00:00:00.000 Another attack against Christians occurred in Canada on Friday, a terrorist attack targeting
00:00:11.520 an historic church in Regina, Saskatchewan. But chances are, you luckily didn't even know that
00:00:16.900 it happened. That's because the CBC, the state broadcaster, by Monday morning couldn't be
00:00:21.840 bothered to inform the public, the people who pay for their services, that another church in
00:00:25.880 this country had been set on fire. The Blessed Sacrament Parish in Regina, Saskatchewan, built in
00:00:31.580 1905, the oldest Catholic church in Regina, was set on fire by an arsonist on Friday morning.
00:00:37.880 The entire attack was caught on security video, which has been posted to social media. This brings
00:00:42.760 the total number of churches that have been attacked in Canada since 2021 to at least 97. And at least
00:00:49.960 46 churches in this country have been set on fire by arsonists. These terrorist attacks in Canada
00:00:55.840 targeting Christians all happened after false claims were made that the bodies of Indigenous
00:01:01.360 children were found in mass graves at the sites of former Indian residential schools. The legacy
00:01:06.880 media and politicians in this country amplified those false claims and lit the fuse, which has
00:01:12.680 left a trail of burned churches to dot Canada's prairie landscape. Before we get into the video,
00:01:17.480 be sure to drop a like on this video, help us up with subscribing to the True North YouTube channel,
00:01:21.600 and the comment question for the episode is this. Why has the Canadian government refused to open a
00:01:27.540 formal inquiry into the church burnings? Let me know your answer in the comment section below,
00:01:32.480 and let's get into it. Well, on Friday, Regina's Blessed Sacrament Parish became Canada's 97th church
00:01:38.400 since 2021 to be attacked by vandals and arsonists.

00:02:02.360 Now, unlike other terrorist attacks targeting churches in Canada since 2021,
00:02:28.200 this attack was caught on video and released to the public by Father James Henches,
00:02:34.200 one of the priests at the Blessed Sacrament Parish.
00:02:37.160 Now, for those that seek to downplay the attacks against Christians in this country,
00:02:41.260 who think that 96 churches that have been attacked is not enough,
00:02:45.300 and maybe think that it's all a cooked-up story,
00:02:47.960 well, the video evidence of the 97th attack, the 46th arson attempt,
00:02:52.880 might hopefully change their minds.
00:02:54.840 According to local media reports, firefighters were able to arrive on the scene
00:02:58.900 and extinguish the flames at around 3.40 a.m. at the back of the church.
00:03:02.800 Thanks be to God, it appears that the church was saved.
00:03:06.260 True North has been keeping track of each and every attack targeting Christians in this country since 2021.
00:03:12.600 All 97 church attacks have been documented on an interactive map for Canadians to see.
00:03:18.840 But the Trudeau government, it appears, wants nothing to do with this story.
00:03:22.140 A few empty tweets from the Prime Minister and Liberal MPs appears to be the extent to which
00:03:27.220 Liberals are willing to go to do something about the sustained attacks targeting churches in this country.
00:03:33.780 Of course, no formal inquiry has been called to investigate what's actually going on with these church burnings,
00:03:39.020 and only a handful of people have been charged and arrested for arson.
00:03:43.540 We can't do it, man. That's discipline.
00:03:46.600 We've tried nothing and we're all out of ideas.
00:03:49.420 What do you think Justin Trudeau's response would be if 97 mosques were targeted?
00:03:54.840 Or if 97 synagogues were targeted?
00:03:57.160 Or if 97 temples were targeted in this country?
00:04:01.040 Trudeau, of course, would call for a national inquiry, a government task force, a national investigation.
00:04:07.040 He would quickly blame his people for being racist and intolerant.
00:04:10.500 You know, I'm even inclined at this point to believe that if 97 Tim Hortons locations were targeted in this country by vandals and arsonists,
00:04:17.040 the federal government would be more interested in figuring out what's going on with those locations
00:04:21.040 than they appear to be with the 97 churches that have been attacked.
00:04:25.400 But standing up for persecuted Christians and wanting to put an end to a string of anti-Christian terrorism in Canada
00:04:31.140 just doesn't seem to be the political cause du jour for those in charge.
00:04:35.340 And four days after the Blessed Sacrament Church was attacked by this arsonist on camera,
00:04:39.920 the CBC just couldn't bring themselves to inform the public about what happened.
00:04:45.440 At least $1.4 billion a year from the taxpayer to supposedly inform Canadians about what's going on
00:04:51.620 and not a single line on their website about an arsonist attacking an historic church in Regina over the weekend.
00:04:58.280 What did they have time to write about?
00:05:00.000 Well, Joe Biden and Donald Trump, of course, seeing as how that's really important to Canadians.
00:05:05.060 Thank God the CBC is keeping Canadians informed about the stories that really matter.
00:05:10.500 Before this latest attack in Regina, the CBC got around to investigating the string of church fires in this country.
00:05:17.260 In their investigation, they didn't really find anything new, which is kind of the whole point of an investigation,
00:05:23.280 but rather, in typical CBC fashion, well, the CBC found a professor at the University of Calgary
00:05:28.600 to justify and excuse the church burnings.
00:05:31.800 Take a listen to this.
00:05:32.840 At the University of Alberta in Edmonton, Paulina Johnson has been looking into the church fires and why they're happening.
00:05:40.920 I think for many Indigenous peoples, it gives them a voice because for the longest time, Canada hasn't really actually acknowledged us.
00:05:50.780 I am Dr. Paulina Johnson and I am the auntie is in.
00:05:54.540 She's an assistant professor and podcaster.
00:05:57.200 Her work is a deep dive into the injustices faced by Indigenous people and how some fight back.
00:06:04.440 The church fires, they're much more than just arson.
00:06:08.800 It's a greater symbolic kind of narrative of Canada and Canada's relationship to Indigenous peoples, which is really lacking.
00:06:17.020 It's on fire because no one's really addressing the truth of what Indigenous peoples are facing.
00:06:23.700 So it leads to a larger conversation that needs to be had.
00:06:28.980 Back in Morinville, faith remained strong.
00:06:32.340 Parishioners mourned the loss of their church.
00:06:34.980 Now they just want to move on without pointing fingers.
00:06:38.020 Now remember how this all started.
00:06:40.680 The legacy media taking the claims from First Nations bands who used ground-penetrating radar
00:06:46.380 and claimed that they had found the remains of Indigenous children in mass graves at the sites of former Indian residential schools.
00:06:54.080 Now the legacy media, seeing a golden opportunity to bash Catholics in this country
00:06:58.040 and accuse Canada of committing the worst crimes imaginable, simply did that.
00:07:02.500 Without any evidence, without doing any investigations of their own, to find out that in fact, not a single bone has been dug up.
00:07:09.600 Not a single piece of evidence beyond simple ground-penetrating radar findings which show nothing
00:07:14.900 to confirm whether they were writing the truth or simply pushing falsehoods, amplifying these destructive false claims.
00:07:22.720 The Trudeau government, not once pushing back against these First Nations bands,
00:07:26.720 accepted what was being reported in the legacy media
00:07:29.740 and subjected the Canadian public to six months of guilt-shaming.
00:07:33.920 As Canada's flags were inexplicably flown at half-mast for half a year,
00:07:38.520 statues of John A. Macdonald and Queen Victoria and Queen Elizabeth were toppled by protesters.
00:07:43.960 And then, seeing as how the toppling of statues in the erasure of Canadian history wasn't enough for these people,
00:07:49.220 they began to attack churches.
00:07:50.840 All of this has happened under the watchful eye of Justin Trudeau,
00:07:53.960 a man who amplified the false claims about Christians in this country
00:07:57.660 and whose own staffers justified and excused church burnings in this country.
00:08:02.580 This is not normal in Canada.
00:08:04.200 This is a new phenomenon happening in our country.
00:08:07.180 Attacks against Christians and the destruction of churches in Canada
00:08:10.220 is a sign of a deeply sick society,
00:08:13.580 one that has been allowed to grow under the watch of Justin Trudeau.
00:08:17.340 And the imagery of a beautiful historic church set on fire
00:08:21.420 will forever symbolize Justin Trudeau's reign of Canada.
00:08:24.780 All right, everyone, that's going to do it for us today on the show.
00:08:27.080 Thank you so much for tuning in.
