00:06:30.000here we go in three two one and we are live everybody thank you so much for joining the
00:06:53.880stream i am with a very special guest nicholas wands butter he is a uh canadian lawyer from
00:07:00.440stratford ontario a criminal lawyer and he also has a youtube channel which you can subscribe to
00:07:04.900a lot of great informational stuff at don't talk tv and uh thanks for joining me nicholas
00:07:10.540oh you're welcome my pleasure to be here yeah and i guess don't talk is uh from like you don't talk
00:07:16.940to the cops is that the idea absolutely don't don't talk to the police don't talk to the state0.97
00:07:24.020i mean don't talk to csis for example i mean i never thought as a criminal defense lawyer i'd be
00:07:29.720helping people out with csis but i've had to do that recently for people essentially committing0.88
00:07:36.680the crime of existing while white is what i call it they you know going out for a hike with a couple
00:07:41.200other guys of similar background and now csis starts harassing them had that happen wow0.82
00:07:46.920Wow. Hiking while white. I think they're talking about adding a piece of legislation about that, actually. But I would love to have a kind of like a longer chat and interview with you because you've done a lot of great content and videos and I might react to some of it on the channel. But since you have limited time today, I thought we could get right into some of the stuff on Bill C63. What do you think?1.00
00:08:10.460Sure. Absolutely. Amazing. So as you have most likely heard, there has been a Arif Arani has split the bill into two, likely because he doesn't think the human rights criminal code amendments will stick.
00:08:30.520And he's going to try to push through stuff. That's just this stuff is actually going to protect kids online. Right.
00:08:37.580yeah well i mean who knows why he's doing it i would hope it's because the criminal uh code stuff
00:08:44.060and the human rights stuff isn't going to go through i've actually talked about that a little
00:08:47.200bit on my channel i mean there's some crazy stuff in there i'm sure people on your channel already
00:08:51.740know all about the the pre-crime stuff like the peace bonds and the house arrest for people who
00:08:57.680they think might commit a crime right um let's just make sure this works okay can you you can
00:09:05.540still hear me yeah um so yeah this uh tweet was from a referani the other day months of
00:09:11.740conservator filibustering have signaled progress on bill c63 our kids can't wait any longer
00:09:16.560anyway so there's part a of the bill protects kids online and there's part b so today while
00:09:22.660we have uh your expert lawyer opinion i thought we'd go over part a which a reef says all these
00:09:29.700part a's and a 1.2 1.3 but essentially it's part one and part four of the actual black and white
00:09:36.520legislation of bill c63 is that that that's what he said right that's pretty well accurate yeah
00:09:42.260that that's what he's saying they're going to do now they haven't actually done it yet if i actually
00:09:47.440have just on my other screen here the uh the um parliament website i mean they still yeah he i
00:09:56.260mean he's right c63 is stalled it's still stalled at second reading which is probably good with some
00:10:04.460of the concerns i've seen i mean if they've only made it from to second reading since february i
00:10:09.200think it's probably unlikely that this would make it into law by november 2025 but yeah it looks like
00:10:16.120as you say they're trying to they're they're splitting it hoping that they can get the some
00:10:22.780of the other parties to agree to at least part of it and get that in right right and it's been
00:10:29.180kind of scary spooky because some conservative freedom-minded voices have kind of softened a
00:10:35.720little bit and said oh well he's you know he's throwing this uh you know human rights stuff and
00:10:41.840uh amendment to the criminal code aside so i guess we can all agree on just the part that's
00:10:48.340going to protect kids online and while i have you here today i thought we could try to answer that
00:10:52.040question is part a uh actually is there anything in here actually that's going to protect kids
00:10:58.160online so it's kind of an exercise in sort of instead of straw manning the argument i thought
00:11:02.520we could steel man the argument and see if there's actually anything in here that uh does protect
00:11:08.700kids online so uh should i just hop right into the um the let's let's start with the um
00:11:18.140the actual description of the harms where is it here
00:11:22.360i think i may have skipped over it yeah sorry
00:11:27.140i don't envy you having to go through all this legislation all the time it's it's really
00:11:35.740like it i'm not i'm not this is not my cup of tea so it's quite yeah well i mean i'll be honest
00:11:42.000a lot of this legislation that the liberal party of canada has come out with since 2015
00:11:47.180is not my cup of tea to go through either because the the hallmark of their legislation in my view
00:11:54.360and just from my perspective as a lawyer maybe some lawyers would say well it's just because
00:11:58.220you're a dumb criminal lawyer not a real lawyer um the hallmark of it is that it's vague and
00:12:06.560word salady so even as a lawyer reading through a lot of it half the time like well i don't know
00:12:12.860what they're saying or or what they're actually what they're actually going to do with this and i
00:12:18.260think a lot of the same can be said here uh with when we say is this actually going to protect
00:12:24.620children well when we get through it a little bit you'll see what they're doing is so vague and what
00:12:29.620they're doing a lot of it is it's all well we're just putting this framework in place and then
00:12:35.480regulations are going to give you the details which regulations don't have to pass through
00:12:41.140parliament. So it's very undemocratic and also non-transparent because you just put through this
00:12:49.340law and then bureaucrats, unelected bureaucrats can just add regulations behind the scenes as
00:12:55.380they see fit. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. Here's a good example. There's a lot of examples of this,1.00
00:13:03.920but in the purple, this is the commission's mandate is promote online safety in Canada,
00:13:09.100contribute to the reduction of harms caused to persons in canada as a result of harmful content
00:13:13.020online by among other things and then one of them is facilitating the participation of indigenous
00:13:18.060peoples of canada and interested persons in the commission's activities in the purple here right
00:13:25.660yeah and what what does that mean i i mean it's a as a law well it's not that's a law that's just
00:13:31.660saying that's the purpose or the mandate of the commission so okay the mandate is that they
00:13:36.300They apparently want to get individual people more involved, which, okay, that's fine.
00:13:42.880I guess what they'd be saying there is the reason that's going to benefit dangers to youth is if they're suggesting that Indigenous youth are at more risk of getting in trouble online, so they want to get their communities more engaged.
00:14:01.520I mean, that may or may not be the case.
00:14:04.060I do know that it is unfortunately a sad truth that indigenous youth can tend to be a little bit more vulnerable just owing to some of the difficulties they have in a lot of the reserves, especially out west.
00:14:21.440I've been to some of the reserves in Manitoba and some of them are, it's really not good living conditions.
00:14:27.520and and there are i mean you know i don't think we want to get too much into the
00:14:34.940off topic on that you know there's a lot of factors that go into that but um sure another
00:14:40.860example here of how open it ended it is and again this is this is my non-lawyer assessment of this
00:14:46.940but it says and this is for the digital safety commission these unelected bureaucrats this is
00:14:51.340this section of the bill requirements when making regulations and issuing guidelines codes of conduct
00:14:56.820and other documents, the commission must take into account freedom of expression, equality rights,
00:15:02.080privacy rights, the needs and perspectives of the indigenous people of Canada, and any other factor
00:15:08.520that the commission considers relevant. For example, what if the factor is the rise of racism
00:15:15.080or the rise of anti-Semitism? So the commission must consider relevant factors like being
00:15:21.060consciously anti-racism. Yeah, absolutely. You've nailed it right there. And that's, you know,
00:15:25.640it's they have to consider they get to tell themselves what they consider relevant so it
00:15:31.980kind of it takes away any sort of oversight because they end up being the ones who get to
00:15:36.800decide what's important but the way that's worded there and you know putting that in there gives them
00:15:42.600a nice out to really do whatever they want because even though it has some nice terminology there at
00:15:48.440the beginning about having to take into account freedom of expression and equality rights they
00:15:54.660can use sub e to just say well you know the rise of hate for example that's more important or more
00:16:03.140pressing than the freedom of expression so although we've considered freedom of expression because
00:16:08.660we're we have to take that into account we're taking these other factors such as the ones that
00:16:14.100you've just listed as a couple of the favorite buzzwords that they like to use they can then
00:16:18.340use this to say well see we we've used we've done a to e but we've determined that e
00:16:24.640has some more pressing concerns for us or or i mean also the equality rights
00:16:30.740because unfortunately i think we if anyone who's read animal farm you know there's the the phrase
00:16:37.480all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others i mean that's a phrase
00:16:43.360tailor-made for Canada in 2024 because you see it quality you know some people in Canada are more
00:16:51.560equal than others I think that's undeniable I mean I'd be called you know a lot of people
00:16:57.040probably say oh that's racist to say that I mean it's racist it's just that that is a fact now I
00:17:01.900think the argument is is that right or not you know don't tell me that I'm a racist for noticing
00:17:06.140this tell me you know just justify to me is that a good thing that some people have have different
00:17:11.860rights than others which they can't so that's why they resort to pejoratives like that yeah and you
00:17:19.880know i highlighted other stuff like this this is under chairperson and vice chairperson the
00:17:23.980chairperson may make rules respecting the commission's procedures and practices yeah well
00:17:29.420yeah just leave that up here because i think that's important notice we're on section 20 here
00:17:33.280where it's talking about you know what the chairperson may do or the chairperson's powers
00:17:38.160duties and functions but you know we're at we're at section 20 which for a law that's really short
00:17:44.400which i can tell you like there's nothing in the preceding 19 sections that actually tells us
00:17:49.120anything like this is the first time we're hearing about what powers the commission has it talks
00:17:53.760about things that they need to uh what their purposes are what their mandate is it talks
00:17:58.000about the composition so sections 12 to 17 is talking about who's in the commission um and then
00:18:06.160we get and then you start getting into the chairperson vice chairperson this is where we
00:18:10.080get into this this vagueness where you know they make rules regarding the procedures so there's no
00:18:18.800nothing in this law saying what the procedures and practices are that they'll just be made up
00:18:24.400by the commissioner after this thing is established uh i mean they have to make the
00:18:29.200rules publicly available that's good uh and then section 21 you have there the chairperson may
00:18:35.120authorize one or more members to exercise any of the commission's powers so again it's not
00:18:41.780delineating you know who does what it's just vesting it all in the chairperson and again
00:18:50.400it's just let since the law up to this point has told us almost nothing about this commission
00:18:56.180just what their mandate is who's going to be in it or like who's um it just says that it's three
00:19:03.720to five full-time members appointed by the governor and council i.e the prime minister i
00:19:08.500mean the the governor and council technically that's the the governor general but it's one
00:19:14.560of the problems with canada is you have the legislative and executive branch are really
00:19:20.180combined into one just through a historical anomaly of how our government has developed
00:19:26.060since it's a constitutional monarchy but the monarch has abdicated all responsibility and
00:19:31.780authority so therefore you have all the power in the prime minister yeah and one of the sorry
00:19:39.660were you going to say something else no go ahead um uh i was watching a referani talk to some youth
00:19:48.220uh in his writing about bill c63 and he addressed one of the concerns of like oh is it going to is
00:19:54.540the digital safety commission going to be biased no i'll tell you why it won't be biased because
00:19:58.700none of the people are going to be me or justin trudeau and it's like well it's going to be your
00:20:04.800friends though or people that you appoint which is the whole concern yeah it will be people they
00:20:11.180appoint because they say when it says appointed by the governor and council what that means
00:20:14.580is the prime minister puts the list of people gives it to the governor general saying here's
00:20:20.780my quote-unquote recommendation unquote your excellency and then the governor general just
00:20:26.780rubber stamps it because again the way things have developed historically in our country it's
00:20:32.360considered anathema for the governor general to actually exercise the power that on paper they
00:20:37.640have i know i mean i'm not going to get into the whole debate of whether democracy is good or not
00:20:44.720even if you assume democracy is the best thing since sliced bread it would still be better if
00:20:49.860even the unelected governor general exercised some authority because then there'd be at least
00:20:54.180somewhat of a check on the power of the prime minister rather than the prime minister being
00:20:58.740able to draft the laws and then do these uh these uh appointments because if we had a republic
00:21:05.060like the united states the president would be fulfilling the role or holding the position that
00:21:11.220our governor general does so then you'd have actually a different person potentially someone
00:21:16.000from a different party who is then deciding who these people will be yeah yeah well let's get into
00:21:24.660the actual harms i've gone over this a bunch of times but you know you you are a lawyer you've
00:21:30.560practiced law so um these this is the harmful content that the digital safety commission uh
00:21:38.420wants to remove from the internet and i highlighted the top two um and i guess i should maybe highlight
00:21:45.980this one too um i guess my question is are these things already uh illegal a intimate content
00:21:55.380communicated without consent let's go one at a time yeah they are i mean that sub a is already
00:22:01.680illegal under the criminal code of canada so part of the question is why do they even need this
00:22:07.020commission when you should have the various police agencies already accepting complaints
00:22:13.920are looking into these things uh content that sexually victimizes a child or re-victimizes a
00:22:20.140survivor well i don't know what they mean by re-victimizes a survivor because if they mean
00:22:24.940by re-victimize that doesn't that doesn't exist in the criminal code and i'm not sure what they
00:22:31.280mean by by victimizing uh content that sexually victimizes a child assuming that by victimize
00:22:39.500they mean uh similar things like the criminal i don't have the the code numbers off the top of my
00:22:44.740head but uh they have there are offenses under the criminal code such as making sexually explicit
00:22:50.960material available to a minor that that could be victimizing a child but that you know it's
00:22:56.260more specific in the criminal code that making content available to a minor is a crime uh things
00:23:02.340like uh an invitation to sexual touching like in if someone's or inviting children to engage in
00:23:10.460certain sexual acts like you know you hear about these things where people they'll get into these
00:23:14.580chat rooms or various things and with children and get them to to turn on their video and do
00:23:21.080things that if that's what they mean by victimizes then that is already a crime under the criminal
00:23:28.560codes. There's a whole host of things under the criminal code that would cover off sections A and
00:23:33.780B, and also section F, really. I mean, there's section F content that incites violence. I mean,
00:23:43.260Canada has the hate crime laws that I've talked about a lot on my channel that I think are
00:23:49.740really thought crime laws. They say that it's, yeah, inciting violence or hatred towards
00:23:57.900individuals there's also things like inciting violence like inciting a breach of the peace
00:24:03.060or inciting a riot essentially that would be inciting violence that's already a crime so i'm
00:24:10.640not sure you know they're acting as if these things aren't already crimes and if they're not
00:24:16.560already being forced but i guess it's the same as their firearms laws right they say oh well
00:24:20.520you know people are getting killed so you know as if murder isn't already illegal we have to now
00:24:26.420make firearms illegal because you know that that will stop the criminals from using firearms we'll
00:24:32.980take all the firearms away from the lawful owners and that'll stop this um similar it's it seems
00:24:39.520like the way they're headed here could be something like well we're going to greatly restrict the
00:24:46.580liberty that people have to go on the internet uh in order to stop these crimes because right now
00:24:52.500and the internet has been for decades kind of the wild west relatively speaking right it's been
00:24:58.340completely unregulated um and then that and that's why the internet's a place where you can get
00:25:04.340access to i mean there's bad things you can get access to but there's so much good stuff you can
00:25:09.060get access to that before the internet you would have i mean even a channel like this you wouldn't
00:25:13.940be able to get the type of content that you put out uh back before the internet right because then
00:25:18.980it was all like i you know i've seen some of your uh your videos that you've done the kind of the
00:25:23.540funnier ones where you're pretending to be different members of the government or things
00:25:28.020that that would never see the light of day before the internet because it would the only way you
00:25:32.840could get it out would be if some like cbc somehow agreed to to put that on the television which
00:25:40.740obviously it wouldn't whereas with the lack of regulation without something the crtc which i
00:25:46.180think that's what's coming after this this is really a most likely a stepping stone to eventually
00:25:51.340trying to regulate the internet the way television is is regulated where you need the crtc to sign
00:25:56.880off on your on your channel right um do you know much about uh this bill c11 the online streaming
00:26:04.520act in that regard because it or or even uh the online news act because a lot of people kind of
00:26:10.520made that same analogy of like we can't just have all this unregulated content on the internet and
00:26:16.160kind of implying that the CRTC needs to step in and regulate everything that people are posting
00:26:23.380on the internet yeah I and I I think that is uh not uh I think that's a fair concern for people
00:26:33.260to have uh I haven't looked at at c11 uh recently but I know I did look at it when I was looking at
00:26:40.980that that's that's the concern the concern i've had and the problem with that one is i'm like c63
00:26:47.160i mean that one's made it all the way through uh i mean a while ago back in 2023 it made it all
00:26:54.520all the way through the uh through the senate and the house of commons yeah and and part of
00:27:00.400the reason i started safefreespeech.ca is i noticed with these with these bills regarding
00:27:06.740the canadian internet it was tabled it was going on for a while and then always 10 business days
00:27:14.360before it goes into law that's when that's when the conservatives that's when the opposition
00:27:19.120starts to talk about it when it's just way too late to actually uh you know raise the awareness
00:27:23.780among the public with with one of the most you know the internet is like one of the most crucial
00:27:28.480things now for uh for uh you know civilized society especially for one that believes in
00:27:34.460free speech and free discourse because a lot of it happens online now um so let's uh we covered
00:27:41.520the online harms thing i do want to go back to one thing you said though which is uh because i think
00:27:47.020you you kind of bring up a a good point or um it's a phenomenon that really i think is a huge
00:27:54.680red flag you were saying sexually victimizes a child or revict like what does that mean
00:28:00.380does that mean a chat room does that mean uh you know a service that provides illicit
00:28:06.860you know illegal material and it's a red flag to me because they say that they want to protect
00:28:14.200kids online and why aren't they more specific why can't they go into like this is a chat room
00:28:21.500this is the rules here this is the chat room there or whatever it might be it seems to be
00:28:26.320done so cynically and so kind of top down and just sort of like listen let's just give the power to
00:28:31.800the digital safety commission we'll make up the rules as we go it's uh very cynically done well
00:28:38.020i mean that's certainly a possibility i suppose the flip side is they'd say well we need to give
00:28:42.760the commission the flexibility to deal with how quickly the internet evolves which would not be
00:28:48.840totally unfair but i think i would say that if they're really serious about this why are they
00:28:56.860creating new laws and a new commission why not just give more resources to the rcmp or a mandate
00:29:02.460to the rcmp tell them to start cracking down on this stuff and investigating it a lot more because
00:29:09.640as i said they already have in place what they need to stop the things that they've listed as
00:29:15.020being harmful content it's a matter of resources and priorities yeah no absolutely absolutely
00:29:23.500um and i think a good thing to bring up here is porn hub has been caught um enabling human
00:29:34.980trafficking and also providing all sorts of inappropriate material and they are headquartered
00:29:40.660in montreal canada um i sent you a link before our chat i'm wondering if you had a chance to
00:29:48.020to like look into it um because there's you know more or less the owner of porn hub
00:29:54.820headquartered in montreal sort of has an existing relationship with the canadian government
00:30:00.020and they've been investigated before um do you not do you know much about this investigation
00:30:07.540i i don't know much about it uh it's something that i i should probably look into more because
00:30:14.500uh i did have a look at what you sent me and yeah it was interesting but it's also frustrating to
00:30:20.020read okay they did all these investigations so where are the court cases where are the arrests
00:30:26.660and the charges and so again that goes back to my comment of look if they're serious if they
00:30:31.780actually want to protect kids they've got the tools why don't they go after these people i mean
00:30:36.180mean i mean i don't know why they're not going after these people and people you know i guess
00:30:42.020that's a question a lot of people be able to have to think about for themselves of you know why
00:30:46.860wouldn't the government go hard after the things like porno i mean they're well within canada's
00:30:51.140jurisdiction you can't claim oh well they're hiding in switzerland or in the care some caribbean
00:30:56.360island or something they're they're in canada and uh you know i keep coming back to certain things
00:31:03.160like now granted uh vice uh the you know the left of center i suppose they call themselves media
00:31:10.400group they did a lot of the legwork for the rcmp but you know they still did expended incredible
00:31:15.520resources to track down the identity of this this guy um i forget his real name a dark foreigner
00:31:22.480it was his screen name you know who he made some pictures for this neo-nazi group which okay i'm
00:31:28.620not saying it's good to be making uh content for a group like that but he made some pictures for
00:31:34.360them and you're gonna hunt to the ends of the earth and expend millions of dollars of taxpayers
00:31:39.000money and how many hours of rcmp officers time to hunt down a meme maker when you've got people
00:31:44.080like pornhub doing this stuff or you've got people actually victimizing people that they choose not
00:31:50.020to go after interesting so you're saying they definitely like our our law enforcement definitely
00:31:56.380has the means to target and go after people when they find content online they don't like
00:32:02.940yes yeah now i mean now that was one guy and there's all kinds of other people making stuff
00:32:09.300for different all kinds of different groups they chose to after that kind as i said vice did do a
00:32:14.080lot of the legwork for them but that shows they have the ability it would so again rather than
00:32:19.040creating some new commission with a bunch of commissioners who are probably gonna be pulling
00:32:22.560in 200 250 000 a year salaries put that money into uh into rcmp's cyber crime units or local
00:32:32.300police forces to to look into this stuff yeah i mean i i think in a different world i could
00:32:37.340totally be on board with the online harms act if it had stuff about we're gonna hunt down the
00:32:42.340pedophiles we're gonna hunt down the child pornographers you know you got alex jones
00:32:47.560talking about it at the podium i'd be i'd be right there i'd be like yeah let's pass this now let's
00:32:52.060let's hunt him down let's get him um but once again it just seems to be very cynically the
00:32:58.060the fact that they even just lump all this stuff together with content used to bully a child
00:33:03.140content yeah well and i think f and g that's the key right there content that incites violence and
00:33:09.520content that incites violent extremism or terrorism uh because that's what i see them
00:33:16.380focusing on that's what the police seem to be focusing on in terms of people getting charged
00:33:23.100for things i mean as again like why am i as a defense lawyer getting calls from people saying
00:33:28.520like hey this cesus agent keeps calling me wanting to talk to me about this hike i went on with my
00:33:33.500buddies and then i have to call them to say hey like look my client's not going to talk to you
00:33:38.800please leave him alone i mean what like why are they even looking into that that you know and
00:33:46.000i think it goes back to the whole you know why did um why was it okay i mean really okay because
00:33:53.880people didn't get charged i didn't see riot police or or horse police going in to deal with all those
00:33:59.000jews for palestine who occupied the actually went inside and occupied the parliament building
00:34:04.060recently and were blocking the prime minister's uh motorcade and that you know they just backed
00:34:09.680out like the rcmp guarding the prime minister backed out of that so that they don't send it
00:34:15.600don't put down with violence but the freedom convoy which was a bunch like i mean i was there0.71
00:34:21.600i don't know if you were you were there uh you know i was there assholes a dance party at the0.53
00:34:27.640corner of uh uh what was the corner of essex and uh wellington or you know you know that's what
00:34:35.660they send in the riot police for but not people who are actually occupying the parliament so
00:34:40.260you know i think you have to take these laws any laws only as good as how it's enforced right
00:34:45.560So on paper, there's things that are certainly not objectionable, as you said, if they're using this as, hey, we're going to really go after the child pornographers and we're in the human traffickers and we're really going to drop the hammer on them.
00:34:56.820Yeah, sign me up. But when I see on the ground who they're actually going after and who do we hear them always talking about when they're talking about violent extremism in the media?
00:35:08.220Do you hear them talking about, oh, we're really concerned that there's an increase in jihadism or things like that?
00:35:15.420Or do we hear them always talking about, oh, we're concerned about these, you know, white nationalists, extremists and what have you?
00:35:22.760That seems what they're always talking about.
00:35:25.420And I don't see a lot of evidence that that's actually a problem in Canada.
00:35:28.680Unless you take, you know, a definition of white nationalism that's so broad is to encompass anyone who just doesn't hate Canada's entire heritage and culture.
00:40:26.900The money is going into things like paying all these obscene amounts of money
00:40:31.940for refugees to have a hotel and free food,0.95
00:40:34.900paying obscene amounts of money for pushing all this LGBT stuff and the, you know, the0.94
00:40:41.020library readings and all that kind of stuff. I mean, these people wouldn't be able to do that
00:40:45.860if they didn't have government money propping them up. We could list all kinds of things. But
00:40:51.540at the end of the day, follow the money. That's where the parties really are. And this stuff feels
00:40:56.600a bit like window dressing if they're not backing it up with the money. And as I said, that's all
00:41:01.880they need to do they don't really have to pass new laws they could just give the funding and the
00:41:07.220the resources to law enforcement and tell law enforcement this is what we want you to prioritize
00:41:13.540maybe don't focus so much on the the the guys going for hikes or you know like active clubs
00:41:20.500is a big thing that they're really focusing on lately um i don't know if you know if you've
00:41:26.660heard of those there from what i've been told it again it's like guys it's like men usually
00:41:33.860white men like european heritage getting together to i guess they practice martial arts they go for
00:41:41.560hikes they do stuff like maybe say like you know what we're not actually so scared about those
00:41:46.460people overthrowing the government because there's barely any of them and all they're really doing is
00:41:50.060just hang out together for a bit once a week let's focus on on the the predators online
00:41:57.400yeah yeah so speaking of money um they want to hand out very big fines to big tech operators
00:42:08.620um have you have you looked into this section of the bill well i've had a look at it so i here's
00:42:16.540the thing to keep in mind about these. So these are a fine of not more than 8% of the operator's
00:42:24.360gross revenue. So what they're saying is this is the maximum that they could fine any of these
00:42:28.800individuals. So the principle when it comes to sentencing under any criminal code or any other
00:42:35.700statute is the maximum is reserved for the worst offender in the worst set of circumstances.
00:42:43.600so for in a criminal perspective the worst offender would be someone who has a terrible record they've
00:42:50.620done this you know dozens of times that you know they're before the court it is the fifth time
00:42:58.120they're getting brought up on the same charges or the 10th time or the 20th time uh you know they
00:43:03.380have just nothing sympathetic about them they've never done anything to try and fix themselves
00:43:08.120they have absolutely no remorse you know you get the idea and then the worst set of circumstances
00:43:13.720would be you know the worst possible iteration of that crime so uh you know if um
00:43:22.200you know say for example just picking a random crime off the top of my head a crime like uh
00:43:29.080fleeing from police if the police are trying to play over you flee from them so the the worst
00:43:34.040offender would be someone who's done this multiple times before they have a terrible driving record
00:43:37.960that they didn't even have a license at the time and then the worst circumstance would be well not
00:43:42.180only did they flee from police it was extreme high speed they drove over a child while they
00:43:47.200were fleeing from the police and you know and they end up like destroying a bunch of property and all
00:43:52.100that and then when they're finally caught they had a shootout with the police so that you know
00:43:56.020that's like the worst possible set of circumstance you could think of so that's where you're going
00:44:00.980to finally get the maximum and the maximums are almost never handed out they're very rarely
00:44:07.140handed down the absolute maximum so yeah that stuff sounds like a really heavy hit but
00:44:12.520uh the only um operator you to use their term that would be getting eight percent of their
00:44:20.440gross global revenue or 25 million dollars the the only ones who'd be getting that are ones who
00:44:26.360are like serial offenders for not following up with this stuff and uh and it's a really bad set
00:44:33.380circumstances but also again it goes back to okay yeah this is the law but are they going to back up
00:44:40.820this law with action are they actually going to go after these operators or you know are they
00:44:46.600actually going to investigate and prosecute these people right so well what i'm curious about is
00:44:53.120what triggers an event like this and there's different you know there's different um you know
00:44:58.580anyone who commits an offense under subsection one is liable of this you know every operator
00:45:04.800that commits an offense under subsection one is liable of this like there's there's different
00:45:08.740penalties for different things and i'm trying to kind of parse it out here um right well that one
00:45:14.200refers back to um like it says every operator commits an offense that contravenes an order of
00:45:20.800the commission what does that yeah what does contra what does that mean well i imagine it
00:45:26.220be something comparable to a court order so you know if the commission i know that for example
00:45:32.140the section 91 sub 1 is referenced in there as well and that's the one where the they can an
00:45:37.420inspector can for verifying compliance or preventing non-compliance of that may enter any place that
00:45:44.460they have reasonable grounds to believe that there's a document so disobeying an order of
00:45:49.420the commission would be if you don't let their inspector into your facility to have a look at
00:45:53.180your servers or what i mean i guess it would maybe it wouldn't be physically entering their facility
00:45:57.980might be uh remotely accessing it so that that would be one example or if the commission said
00:46:06.060hey you need to shut down this portion of your site you need to stop you know letting some of
00:46:12.780this content be available so someone who i could see someone who i could see actually getting
00:46:21.340prosecuted under this would be something like uh uh was it gab which is the like the really you
00:46:28.700know where they publicize themselves as the no holds barred free speech version of uh of twitter
00:46:35.340i can see them going after gab by saying well hey you've got this quote-unquote anti-semitic or
00:46:42.460quote-unquote hateful content on your site you need to shut that down otherwise we're gonna
00:46:47.900fine you and then if he doesn't take it down then they'll get hit with the fines i i feel like again
00:46:56.620i don't have a crystal ball but just looking at past conduct and looking at the sorts of things
00:47:01.500that seem to be getting prosecuted i feel like it's things like gab that they're really gunning
00:47:08.620for not things like porn hub because have you heard of anyone from porn hub getting arrested
00:47:13.820Whereas the owner of Gab and the owner of Telegram just got arrested not too long ago.
00:47:19.640Now that wasn't Canada, but, you know, same, you know, it was another NATO country, another G7 country, you know, they're all kind of similar mindset.
00:47:29.260Right. So when my concern and, and, you know, let me know if this is hyperbolic Canadian government, what would then, what would then happen to Facebook?
00:47:40.240Would they not get knocked on the door by the Digital Safety Commission?
00:47:44.440And it's like, if you don't take this content down, we're going to fine you?
01:02:48.960like i see the globalist conservative party of canada i see these like lying career politicians
01:02:55.440and outside of that i don't really see that much i don't really see much going on of course
01:03:01.280you know my whole journey started with the people's party of canada and that's fantastic
01:03:05.460and they're doing what they can to create a platform for people i think they could be you
01:03:11.320know better i think they could be more aggressive i think they could put a lot more thought into
01:03:17.000more powerful messaging and rhetoric to really capture the frustration of canadians right now
01:03:23.740because you know the the let's face it the anti-immigrant sentiment is really strong
01:03:28.860the ppc has the policy to address that but it's like the the rhetoric is just simply not strong
01:03:36.960enough um but anyway my point is you know i see these other kind of alternative media outlets
01:03:44.380And they sort of just prop up the PPC or sorry, the conservative party and Pierre Polyev.
01:03:50.460And so it's like, what are we, you know, what's what, what like actual solutions are there out there to like fight this battle in the fifth generational warfare?
01:04:11.800We need to be educating people on a regular basis about this stuff, and that's why I'm super pumped about this documentary because it's going to tell a very, very, very important story, which is, in a nutshell, identifying the enemy.
01:04:26.560Identifying the enemy because, you know, getting Trudeau out, I should bring up the example, but getting Trudeau out, can I find it quickly?
01:04:36.360it's just so annoying when I'm cooking
01:04:38.600and then I want to like talk about something
01:16:32.520When in reality, there's a whole class of bureaucrats who fall in line with being subservient to the corrupt government, the corrupt regime that they all work for.
01:16:46.420And very rarely do I see anyone kind of properly identifying the enemy, properly identifying like the villain of the story.
01:18:14.260Hello, my name is Nicholas Wandsbutter.
01:18:16.160I'm a criminal defense lawyer in Stratford, Ontario, Canada,
01:18:18.920and welcome to don't talk tv now the question of hate crimes and hate propaganda has come up in
01:18:24.100the news recently two items in particular caught my attention one a gentleman named let's just
01:18:30.320check the time so that's february 17th 2021 this was the february before the convoy canadian
01:18:37.160nationalist party leader charged with willful promotion of hate so this for those who don't
01:18:41.980know this is a hate speech law that's already on the books and it's enforced and used very rarely
01:18:47.440So he's going to kind of go over, I think, one of the times it has been used.
01:18:50.920Travis Patron, or Patron, not exactly sure how to pronounce his name, who's apparently the leader of the Nationalist Party of Canada, was arrested and charged with promotion of genocide under Section 318 of the Criminal Code and willful promotion of hatred under Section 319 of the Criminal Code.
01:19:08.500This was in relation to a YouTube video that he had posted some years ago
01:19:12.920and which the Canadian Anti-Hate Network had brought to the attention of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police.
01:25:23.640And then they kind of they let sort of, I don't know, resentment and fear take over and it turns into this sort of nasty thing and they just start kind of tearing down everyone around.
01:25:34.860They just start to like shit on everything.
01:25:37.400They start to shit on the PPC, for example.
01:25:39.920They start to shit on Diagalon or Jeremy McKenzie or myself or anyone who's actually trying to do something.
01:25:45.720and it's it's very and and you know to be fair people people like might might between diagonal
01:25:52.480and ppc and they might be fighting back and forth and that sort of thing and this is what i mean
01:25:56.440sometimes it's productive in fighting and it's constructive criticism or it's like pushing the
01:26:01.320person to be more aggressive or more you know more um more strong and brave with their rhetoric
01:26:10.800but on the flip side sometimes it's just kind of nasty and destructive and unproductive and sort of
01:26:19.720like it just feels like the person is trying to tear something else down because it feels good
01:26:25.340in the moment you know what i said about you're aspiring for a positive goal to try and you know
01:26:29.480turn the country around but you also have to look at the reality these people are not having any sort
01:26:34.680of aspiration for the future they're like it's totally over there is no future so what can i do
01:26:38.420with the immediate power i have right now i'm gonna go shit on that person right there i have0.67
01:26:42.620the power i have the ability to go shit on that person and it's gonna feel good it's gonna feel0.93
01:26:48.580good to just throw a brick through that window because fuck that it's over anyway bro0.67
01:26:53.360that's what's unproductive that's what kind of needs to stop um i think the infighting can be0.53
01:27:01.800good i think having i think actually i want to host more debates to be honest because i've gotten a
01:27:06.700lot of great feedback from that debate uh between the ferryman's toll and um alex cargill aka
01:27:14.180trans splendor and i would like to do more debates on those topics because let's face it there aren't
01:27:19.040really much debates going on in canada period there's not going to be a debate on the cbc
01:27:24.320there's not going to be a debate on ctv news or city tv there's not even going to be a debate
01:27:30.900with the conservative party of canada they are very much nope like no discussion if you become
01:27:39.040a member you're not even allowed to like you have to write all this stuff to sign your life away to
01:27:43.580like not talk about stuff so there's no debate happening there either where's the debate
01:27:49.620happening it's like quite frankly the debate is happening online between you know ppc people
01:27:59.420diagonal on people whatever it is um maybe some maybe a little bickering with kind of the
01:28:04.920conservative gatekeepers but most of the time that they just try to prop up the conservative
01:28:08.480party but like there's a lot of very pressing issues going on and like no one's really we're
01:28:12.960not really talking about it or parsing it out whatsoever so uh d's in chat if you want more
01:28:20.180debates let me see those d's but uh that's pretty well my rant we we gotta we gotta keep things
01:28:26.000productive um i think in like i said infighting and disagreement i think can very be very healthy
01:28:32.480uh even if it gets heated even like i can see if it gets like sometimes a little nasty or people
01:28:37.620kind of like you know mock each other a bit and ridicule each other a bit because that's how you
01:28:41.660can get your point across but um aside from that you know when it's just kind of like nasty with
01:28:48.000with no real points that that that kind of stuff i think is just i think i think when i see that
01:28:54.320stuff i think it's just honestly depressing because it's like people are just demoralized
01:28:57.520and this is like the epitome of losing the epitome of losing is you know getting crushed
01:29:02.800by the globalist astro-surfed conservative party and then any amount of resistance is
01:29:08.540just bickering and fighting amongst each other with no sort of um no sort of
01:29:14.500sign that it's going to manifest into anything productive um i think conflicts are good
01:29:24.360but it needs to turn into something positive yes look at the d's in chat let's freaking go
01:29:29.600let's freaking go um let's let's continue to react to this i a pub in downtown london called
01:29:37.500the ale house hadn't been charged with willfully promoting hatred for a sign that they posted on
01:29:42.980their building that said, we love Chinese people, but we hate the genocide and the Chinese virus
01:29:49.580that your communist government has inflicted on us. Now, it's important for Canadians to understand0.67
01:29:55.020the hate propaganda laws, firstly, so that you understand both your rights and your obligations
01:30:00.520for public discourse in Canadian society, and also to give some insight into why these charges
01:30:06.200are so rarely laid. So in this episode, firstly, I'll cover what is laid out in sections 318 and
01:30:12.800319 of the criminal code and it explain what is required to prove charges under those sections
01:30:18.880then i'll look specifically at how those sections of the criminal code might apply
01:30:24.000against the video in question posted by mr patron or patron and finally i'll look at how
01:30:29.740that those sections may or may not apply to the ale house in london ontario
01:30:33.940amazing this is stuff we've covered this is stuff we've covered on the channel before but
01:30:40.040I'm excited to hear what my rights are in regards to hating things
01:30:45.440and what I'm allowed to hate and what I'm not allowed to hate
01:30:48.120and what I'm allowed to say and not allowed to say.
01:31:09.380Now, genocide is specifically defined under subsection 2 as an act committed with the intent of destroying, in whole or in part, any identifiable group, specifically killing members of that group, or deliberately inflicting upon that group life conditions calculated to bring about the destruction of that group.
01:31:25.720So if they're trying to prove that someone's advocating or promoting genocide, they have to prove that the person is actually calling for the killing of individuals, or the...0.79
01:31:32.680I wonder if, like, calling to end whiteness qualifies.0.95
01:31:35.760Thanks. Does calling to end whiteness qualify as a call to genocide? Just curious.0.61
01:31:41.300Purposeful imposition of conditions that are so bad that they would most likely die,
01:31:45.400or a large number of them would be certain to die. Now, an identifiable group is also
01:31:49.020specifically defined in this section. So an identifiable group is defined in this section
01:31:53.760as any section of the public distinguished by color, race, religion, national or ethnic origin,
01:31:58.780age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, or mental or physical disability.
01:32:03.620Section 319 is then public incitement of hatred, and there's two ways that individuals can be charged under that section.
01:32:09.820The first is under subsection 1 that says that everyone who, by communicating statements in any public place, incites hatred against any identifiable group where such incitement is likely to lead to a breach of the peace.
