It s an unwritten but very well established rule in professional sports today that athletes aren t allowed to hold their own opinions unless they re advocating for far-left political causes in organizations like Black Lives Matter or advocating for radical gender ideology. After all, the teams these athletes are employed to have no problem forcing their politics on every single fan. Not taking the knee and choosing to not wear a rainbow jersey?

It's an unwritten but very well established rule in professional sports today that athletes
00:00:11.920
aren't allowed to hold their own opinions. Unless, however, those opinions include advocating for
00:00:16.640
far-left political causes in organizations like Black Lives Matter or advocating for radical
00:00:21.760
gender ideology. After all, the teams these athletes are employed to have no problem forcing
0.98
00:00:26.280
their politics on every single fan. Not taking the knee and choosing to not wear a rainbow jersey,
00:00:31.680
that's the kind of stuff that really gets you in trouble these days with the far-left media mob.
00:00:35.640
But there's actually something even worse in the eyes of the Canadian legacy media, it appears.
00:00:39.920
Now, that would be publicly displaying your Christian faith and sharing videos of someone
00:00:43.920
quoting the Bible. Now, Blue Jay's pitcher Anthony Bass has had to learn that lesson the hard way. He
00:00:48.540
has become the victim of what can only be described as a swarm attack by the progressive media in
00:00:54.020
Canada. You see, Bass dared to share a video on Instagram of a Christian influencer quoting
00:01:00.140
scripture as a reason for Christians to boycott brands like Bud Light and Target. Apparently,
00:01:05.820
Bass is guilty of sharing, quote, anti-LGBTQ propaganda, and now fans are calling for the
00:01:12.380
Blue Jays to release Bass, to cut him from the team. But we all know the truth behind this, right?
00:01:17.540
The reality is, the left is in full-on panic mode because the boycotts of brands like Bud Light
00:01:22.020
and Target are proving to be way more successful than they first thought. And the left is now
00:01:26.640
attacking anyone with a public profile who is advocating for these boycotts. Drop a like in
00:01:32.120
the video, help us out by subscribing to the True North YouTube channel. And the comment question for
00:01:35.660
the episode is this, is it time for Canadians to also engage in these brand boycotts? Let me know in
00:01:41.460
the comments and let's get into it. Well, it's almost June and you know what that means. The Rainbow Mafia
1.00
00:01:46.220
are out in full force, demanding that every single Canadian bows down to their political ideology.
00:01:52.220
Dissent on any level will not be tolerated. Now, reading the legacy media headlines about Anthony
00:01:57.100
Bass's social media post, not even that, an Instagram story, which goes away after 24 hours,
00:02:03.220
you might think that he's calling for something really evil, really scary. But before we get into
00:02:07.700
that, let's first look at this so-called crime that Anthony Bass committed, this so-called
00:02:12.180
anti-LGBTQ propaganda that Anthony Bass shared on Instagram to see if really anything here is worthy
0.99
00:02:19.440
of any attention at all. Here's the reason biblically why I believe Christians ought to
0.99
00:02:24.080
be boycotting Target and Bud Light and any other corporation that's pushing the things they're
00:02:28.460
pushing. I think a lot of people make this into a political issue or they say, oh, what's the big
00:02:32.980
deal? If, you know, is it really going to make that big of a difference if I'm shopping there or not
00:02:36.920
shopping there? Here's what the Bible says. It tells us what to do as Christians in Ephesians chapter 5.
00:02:42.180
It says this, take no part in the unfruitful works of darkness, but instead expose them for
00:02:49.960
it is shameful to even talk of the things that they do in secret. So what does that mean to take
00:02:54.560
no part? Well, what's Target do? It's a business. They make money. They sell things. And to take part
00:03:01.140
in that is to take part in that God of Mammon that they're serving and to take part in the darkness
00:03:05.760
that they're purveying and getting out to the world and shoving into children's faces. And to take part
00:03:11.800
in that is to give them your money. And I believe the Bible gives us radical precedent to say, no,
00:03:17.540
we are running from that. And to instead expose those things, to shout it to all the people that
00:03:25.300
have ears to hear that this is evil. This is demonic. We won't stand for it. We're not going
00:03:31.000
to go to the stores anymore and we're not going to give them our money. We're going to let our voice
00:03:34.960
be heard so that people can see the light and so that people can be pulled out of the darkness.
00:03:41.700
Wait, that's it? That's all that this guy said? So he's reading the Bible, telling Christians not
0.79
00:03:48.040
to participate in giving your money to a certain brand. And that is apparently so dangerous that
00:03:54.360
the entire Canadian legacy media must come down full force on this picture for daring to share that
00:04:01.500
video. I mean, just take a look at these headlines. This is from BlogTO. Controversial Toronto Blue
00:04:07.860
Jays player is promoting anti-LGBTQ propaganda. BlogTO themselves follow that up later with another
00:04:15.340
article saying calls grow for Toronto Blue Jays to ditch Anthony Bass for promoting LGBTQ hate.
00:04:22.240
That was, that was apparently LGBTQ hate. Although I'm pretty sure if you rewatch that video that we
00:04:28.800
just watched, he makes no mention of LGBTQ people at all. He's talking about Target. He's talking
0.88
00:04:35.180
about the brands engaging in what Christians obviously view as anti-Christian behavior. But
00:04:41.940
athletes aren't allowed to do that in Canada anymore. They're not allowed to use their faith
0.99
00:04:45.560
as a reason to not participate in what they view as anti-Christian activities from these sporting
00:04:51.520
teams. But I wanted to share this article from Sportsnet owned by Rogers, the same company that owns
00:04:57.120
the Toronto Blue Jays. Blue Jays pitcher Bass's social media account shares anti-2SLGBTQ plus
00:05:04.820
boycott video. And to go even further, Rogers put some sort of trigger warning on an article about
00:05:10.880
their own employee. Support for 2SLGBTQ plus community, it reads, you deserve a world filled with love
00:05:19.040
instead of bias. And when it's hard, you're not alone. Resources, education, and support for gender and
00:05:24.980
sexual identity challenges can be found through PFLAG Canada. If you or someone you know is in need of
00:05:31.260
immediate help and you don't feel comfortable contracting emergency services, crisis hotline
00:05:36.560
numbers can be found here. So Rogers has written a hate article about their own employee sharing a
00:05:42.540
video on social media and then slapped a trigger warning for the 2SLGBTQ plus community underneath that
1.00
00:05:50.380
article. Now these headlines from the Canadian legacy media are in every single outlet. City News,
00:05:56.000
CBC, everybody is talking about this. Everybody is piling on to Anthony Bass for daring to share that
00:06:01.900
obviously non-controversial video. Now despite BlogTO saying that there are calls growing for Anthony
00:06:08.320
Bass to be dropped by the Toronto Blue Jays, the BlogTO article only sources about four tweets from
00:06:14.320
people calling for Anthony Bass to be released. And in their entire article, they could only find one tweet
00:06:19.380
that got over 30 likes. Wow, those are some serious calls there. Consumers across the United States
00:06:24.860
have been engaged in two very successful and impactful brand boycotts over the past few months.
00:06:30.300
The first being a boycott on Bud Light, which was started after the company engaged transgender
1.00
00:06:35.220
influencer Dylan Mulvaney to promote Bud Light as a beer that stands with the 2SLGBT whatever community.
00:06:44.120
2SLGBTQI plus. The Anheuser-Busch stock price took a nosedive and has not recovered since. And if you go
00:06:51.240
to any retailer, well even here in Canada, Bud Light just isn't being purchased anywhere. The second brand
00:06:57.780
boycott is of course Target, the major American retailer who over the past 10 days have taken a
00:07:03.520
market value hit of over 10 billion dollars. Take a look at this article from the New York Post.
00:07:09.060
Target, which has been caught in the middle of America's culture wars over gender, moved its
00:07:13.720
pride section in some southern stores away from the front last week after it said displays were
00:07:18.380
knocked over by protesters who also confronted workers. The retailer also said it would remove
00:07:23.840
items from the collection but did not specify which ones. Among the ones that garnered the most
00:07:29.340
attention were, quote, tuck-friendly women's swimsuits that allow trans women, men, who have
00:07:36.600
not had gender-affirming operations to conceal their genitalia, as well as rainbow-themed children's
00:07:42.880
clothing. So Target's pride collection includes children's clothing with pride sloganeering, as well
00:07:50.240
as women's clothing that are, quote, tuck-friendly. But apparently if you're a Toronto Blue Jays player,
00:07:55.760
you're not allowed to support the brand boycotts over these disgusting displays from these companies.
00:08:01.260
Just look at some of the clothing that Target is selling to kids. It's absurd. So let me try and get
00:08:06.100
this straight. Blue Jays players, according to the company that owns the Blue Jays, aren't allowed to
00:08:11.880
voice their own political opinions on this issue. Meanwhile, the Blue Jays themselves will be hosting
00:08:17.280
what they call Pride Weekend next week. During this Pride Weekend at the Rogers Center, there will be
00:08:23.180
rainbow bunting across the entire stadium. There's going to be a rainbow flag with the slogan,
00:08:29.280
love is love, at home plate. There are going to be drag queen displays all over the stadium.
1.00
00:08:34.640
And every single fan who goes to the game will be given a Blue Jays jersey with a Pride Progress flag
00:08:40.540
attached to the back, a cape on the back of the jersey. The fans will literally be wearing the Pride
00:08:46.140
flag on their back. But conservative Christian athletes aren't allowed to say anything about it.
00:08:52.180
Now this all follows a very bizarre and disturbing trend in sports. It's not just baseball, it's also
00:08:57.620
with hockey too. A few months ago, you might recall the controversy where several NHL players told their
00:09:02.740
NHL teams that they would not be comfortable wearing the Pride warm-up jerseys before the games.
00:09:08.000
Remember when Canadian television personality Sid Sixero had a meltdown on live TV over Ivan Provorov
00:09:13.980
not wanting to wear the rainbow? Oh, by the way, this guy also happens to be an employee of Rogers.
00:09:19.340
Nothing scares me more than any human being who says, I'm not doing this because of my religious
00:09:23.940
beliefs. Because when you looked at people's lives, you normally say that publicly, you'd throw up at
00:09:28.500
what you saw. You would throw up at what you saw. And I have seen that a million times in a lot of
00:09:34.560
different ways. So don't, don't give me that with respect. Don't give me that because no one's perfect.
00:09:40.160
All right. Don't tell me, don't, don't feed me the religious beliefs line. And all of a sudden the NHL is
00:09:44.800
going to back off this. The National Hockey League today needs to find that organization a million
00:09:50.840
dollars and reevaluate how they support gay rights. Because, because that is insulting. That is the
1.00
00:09:55.720
number one trending topic in Canada. That is insulting what happened in Philadelphia. And if the NHL is
00:09:59.860
serious about this, they say they are. We'll see. We'll see how serious they are today. But that whole
00:10:06.140
thing was mishandled. And I, part of me couldn't believe it. Part of me could, considering how the
00:10:10.720
NHL sometimes handles things. Ivan Provorov, the Philadelphia Flyers player that first started this
00:10:16.160
movement to stop wearing the pride jersey, his jerseys were flying off the shelves. And eventually
00:10:21.880
the NHL had to stop the initiative altogether because players were finally fed up with it. What
00:10:27.660
this tells me is that athletes on the whole don't believe the nonsense that the teams they play for
00:10:31.660
are pushing on the fans. Now, my prediction is that Anthony Bass Blue Jays jerseys will be
00:10:36.020
flying off the shelves as well. If not for anything else, just to send a message to Rogers, to the
00:10:42.320
Canadian legacy media, that they are not on the side of the population here. Now, my message to
00:10:46.620
Anthony Bass is to ignore the Canadian legacy media. Ignore the Toronto media elite. The reality is
00:10:53.160
the majority of Canadians stand with Anthony Bass. The majority of Canadians don't believe in forcing
00:10:58.680
transgender ideology onto every single person wherever they go. And actually, it's quite refreshing to see
0.92
00:11:04.520
athletes speak up for once and display their faith without fear. All right, that's going to do it for us
00:11:09.780
