00:00:00.000 how it started small fringe minority versus how it's going the largest convoy by the time it
00:00:06.900 reached ottawa was 40 kilometers long thousands of vehicles the massive occupation
00:00:16.680 the events represent a paradigm shift in public protest
00:00:21.840 that clip is from the emergencies act inquiry that happened this thursday there's a cbc article
00:00:29.600 battle lines drawn as the emergencies act inquiry gets underway in ottawa documents introduced at
00:00:36.840 the inquiry will tell quite the story lawyers say thanks cbc and i just wanted to quickly make this
00:00:43.500 video to remind you what a farce this is this is the question was the emergency act justified
00:00:50.140 if you have to ask the answer is no people know what an emergency looks like does this look like
00:00:58.740 an emergency how about this what about that if you have to ask the answer is no so yes it was so
00:01:08.720 urgent it was such an emergency that it took them over two weeks yes it was so urgent it was such an
00:01:17.360 emergency that it took them over two weeks to say you know what we need to call the emergencies act
00:01:22.500 and by the way by the time they actually called this emergencies act the thing happening in windsor
00:01:27.620 had been broken up and the thing happening in coots alberta had been broken up so that argument that
00:01:32.780 they're using no sorry those two demonstrations at the border were already broken up by the time
00:01:38.800 they called the emergencies act in ottawa so yeah your case is not looking good not sure why we need
00:01:44.340 over 120 witnesses to explain the obvious to the country but then again there are so many lies that
00:01:49.380 the canadian establishment has thrown at the trucker convoy to the point where people who watch cbc or read
00:01:54.720 cbc or ctv or global news regularly they hate convoy people thanks cbc for fomenting hatred against
00:02:03.420 people who uh i don't know just want bodily autonomy which is what many people have back now and i would
00:02:09.460 argue thanks to the trucker convoy thanks to people standing up and i just found it funny watching it
00:02:14.580 today we had the opp police force the ottawa police force talking about how big this protest was and
00:02:19.900 you know we had to get all of our team together to stop it did you did you try talking to the
00:02:28.240 protesters you see the way a protest works is the people who show up they all have something that
00:02:35.200 they want to accomplish they all have a reason that they're protesting and they want to talk to
00:02:40.040 public officials about it to see if they can get that changed solve the mandates protest the mandates
00:02:45.120 it's about freedom man it's about any mandates so did you try did the concept of talking to the
00:02:52.820 protesters did that cross your mind during these 14 days before stomping people with police horses did
00:03:00.380 that pass through anyone's skull at any point whatsoever how are we going to get these protesters
00:03:06.260 out of here uh they want to end mandates and they want people to get their jobs back for simply not
00:03:11.720 complying with a medical procedure that they didn't think was a good decision for them so instead
00:03:15.740 of engaging with these protesters you spent easily millions of dollars on extra police forces to stomp
00:03:22.100 out anyone who uh believes in bodily autonomy in a way you hung out the people of ottawa to dry and 0.55
00:03:28.300 said hey you're going to have to put up with this because we are not going to talk to them we don't want
00:03:32.560 to hear what they have to say but as a reminder to canadians who may have been bludgeoned and brainwashed
00:03:38.280 into believing that we don't have freedom in this country anymore yeah we're supposed to be in a
00:03:42.640 democratic society where protests are valued by politicians and they might listen to them this did
00:03:50.820 not happen this did not happen for 14 days and that's when they decided yeah you know what this is an
00:03:58.040 emergency we can't have these people sitting out here because we look like chumps so let's stomp them 1.00
00:04:03.240 out there was no violence there was no arson all of these lies surrounding this there was a literal
00:04:08.700 false flag the first day which was the only thing that hit the news media but you didn't hear the from
00:04:14.140 the truckers on tv you didn't hear from the people attending it from on tv you didn't hear about the
00:04:19.080 thousands upon thousands of people that got laid off because of mandates you didn't hear about any of
00:04:25.040 that but i really can't emphasize enough how much of a farce and circus that this inquiry is and
00:04:31.580 many people might be thinking oh this is our chance to for justice and to see how you know how the
00:04:37.680 freedom fighters are right don't hold your breath guys they're just going to use this inquiry as an
00:04:42.640 excuse to bury us with lies have more and more people take the stand lie lie lie lie lie lie and then the
00:04:48.900 newspaper will take those lies put it in a big basket and say hey look look at this big basket of lies
00:04:54.680 don't you hate these people we will always stand uh with canadians make sure that they are free from
00:05:01.940 harassment and hateful actions and speech we know that the emergencies act wasn't justified
00:05:09.200 and we know that this regime has authoritarian ambitions and the trucker convoy is not the only
00:05:14.980 example of that it was just the worst example of that so especially if you're a freedom fighter type
00:05:19.520 and you're holding out you're holding out that this inquiry is going to be the big day don't hold
00:05:24.960 your breath this is the canadian regime we're dealing with the same regime that stomped people
00:05:30.100 with police horses shot us with grenade guns and all that fun stuff because why because the government
00:05:36.560 wouldn't talk to us this idea that's like some truthful moment is just going to come out guys don't
00:05:42.680 don't count on it and i mean the guy that was representing the people his he says he represents freedom
00:05:48.020 corp or something council to freedom corp which is a organization that represents the protesters
00:05:55.400 that's weird man because guys the question shouldn't be was the emergency act justified
00:06:00.820 was tamara lich getting thrown in jail justified was it justified for jeremy mckenzie and morgan may
00:06:06.840 being thrown in jail multiple times no we know the answer to this question already guys so why are we
00:06:13.860 thinking that this trial is going to give us some some revelation the real question that we should
00:06:18.900 be asking is how the heck do these politicians get away with dismissing us dehumanizing us and not even
00:06:26.240 listening to us they're right we did occupy the city of ottawa and they still didn't listen we have a
00:06:33.780 problem here we definitely have a problem here because we have an authoritarian regime acting like an
00:06:38.640 authoritarian regime but saying hey no we devoted this this is democracy bro that's the problem and
00:06:44.380 that's the little charade that they're keeping alive with this little inquiry into the emergencies act
00:06:49.740 yes we are prestigious we're looking into the facts and by the way the tone of some of this ema hearing is
00:06:56.180 very disturbing you'll you'll hear people talking about we need to make sure this never happens again
00:07:01.140 oh so we can never protest against the federal government ever again canadians need to be very careful
00:07:07.600 of where this trial is headed and what conclusions people might come up with so i know this inquiry
00:07:13.340 might be exciting for a lot of people but don't just sit on the couch and think that this is moving
00:07:17.900 the needle okay there's a lot of work to be done in this country a lot so let's get to it speaking of
