00:00:00.000 Oh man, why isn't the country getting better?
00:00:01.840 Yeah, I wonder why the country isn't getting any better
00:00:03.820 when man after man in the lineup
00:00:06.000 who might have a platform
00:00:07.860 are just choosing to be silent on issues
00:00:10.300 that like unanimously people agree with.
00:00:12.660 If we have government controlling speech,
00:00:14.300 we're in trouble.
00:00:14.840 More power to intimidate,
00:00:16.240 to lock up, to silence.
00:00:17.200 The most totalitarian bill I've ever seen.
00:00:20.980 SaveFreeSpeech.ca
00:00:22.180 Bill C-63 is in its second reading
00:00:24.880 in the House of Commons right now.
00:00:27.580 And I'm calling this the free speech debate.
00:00:30.000 Because it is the free speech debate.
00:00:32.140 Now mind you, if you're a tyrant,
00:00:34.400 if you're a corrupt regime,
00:00:36.200 do you think you're going to say,
00:00:37.300 hey guys, this is the debate about free speech.
00:00:40.080 This is your last chance to fight for free speech.
00:00:42.460 Do you think the corrupt regime
00:00:43.540 is going to advertise that?
00:00:44.840 Of course not.
00:00:45.900 They're going to try to make it some sort of sleepy.
00:00:48.860 They don't pay attention to this.
00:00:50.680 It's not a big deal.
00:00:51.880 Something to do with online harms, whatever, whatever.
00:00:54.060 It's obviously not going to be framed
00:00:55.820 and characterized as the debate to end free speech.
00:01:00.420 But it's up to us and people like me
00:01:03.000 and of course SaveFreeSpeech.ca
00:01:04.680 to be like, no, that's exactly what this is.
00:01:07.580 That's exactly what this debate is about.
00:01:09.620 Because the legislation you're talking about
00:01:11.760 would create grave consequences
00:01:13.800 for basic expression in Canada.
00:01:17.200 And it's very creepy
00:01:18.460 how few people talked about this debate on Monday.
00:01:21.540 We saw a True North tweet about it.
00:01:23.360 We saw a tweet from like Sunshine Baby.
00:01:25.080 And that's pretty well it.
00:01:28.680 No real emphasis on,
00:01:30.140 hey guys, this might be the end of free speech in Canada.
00:01:32.080 Not at all.
00:01:32.880 I thought this was crazy, dude.
00:01:34.800 This was the same day of the debate.
00:01:38.420 Of the debate on free speech in Canada.
00:01:40.800 And Rebel News is tweeting,
00:01:41.860 Why did Sophie Trudeau tell Justin
00:01:44.860 to kiss Gian Gomeschi?
00:01:46.540 Why did Justin wink at her?
00:01:48.340 Why did the CBC delete this from their website?
00:01:51.480 Ooh.
00:01:52.780 This is like a clip from over 10 years ago.
00:01:55.820 This is like Perez Hilton shit.
00:01:58.100 This is like celebrity.
00:01:59.560 This is like trashy celebrity gossip.
00:02:01.660 And even the official Rebel News online page
00:02:03.660 has a little like eye emoji.
00:02:05.740 What's going on here, guys?
00:02:08.020 Rebel News telling the other side of the story.
00:02:11.040 Rebel News feeding you trashy gossip propaganda.
00:02:17.040 Not even propaganda.
00:02:18.020 Just like distracting gossip.
00:02:20.780 Man.
00:02:22.060 Like who cares?
00:02:23.360 Who cares about a clip from 10 years ago?
00:02:25.180 I don't.
00:02:25.920 Don't know where that was coming from.
00:02:27.180 But hopefully in the spirit of saving free speech in Canada
00:02:31.980 and standing up for our rights,
00:02:33.160 I would love to collaborate.
00:02:35.240 With whoever wants to, you know,
00:02:39.560 apply pressure to the Ottawa bubble
00:02:41.720 to try and have our way.
00:02:43.480 Because this is the thing.
00:02:44.380 Like it's really disturbing, guys.
00:02:46.140 I'm noticing a trend of podcasters,
00:02:50.280 right-wing influencers,
00:02:51.520 right-wing conservative influencers
00:02:53.180 who are like afraid to criticize Polyev
00:02:57.020 and afraid to criticize the conservative party
00:02:59.820 as if if they do that,
00:03:01.580 that's somehow going to like hurt their chances
00:03:03.500 of beating Trudeau.
00:03:04.940 As if them criticizing Polyev
00:03:07.580 are going to make people hate Trudeau less.
00:03:10.460 Like that's, it's absurd.
00:03:13.160 Like people hate Trudeau.
00:03:14.700 People want to get rid of Trudeau.
00:03:16.220 You criticizing Polyev
00:03:17.720 is not going to change that, okay?
00:03:19.740 Because criticizing Polyev,
00:03:21.020 and by the way,
00:03:21.660 a lot of people will agree with you.
00:03:23.320 Because a lot of people are upset with Polyev
00:03:25.720 for one reason or another
00:03:26.720 or think that he could be doing way much better.
00:03:28.740 Or our, what's her name?
00:03:31.600 Danielle Smith.
00:03:33.380 And her colleague getting, you know,
00:03:36.960 roasted by a transgender person in a Zoom call.
00:03:39.840 And it's just, it's just really disturbing
00:03:41.760 because we have all these Canadians,
00:03:44.280 all these right-wing Canadians
00:03:45.380 who are upset and concerned
00:03:46.600 about what's happening in this country.
00:03:49.080 And we want it to change.
00:03:51.300 But we're also silent.
00:03:52.840 We also think, well,
00:03:53.680 I don't want to say anything.
00:03:54.780 I don't know if I should criticize Polyev.
00:03:56.480 I don't know if that's a good idea.
00:03:58.480 Maybe I'll just shut up
00:03:59.700 and not have my voice heard.
00:04:02.120 And then I'll co-sign this idea of strategy
00:04:05.540 that Polyev should not stand up either
00:04:08.200 and speak with conviction
00:04:09.920 about what I believe
00:04:11.140 in terms of there only being two sexes
00:04:13.060 or that we should oppose mass migration.
00:04:17.820 Or, yeah, the fact that the housing crisis
00:04:20.780 is coming from mass migration
00:04:22.080 or the fact that Trudeau is a tyrant
00:04:24.220 and that that's why there's people
00:04:26.880 who got thrown in jail
00:04:27.680 after the trucker convoy
00:04:28.840 and that Bill C-63
00:04:29.780 would be the end of free speech in Canada.
00:04:32.240 You know, no, maybe I,
00:04:33.580 oh, it's just strategy.
00:04:34.640 It's like, you know what?
00:04:35.700 I'm going to support him anyway,
00:04:37.240 even though he's not speaking up
00:04:38.900 for what I believe in.
00:04:40.020 And I'm not going to speak up either
00:04:41.560 just because, well,
00:04:43.560 that would just make me uncomfortable.
00:04:46.200 Oh man, why isn't the country getting better?
00:04:48.180 Yeah, I wonder why the country
00:04:49.280 isn't getting any better.
00:04:50.160 When man after man in the lineup
00:04:52.320 who might have a platform
00:04:54.260 are just choosing to be silent
00:04:56.080 on issues that like unanimously
00:04:57.740 people agree with.
00:04:59.460 But it's just like we're all
00:05:01.180 and it all comes from the media.
00:05:02.960 It all comes from the
00:05:03.620 we're going to be slaves to the media.
00:05:05.300 Polyev is like the strategy
00:05:06.300 is be a slave to the media.
00:05:07.600 Let's not, you know,
00:05:08.900 let's not ruffle any feathers.
00:05:10.680 And some people might say,
00:05:11.980 oh, well, he's pushing back
00:05:13.140 against the media.
00:05:14.400 He's pushing back.
00:05:15.540 It's very calculated
00:05:17.960 whenever they do this,
00:05:19.140 whenever they say,
00:05:19.800 hey, we called out a CBC journalist.
00:05:23.320 Hey, we called out CTV
00:05:24.540 for misrepresenting us.
00:05:27.640 They edited a clip dishonestly.
00:05:29.960 Yeah, these institutions
00:05:30.960 also casually dehumanize
00:05:33.420 and vilify right wingers.
00:05:35.740 They casually villainize
00:05:37.420 and dehumanize people
00:05:38.780 who support you,
00:05:40.040 call you far right,
00:05:41.420 imply that you're like
00:05:42.240 the worst sort of moral person.
00:05:44.180 They do this on a regular basis.
00:05:46.520 Why don't you call them out for that?
00:05:50.200 You don't call them out for that.
00:05:51.820 The conservative party
00:05:52.420 doesn't call them out
00:05:53.160 for this casual dehumanization
00:05:55.620 of conservatives
00:05:56.280 that happens every single day
00:05:57.760 on the Canadian news media
00:06:00.160 in our major institutions.
00:06:02.400 Yeah.
00:06:02.660 Oh, they edited something
00:06:03.980 to make me look bad.
00:06:05.480 That's all you got?
00:06:07.040 Really?
00:06:08.460 Unbelievable.
00:06:09.540 If you want to support
00:06:10.740 the documentary
00:06:11.420 we're making that
00:06:12.360 is tying, you know,
00:06:14.060 connecting all these dots together.
00:06:15.540 We're working with
00:06:16.540 an award-winning filmmaker.
00:06:18.980 Okay?

00:06:19.940 a very, very exciting documentary.
