

01:08:04.320 first it was a bit of a sting.

01:08:05.600 But I think, Danielle, the bottom line is that it made me more frustrated that people could

01:08:13.380 be so ignorant as to spread the lies, not because of how it affected me, but because

01:08:18.840 they were deceiving others and causing further division and strife at a time that we needed 0.96

01:08:24.800 to be focused on working together as a united front.

01:08:27.600 And as if people weren't going through enough by it's like, oh, you got to wear a mask, you

01:08:33.320 got to take this test, you're going to lose your job.

01:08:35.380 Stand six feet apart.

01:08:36.580 And it was all based on complete and utter fraud and misinformation.

01:08:42.580 And so you've got people on the front line like Rocco and myself who were fighting ferociously

01:08:49.080 and trying to bring hope and trying to facilitate Canadians to stand in their rights.

01:08:57.580 And you had somebody foolishly coming alongside you and trying to undermine the work that we

01:09:03.520 were doing.

01:09:04.000 And so I was also upset that I had put everything on the line when I took this case on and retained

01:09:10.320 Rocco.

01:09:11.260 It was a big, big deal to raise the funds that were necessary to do a constitutional challenge.

01:09:17.200 Like, I'm that person that grew up that was very meticulous with my funds.

01:09:22.200 My brother and sister, when we were younger, they would, we got an allowance.

01:09:26.020 And if they needed to borrow money from me, right, it's kind of funny to think about.

01:09:30.240 But that followed me into my adulthood.

01:09:31.860 I've been very, very responsible with my finances.

01:09:35.860 And I made, you know, that decision that when I launched Action for Canada, that I was going

01:09:43.140 to treat the funds, these precious funds that are coming in from Canadians like as if that was my own. 0.98

01:09:49.660 And so for them to be maligning Rocco and myself and stupid, stupid things that, juvenile things that they would say, it was, it frustrated me. 0.97

01:10:03.100 And, you know, for that matter, but of course, we needed to raise these funds in order to commence. 0.98

01:10:09.180 And they were all in line with the cost of constitutional challenge because I had gone to other lawyers and it was all in line, the cost that Rocco had charged with everybody else, with other lawyers.

01:10:21.520 And so in spite of them, we raised the funds, as you know, and because of your incredible help, like we were, you know, out to every single rally, as I say, and rain and sleet and snow and all the rest of it.

01:10:36.340 And in those first months, I had to raise half the funds.

01:10:39.780 And we'd managed to do that from December, from September, 2020 to December, 2020, because Rocco wouldn't proceed because if you couldn't raise the funds, like how do you plan on, you know, proceeding with this?

01:10:52.140 And so in spite of them, we raised the funds and I just, you know, I refused to respond to the attacks on social media.

01:10:59.080 It was a distraction as far as I was concerned, and I needed to remain focused on the battle.

01:11:03.820 And really, I didn't have time to respond to people who were acting like a bunch of childhood delinquents in those, you know, the mean schools, the mean kids in junior high school.

01:11:13.880 That's where I say before, like I really had to, you know, keep a proper perspective on things.

01:11:19.300 And A for C, yeah, yeah, we, you know, we stood the test of time.

01:11:23.560 And I think, I think that my character and that of our team have come out on the other side with our reputations intact.

01:11:29.600 And, yeah, so I'm really happy about, really happy about where we, where we are at right now.

01:11:36.240 How did that affect your, your fundraising though, Tanya, with all of that?

01:11:39.040 Oh.

01:11:39.460 I mean, you can personally take the weight of that.

01:11:41.760 Like, I know you took a lot on the chin, but how did that affect Action for Canada?

01:11:46.620 Well, yeah, it did.

01:11:48.080 It's really affected Rocco and his firm, of course, because he's taken on so many and he's still got the government, is it the healthcare workers?

01:11:57.300 And he did an appeal recently and everybody was blown away by, you know, how he had conducted himself in court.

01:12:04.900 And so it's going to be pretty hard for these three appeal court judges.

01:12:08.260 And apparently one he had known way back, I think, when he was going to school.

01:12:12.840 So it will be based on corruption, I believe, if he ends up losing that case.

01:12:17.460 But when I was going through that, yeah, the, the, the fundraising super, super slowed down.

01:12:25.420 But within a year, exactly a year to the date, we had raised all the funds necessary in spite of these wicked, wicked people.

01:12:34.640 And there was some times when it, you know, because of what that individual is doing, and I'm not even going to acknowledge his, his name right now, because he was obviously, you know, possibly a government operative, maybe paid out or just so filled with arrogance and pride.

01:12:52.600 I don't know, you know, what fueled these people, but either way, it was destructive.

01:12:57.060 And yeah, they're nowhere to be found now.

01:12:59.860 And they were raising lots of money.

01:13:02.580 And the one guy was, you know, flying on airplanes back and forth across Canada, and everybody's dying, selling his t-shirts and really doing literally nothing to help Canadians in the long run.

01:13:17.520 And so that's, I had to, it was hard going through that season.

01:13:20.500 And there were people that were demanding their funds back for me, because these individuals had convinced them that Rocco wasn't doing his job.

01:13:29.900 And when we look at the courts and see even what they're doing right now, in trying to delay us from getting in just simply to address the motion to strike, we had a date for October 20th of this year.

01:13:43.280 And next thing you know, the, the lawyers are on strike.

01:13:46.440 Well, how convenient is that?

01:13:48.020 And then the strike lifted days before we were supposed to be in court.

01:13:51.680 And now we're trying to get a court date to, and they said, oh, you got a call by, the court said, you got a call by November 12th to set a date for January.

01:13:59.220 Rocco gets in contact with them.

01:14:00.800 And so, oh, no dates available.

01:14:02.640 And so then next thing you know, now we have to wait for December 12th in order to set a date for February.

01:14:07.800 And so how could the public possibly criticize us?

01:14:11.160 And, you know, yeah, they want to criticize, you know, Rocco for having a 391 page statement of claim, fill your boots.

01:14:19.540 But if you're not happy with it, then don't support us.

01:14:22.520 If you are, then just have the peace of mind to know that we're fighting as hard as we can against very, very corrupt, evil, murderous individuals that, you know, even the COVID jab that continues to maim and kill people, including children, to this day.

01:14:41.500 And they're still in BC, I don't know if in other provinces, but BC is still promoting the COVID jabs.

01:14:49.200 And so what do they expect, that we're going to just walk into court first time and be able to win that case?

01:14:57.240 No, they're going to put up as many blocks as possible, and that's what they did.

01:15:01.180 And so, yeah, you know, it was very difficult and upsetting going through that season because I knew without a shadow of a doubt in my mind,

01:15:10.440 the character of Rocco and how hard he was fighting and how hard our team were fighting, as well as providing the notices of liability, which kept 45,000 teachers and school staff working in BC and had the same effect in Alberta and in other provinces.

01:15:26.460 So shame on them. That's all I can say.

01:15:29.040 That's all I can say.

01:15:29.880 That's another curtain we could pull back on another day, you know, but it's like all the extras and the over and above that Rocco did that people don't even know about.

01:15:37.260 Oh, yeah.

01:15:37.580 There was a lot that he threw in that, you know, wasn't even part of, you know, the funds that were raised and whatnot.

01:15:44.120 No, and to know, too, that he has twin boys, and to know that the one boy is vaccine injured, or I don't even want to call it a vaccine, that was the childhood immunization.

01:15:54.420 So he was already working with Ted Kuntz from Vaccine Choice Canada in 2019, if not before then, to shed light on the fact that these immunizations are harmful.

01:16:09.140 And when I was talking to Rocco recently, he put things again into a proper perspective that prior to all of this COVID fraud and this bioweapon that, you know, they implemented on the mass populations, is that vaccine hesitancy, so-called vaccine hesitancy, like, was one or two percent.

01:16:31.700 And now CBC was reporting that there's like a 75 percent of people support vaccinations.

01:16:40.500 Well, that means then that now vaccine hesitancy has risen to 30 percent, and that is a huge win-win.

01:16:48.300 It's a huge win for our children.

01:16:50.020 It's all the less children that are going to be diagnosed with autism, which we know 100 percent is tied to childhood immunizations or whatever, you know, you want to call these shots.

01:17:01.280 They're definitely not for the benefit of our children.

01:17:03.320 And so we're winning, even though we're not in court yet.

01:17:06.700 And so that's worth repeating.

01:17:09.440 Rocco definitely had skin in the game, and I think that's probably something a lot of people didn't know.

01:17:14.840 Can I ask how much money you've raised this year so far and what your expenses have been this year?

01:17:20.500 Oh, yeah.

01:17:20.920 So between all of the different costs to keep these cases going, because we had appeal costs on the COVID case, and then, of course, this new case with Tyson Cook came up.

01:17:34.260 And so in total for that, I have, we've spent $40,000, and one of that, 20 of that was to put forward our SLAP application in September.

01:17:45.600 And so $70,000 in total so far this year.

01:17:52.180 So you're out a little bit of money, I would say.

01:17:54.780 Yeah, I think it's hard to say.

01:17:56.860 I would say that we've raised somewhere around $25,000 when I've put out those appeals.

01:18:02.640 You know, I'm a bit confused by this, Danielle.

01:18:05.380 I know there was this whole ostrich fiasco that took place, and I ended up hearing that a business owner had given them $100,000.

01:18:14.460 And we've never had anything like that in all the years that we've been operating.

01:18:20.060 And, you know, to have a business owner drop $100,000 on Action for Canada would be a very, very welcome event.

01:18:28.660 And because, you know, we've been, we're doing so much more.

01:18:32.320 We're doing so much more, I would have to say, than any other organization.

01:18:37.220 A lot more rods in the fire, for sure.

01:18:38.640 Yeah, and a lot of people, when they donate, if they do e-transfer or stripe, it's not, they can't necessarily designate saying this is for the legal action.

01:18:48.600 So we would just take it that we would see a boost in giving.

01:18:51.780 And then we've also seen overall that giving has slowed.

01:18:55.840 That could be because of the economy or because the noose is, you know, not quite as tight right now around people's necks.

01:19:03.920 Yet it is, and it has been their strategy, bring COVID on and then, you know, put the restrictions in place, loosen the restrictions, put more restrictions in place.

01:19:14.040 This is a game, this mental psyop that they have been, you know, administering against all of the citizens of Canada.

01:19:23.000 And right now the noose is very tight.

01:19:25.320 They're flooding us with mass immigration, impoverishing our nation, trying to take away our guns, bringing in, we are a hotbed for terrorism. 1.00

01:19:33.860 And yet they think now is the time that maybe they could stop giving that $10 or $20 a month to Action for Canada.

01:19:39.920 And we continue whether we're receiving those funds or not.

01:19:43.580 And so I would really like to emphasize, you know, please consider not only donating, it's the end of the year.

01:19:50.280 We're not a charitable organization, although we are now pursuing that.

01:19:53.600 I've had a wonderful gentleman who has said, you know, I'd like to help you become a charitable organization if we will qualify.

01:19:59.960 And so we're looking at doing that.

01:20:01.920 But many business owners want to get that exemption.

01:20:04.980 Many people want to get that tax exemption at the end of the year.

01:20:08.200 And it's like, you know, what is your freedom worth right now?

01:20:11.120 Now, if you were going to give $10,000 to Action for Canada as a business, I'd be happy if you kept three and gave a seven.

01:20:17.580 Whatever it's going to take to help facilitate all of these hardworking people on our team.

01:20:23.240 Even if we could give somebody on our team $250 a month to keep up and do the hard work that they're doing in our community to save this country, I think that that is, you know, extremely valid.

01:20:36.700 What I said, like at the beginning of this was, you know, why I got emotional is because I think about, you know, the people who had lost their jobs and or were on the brink of losing their jobs.

01:20:46.440 And they flooded the stage with their spare change and everything they had because they knew that their freedom was so much more important than the pennies in their pocket.

01:20:56.980 And that was why you gave them so much hope, Tanya, because it was, what else were we going to do?

01:21:02.520 And I think people have become complacent now.

01:21:04.700 And it's, you know, if we, if we choose complacency over freedom, we're never going to win this.

01:21:12.540 And certainly one person can't take this on their shoulders.

01:21:15.140 No.

01:21:15.360 So why do you continue to do what you do and what drives you to keep going when things get hard?

01:21:21.740 Well, I, yeah, I would.

01:21:27.740 Well, there again, I would have to say, Danielle, it's because we are at war.

01:21:35.220 And it is a very untraditional war.

01:21:38.600 There are others.

01:21:40.720 Hitler. 0.57

01:21:41.700 Hitler commenced his war against the people this way with a PSYOP. 0.91

01:21:45.760 He targeted a group of people and he commenced a type of war that eventually countries around the world felt that they had to participate in.

01:21:55.020 But this war isn't the one where we've got bombs dropping around us.

01:21:58.700 The bombs are different.

01:21:59.480 We've got our, our children are absolutely, their lives are being destroyed.

01:22:04.800 You know, the, the fact that they're taking their own lives because they have been convinced that they were born in the wrong body, for instance.

01:22:14.820 And, and these radical activists are trying to say to parents, do you want a dead daughter or a live son?

01:22:21.600 In other words, if their daughter wants to identify as, as, as a boy, you know, that they should support this lunacy and this delusion.

01:22:29.720 And then in the end, the kids go through the puberty blockers, which, which does havoc on their emotions and their system, which puts them into depression.

01:22:38.800 So they have to have antidepressants in order to keep these kids in this state of delusion.

01:22:44.840 And then when these kids now have had their body mutilated or have been sterilized or grown a beard as a girl, and now they're an adult realizing that they've been had.

01:22:54.580 And, and those individuals are then so depressed that they're taking their own lives.

01:22:58.560 So this is the kind of war we're facing.

01:23:00.540 We're facing the war that, you know, there, there was a mash mass forced abortion. 0.89

01:23:05.660 I'm going to say where young mothers during COVID were convinced to take this jab only to find out that there, they had miscarriages on mass.

01:23:17.800 And, and of course that was population control as well.

01:23:21.580 And we've got, I was watching a show last night that I like to, sorry, that's my dog.

01:23:27.540 She sits by me.

01:23:28.500 That's another one I get support from is my big girl here is a, is, is, is a show where they, all of a sudden they were sneaking in how these kids, oh, you know, were in, it was a show about hospital workers and, and trying to normalize youth having heart problems.

01:23:48.920 That's what Hollywood is doing.

01:23:51.040 It isn't normal for kids to have heart problems.

01:23:53.360 That is because of this bioweapon that they used against them.

01:23:58.000 And so many people dying, you know, that's the war.

01:24:01.680 And this is why Action for Canada has remained on the front line.

01:24:05.600 And, and so that, what I looked at, I said, we are at war.

01:24:08.320 I've got children and grandchildren.

01:24:10.560 And I don't know what more to say.

01:24:12.960 We can't stop until the tyrants and traitors are removed and held to account.

01:24:18.080 Yeah.

01:24:18.200 I don't think I'll ever stop either.

01:24:20.560 What would you want people to remember you for?

01:24:22.960 I think, um, I think it would be for proclaiming that Canada is a Christian nation and that they would understand.

01:24:52.960 How critically important it is to our freedoms and democracy and to pass that gift on to the next generation so that this doesn't happen again.

01:25:03.120 If we cared about the elected officials, if they were men of honor and men of God, and that it wasn't just by word, but it was how they conduct their life.

01:25:12.120 If people actually cared about the character of the people that run running for office, if the church would rise up and from within the church support good godly leaders, men and women to run for office, we would have never been in this position.

01:25:26.940 We would have never opened, allowed businesses across the nation to open on Sundays.

01:25:32.640 We would have had that true day of rest.

01:25:34.840 We wouldn't have allowed prayer to be removed from school.

01:25:38.360 We would have started, remained, you know, opening the school day with prayer, the Lord's Prayer.

01:25:44.760 We would not have removed prayer from government.

01:25:48.320 They used to, you know, pray before the legislature began.

01:25:52.940 And so, yeah, I guess that would be it.

01:25:58.640 Well, it's funny because I think you just answered my next question because I was going to ask you.

01:26:01.800 I said if everything you're fighting for became reality tomorrow, what would Canada look like?

01:26:06.200 But I think you just described it.

01:26:07.940 It would.

01:26:08.600 Yeah, that God would once again guide government and that prayer and biblical teaching would return to the education system so that we had strong future leaders.

01:26:18.780 Now, my last question, Tanya, is that I know that you've built this amazing family support network around you with your team.

01:26:28.040 Is there anything that you would like to address with them?

01:26:32.320 Oh, to my team?

01:26:33.360 Mm-hmm.

01:26:34.420 Well, just to recall that from 2015 to 2019, I was literally a one-person show through my own emails, you know, just putting out these call-to-action campaigns and desperately, desperately trying to alert Canadians of all the corruption and what was coming.

01:27:03.060 And so just that I love them from the bottom of my heart that this army, this army has risen, you know, across the nation, that we formed this core team, that the chapter leaders have risen up, that our volunteers across Canada, you know, are participating.

01:27:22.440 And so I could have never achieved any of this on my own.

01:27:26.760 And they're like family to me, and I'm proud of them.

01:27:29.680 And they're all using their God-given gifts and talents.

01:27:33.440 And they're going above and beyond in every way.

01:27:40.880 And even wearing different hats than we need to, like when to pick up the slack or when somebody is sick and can no longer be with the team, it's, it's, as I said before, it's a small Gideon's army.

01:27:52.900 I've said action for Canada is God-breathed.

01:27:55.360 And we're achieving all of these great things because I know because God is with us.

01:28:00.520 And I just literally know I've prayed over the years and I continue to pray we're going to be launching our chapter mission again at the beginning of January, 2026.

01:28:11.960 And we are praying for God to speak to people, to join Action for Canada, and to lead with us.

01:28:20.800 And so we look forward to building our family.

01:28:25.440 But to them, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

01:28:29.660 Tanya, you are one special lady in your team.

01:28:33.660 I'm just, gratitude is just not even a strong enough word to express for everything that you and your team do.

01:28:40.760 And I want to thank you for allowing me to do this with you today.

01:28:45.500 And see, it wasn't so bad.

01:28:46.760 I think it's important for people to be able to see the heartbeat behind the mission.

01:28:53.140 So I'm really thank you for opening up and being vulnerable with us today.

01:28:57.040 And you honestly define leadership and what it means to be a true patriot.

01:29:01.220 So thank you for standing in the gap for all of us and never giving up.

01:29:06.000 And I will go ahead and say something and not something else I wanted to say to everybody else who is listening.

01:29:11.500 You go ahead. You go ahead.

01:29:12.680 Well, I just wanted to say that tonight wasn't just a look back on what's been done.

01:29:19.240 It was a reminder of what can still be achieved when ordinary people choose to do extraordinary things, Tanya.

01:29:26.020 Every moment, every movement in history started with a few people who refused to stay silent and who refused to run.

01:29:33.920 And I just want to say to everyone who's watching, if Tanya has ever stood up for something that you cared about, if her courage has inspired you, and if you believe that the work must continue, then I want to ask you to consider standing beside her tonight to help fuel these missions.

01:29:54.060 Not next week and not someday, tonight.

01:29:57.140 The future of this country is all of our responsibility.

01:30:01.360 Complacency is our worst enemy, as I said before.

01:30:04.920 There are three ways that anybody can get involved, and that is time, talent, and treasure.

01:30:11.320 And Action for Canada has the ability to rally Canadians across the country, but we need more volunteers to push back in their own towns and municipalities.

01:30:19.280 There are so much, there's so much work that needs to be done, and when we all share the load, we can move mountains.

01:30:27.180 So if you've been thinking about getting involved, but weren't sure where to start, just know this.

01:30:32.600 Tanya and her team provide all the tools and guidance to help you make an impact right in your own corner of the world, with chapters in so many communities across the country, but they still need more.

01:30:43.120 So when it comes to talent, maybe you're a connector, an influencer, or you have a skill set that can help the team.

01:30:51.380 God gave you gifts not to keep to yourself, but to share with others.

01:30:55.860 So please reach out, or just start sharing and getting the word out about the work that is taking place.

01:31:02.500 Never underestimate the power of your voice.

01:31:05.660 You can start by sharing this video too.

01:31:07.520 Maybe we can find one of those big business tycoon investors to help you out, Tanya.

01:31:11.580 And then lastly, we know that times are getting tight right now.

01:31:16.660 The cost of groceries, fuel, and taxes is almost out of hand.

01:31:22.100 Yet the fate of millions of people is resting on the shoulders of just a select few.

01:31:27.020 Action for Canada needs our help now, and whether you can give $5, $50, or $500, every contribution strengthens these battles and keeps the mission alive.

01:31:36.640 Think back to September 2020, on the steps of the art gallery in Vancouver.

01:31:42.600 Many people had already lost their jobs or feared that they would, but there was a spirit of generosity and unity that brought hope.

01:31:50.380 And that hope came from collective action.

01:31:53.920 Tanya stepping forward to share her vision.

01:31:56.460 The first person running up on the stairs to donate that $100, which sparked a wave of support that inspired so many others.

01:32:04.080 So, what Tanya and Action for Canada team are taking on right now is much like David taking on Goliath, as you said before.

01:32:13.900 One small boy armed with courage, faith, and a single stone that brought down a giant.

01:32:19.460 And that giant today is the government.

01:32:21.720 The battles ahead are immense, but as my friend once said, Alicia, she said,

01:32:29.480 when we all come together, there is no stopping us.

01:32:35.960 So, please consider sending a donation, reaching out to volunteer, and also sharing this interview for all to see.

01:32:46.400 Tanya, is there anything that you want to sign off with before we go?

01:32:49.620 Well, Danielle, I want to thank you so much.

01:32:53.180 You had to convince me to do this interview tonight because I was nervous about it.

01:32:58.360 I don't like being in the spotlight on this side.

01:33:00.600 I like asking the questions and doing actions.

01:33:03.960 And it was time to get real tonight.

01:33:06.000 And I just thank you for your friendship and your support.

01:33:08.700 And I just thank God for all of these wonderful connections that have been made and these new friendships that have grown out of the ashes.

01:33:18.240 And I just look forward to all the work ahead and where we're going to go from here and where we'll be next December.

01:33:24.880 We might do this again next December.

01:33:27.280 We'll see.

01:33:28.400 And so, thank you.

01:33:29.300 Thank you, everybody, for joining us.

01:33:30.920 In closing, I am going to just go to mention who our next week guest is.

01:33:38.700 It's going to be another ferocious warrior as well, our good friend, Barry Neufeld.

01:33:42.600 He's been through the ringer, and he had his final court date on Monday.

01:33:47.740 And we're going to hear his story.

01:33:48.880 And the title I've given it is A Warrior's Call to Men, and we need everybody to rise up.

01:33:54.480 And then our scriptures for tonight, I think, are very appropriate from John 3.16, when I said I was reading the Bible as a little girl.

01:34:03.720 This is the first verse that I memorized.

01:34:06.160 And it says,

01:34:06.540 For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.

01:34:14.960 And then the next verse builds on this, and it's John 16.33.

01:34:19.380 And as I said, that is what fuels me.

01:34:32.040 I don't have to be concerned, because I know that God is with me.

01:34:36.760 And the next verse is from 1 John 4.4.

01:34:39.820 Greater is he that is in me than he who is in this world.

01:34:44.100 And that, again, is one that gives me great courage and power, because I am walking in Christ Jesus.

01:34:50.120 He is with me.

01:34:51.840 And then the very last one is one of my favorite.

01:34:54.000 I have repeatedly said this from Galatians 6.9, and in closing,

01:34:58.200 Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up.

01:35:05.440 And so I thank all of you for your support for Action for Canada.

01:35:09.480 And I just thank all of you for your support and your ongoing support and, you know, sharing our information and to social media, your financial support and your prayers.

01:35:19.920 And I pray that you have an amazing holiday season as we come up, and we're all going to be taking a break,

01:35:26.320 and that you'll be ready to get right back with us in 2026 as we launch the chapters and a new season of actions as we fight to overturn the corruption,

01:35:37.160 and as we fight to elevate God once again in this country.

01:35:41.340 So, Danielle, thank you so much, my friend.

01:35:44.540 And to all of you, God bless you, and God bless Canada.

01:35:48.920 Thank you, Tanya, for everything you do.

01:35:50.200 Thank you.

01:35:56.320 That's what I've got to say.

01:35:57.820 Look at this crowd.

01:36:02.460 I'm going to thank God and God alone for the ground that I'm standing on.

01:36:13.440 I'm going to thank our founding fathers for giving their lives and sacrificing so much for our freedom.

01:36:21.920 And I'm calling on you today.

01:36:28.220 Don't put them to shame.

01:36:30.500 Don't waste what they did.

01:36:32.740 We have guaranteed rights in this country.

01:36:43.060 We are putting chapters across the nation.

01:36:46.720 We are going to be in every town and every city,

01:36:49.640 and we are going to build communities within these communities of like-minded people

01:36:54.940 who are actually going to care for one another again and love on each other

01:36:58.800 and give each other the help when they're down.

01:37:02.120 We are going to use the teams and the people that build within chapters to support our businesses.

01:37:09.700 The government's actions are completely, 100% unlawful.

01:37:15.380 Judgment will again be found on justice, and those with virtuous hearts will pursue it.

01:37:24.540 You have a virtuous heart if you are here today pursuing freedom and righteousness.

01:37:30.800 God says he will turn the sins of evil people back on them.

01:37:42.160 He will destroy them for their sins.

01:37:46.300 I take great comfort in that because I serve a mighty, living God who has allowed us to go through this season of discomfort

01:37:59.280 because we as a nation have turned our backs on him, and we need to get right.

01:38:05.560 So I am just going to thank you so much.

01:38:10.180 I'm going to say God bless you and God bless Canada.

01:38:13.980 From coast to coast we stand so tall

01:38:17.700 We love our God we give our all

01:38:21.080 And every thought all big or small

01:38:24.640 Together we win it all

01:38:27.700 We fight for freedom and for rights

01:38:31.540 Which they turn darkness into light

01:38:35.000 In every heart we feel his might

01:38:38.460 And through his love we win the fight
