Summary

In this episode, I sit down with my good friend and former colleague, Stuart Pritchard, to talk about the horrific crimes against humanity carried out by the media and the lack of accountability for it. We talk about what we can do to hold the media accountable for what they do, and what we should do about it.


Transcript

00:00:00.000 My father was in a long-term care facility, same restrictions.
00:00:05.760 I hesitated too long.
00:00:07.480 My father came down with major acute renal failure, and he had the classic symptoms.
00:00:17.540 What they did is they gave him a PCR test, and it came back positive.
00:00:22.460 And I asked him why on earth they did that and what good that did for him.
00:00:26.480 But so when I finally saw my dad, I was hesitating because of the restrictions.
00:00:33.700 And when I ended up seeing him, they went through the whole thing again with the restrictions.
00:00:40.780 And they locked the doors usually, so you have to make an appointment to see them.
00:00:44.640 I just barged right through and found out that my dad was comatose.
00:00:49.000 So it was the last time I saw my dad.
00:00:50.880 So, and then when my dad passed away the next day, they said that he was, like, it was COVID.
00:01:01.260 On the death certificate, it was COVID.
00:01:03.300 So I said then he's going to have to have an autopsy.
00:01:07.600 But then they made it pneumonia instead.
00:01:09.880 So I think after the fact, I'm probably going to see if I can, you know, have action against that.
00:01:16.920 I'm so sorry to hear about your dad, and these are the egregious crimes against humanity that we're talking about.
00:01:23.060 It's all been so unnecessary, and they've treated our elderly worse than prisoners who have committed heinous crimes.
00:01:30.360 So what's your question?
00:01:33.580 My question is, what can we do?
00:01:35.980 Like, we had the Coutts, we have actually someone in the family that went to Coutts, and they actually, the media misreported what happened.
00:01:46.760 It was a horrific story, what happened there.
00:01:49.580 So that's another issue.
00:01:51.040 But the media misreported it.
00:01:53.620 What can we do for the media to make them accountable for what they're doing, because they're all so implicit in this?
00:02:01.420 I would start writing your own notices of liability and going after the media as well.
00:02:08.240 And when I say writing your own, because there's a whole lot of law you can go after them.
00:02:13.120 But the reality is the media are not, they don't have any liability exemptions or anything else for what they're doing.
00:02:20.180 If you are misrepresenting things and scaring people and everything else, that falls under the Canadian Criminal Code 83.01, which is terrorism, because it's an ideologically motivated act of putting people in fear or what have you.
00:02:36.840 And so go lay charges, or at least serve a notice of liability.
00:02:41.060 There's no corporate liability for any of these things.
00:02:44.060 It's all individual liability.
00:02:45.460 So it's the editor that makes the decision.
00:02:47.680 It's the reporter who puts out the report, et cetera.
00:02:50.720 It's their personal liability.
00:02:52.720 We just need to go after them and hold them accountable.
00:02:55.540 And we've got to be willing to be aggressive.
00:02:58.600 You know, rabbits are passive, but everything eats them.
00:03:03.660 We need people to go out and be willing to get in their face.
00:03:08.240 You cannot be good unless you're willing to fight.
00:03:12.200 Sitting back and letting people get abused doesn't work.
00:03:15.200 So, yeah, I mean, this is the thing.
00:03:18.380 There's lots of canned notice of liabilities.
00:03:20.840 But if you go into the Criminal Code and go after them for what they are, you just serve them as liability, right?
00:03:25.940 This is the liability.
00:03:26.880 You could serve 10 years in prison.
00:03:29.140 Your choice.
00:03:30.060 And I'm going to come after you.
00:03:31.300 Yeah.
00:03:32.380 Build a team and go after them.
00:03:34.680 Yeah.
00:03:35.000 I was going to add, Jane, that we do have a notice of liability that I launched back in the fall.
00:03:42.780 And we bring the Criminal Code into that and the violations.
00:03:46.680 And we bring in what their duties are in ethics as far as reporting is concerned.
00:03:53.120 And so, like Stuart has said, you go after the editor, you go after the reporter.
00:03:58.600 We have it where you can list the article so that you have to copy this.
00:04:04.680 You have to record it.
00:04:05.760 You have to make sure that you're securing it as evidence.
00:04:08.540 And the more we push back with this, the more intimidated and concerned those reporters have to be.
00:04:14.560 And I believe that, you know, is why some of them are actually starting to come forward and step down.
00:04:19.940 See you later.
00:04:49.740 See you later.
