00:00:00.000 Welcome to Canada's most irreverent talk show. This is The Andrew Lawton Show, brought to you by True North.
00:00:10.520 Hello everyone, welcome to another edition of The Andrew Lawton Show here on True North.
00:00:15.620 It is Friday, May 26, 2023. I am, if you've been following True North's coverage in Alberta right now,
00:00:23.740 I mean not right now when I'm recording this, but right now when you're watching this,
00:00:27.880 covering the homestretch of the Alberta provincial election.
00:00:30.920 So we thought we'd do something a little bit differently because we were pre-recording
00:00:34.640 and really delve into a bigger picture issue that I think matters a lot to people in Canada,
00:00:40.400 especially who are consumers of this show and know very well the perils of the mainstream media.
00:00:46.860 But just to give it a bit of a setup here and some context, you may have seen in the course of the National Citizens Inquiry
00:00:53.980 a testimony from one woman, a former employee of where I used to work, Global News,
00:00:58.360 who spoke about the mainstream media pushing an agenda. Take a look.
00:01:03.860 We do things like on the 5 o'clock news where we would just say,
00:01:07.080 and sadly, another business has shut down due to COVID.
00:01:10.820 And we were not actually holding anyone to account saying, is what we're doing fair?
00:01:16.620 You know, when people are using plexiglass and sitting outside,
00:01:19.900 and that, you know, you can go up to the counter in order, but you can't have a waitress come to you
00:01:24.620 or you've got a mask, you know, all the things that didn't make any sense.
00:01:28.380 We were just shoving it in your face like it was something you needed to accept.
00:01:31.860 Rather than questioning, is this really making sense for a business owner,
00:01:37.200 for this person's livelihood?
00:01:39.420 You know, we never stood up for the people.
00:01:42.280 We just, as far as I'm concerned, shoved propaganda in your face.
00:01:45.620 That woman is Anita Krishna, whose outspoken criticism of the COVID era
00:01:51.820 and the COVID regime ultimately cost her her job in the control room at Global News.
00:01:57.040 And then she had a very powerful and, I think, very impactful testimony
00:02:00.880 before the National Citizens Inquiry last week,
00:02:04.300 and joins us now to expand on that and perhaps delve even further into it.
00:02:09.500 Anita Krishna, it's wonderful to talk to you.
00:02:11.700 Thanks so much for coming on today.
00:02:13.540 Well, thank you. Thanks for inviting me.
00:02:15.940 Now, you and I were just chatting a little bit before the show began,
00:02:19.460 and I've mentioned it to my audience, but just so everyone's on the same page,
00:02:22.560 I used to work for that very same company.
00:02:24.760 I did a talk radio show for Chorus, which ended up merging with Global.
00:02:29.980 And the fact that my show was cancelled, I think,
00:02:32.820 says a fair bit about the relationship near the end of it.
00:02:36.260 It's also the company that Danielle Smith ultimately walked away from,
00:02:40.320 having increasing issues with the micromanaging of what she was allowed to talk about on her show,
00:02:45.400 and you and I, though, were in very different cases because you weren't even on camera at Global.
00:02:50.660 You weren't even being punished for things you said on air.
00:02:54.320 So what happened?
00:02:55.120 That's a very good point.
00:02:58.020 I mean, I've said this many times in other podcasts.
00:03:00.840 I was a technician.
00:03:01.980 I'm a technical director.
00:03:03.620 I press the buttons and make the newscast happen.
00:03:06.260 And I was just questioning why we were not reporting such basic things to the public,
00:03:14.960 as I've said many times before.
00:03:16.860 But in no way, shape, or form was I airing this stuff.
00:03:21.680 I mean, I was not broadcasting my own material.
00:03:25.520 Well, something happened later, which I could talk about.
00:03:27.960 But at the time, I was just asking questions.
00:03:31.060 Like, we are missing pieces of the COVID narrative.
00:03:33.740 Why are we only telling this one side of the story?
00:03:37.000 So it is, what do you do in journalism?
00:03:40.160 You ask questions.
00:03:41.020 That's the whole foundation of journalism, is to present both sides.
00:03:44.560 And it was quite clear we were not doing that.
00:03:46.980 And I was just asking questions.
00:03:48.580 That's it.
00:03:49.520 Yeah, and it was increasingly clear through the COVID era,
00:03:53.140 which I can't really come up with a better name for it,
00:03:55.460 that all of a sudden, that natural skeptical instinct that journalists have,
00:04:00.240 or are supposed to have, that contrarian impulse to challenge authority, just vanished.
00:04:05.180 And a lot of the early COVID journalism, and to some extent,
00:04:08.400 maybe you can excuse this in the immediate beginning of this,
00:04:12.160 but a lot of it was just stenography.
00:04:13.980 It was just parroting whatever edict had come down from Teresa Tam,
00:04:18.160 or Justin Trudeau, or Doug Ford, or whoever the Ontario person was at the beginning.
00:04:22.600 The name escapes me.
00:04:23.580 But ultimately, that was, I think, what a lot of the early COVID journalism was.
00:04:28.440 Well, a great deal of it, you could probably argue, is parroting, right, with any story.
00:04:34.800 So, like, if the newsroom is going with a certain angle on a car accident or something,
00:04:39.760 if they say five injured, and it was caused by a drunk driver,
00:04:43.220 then as all the other newscasts go along, then that's what we report.
00:04:47.040 If we get some information in the newsroom that,
00:04:49.860 oh, actually, it wasn't a drunk driver, it was something else caused the accident,
00:04:54.120 then we would update that information.
00:04:55.940 So, there is a degree of parroting, because you do go with what the general consensus is,
00:05:01.380 but this was parroting to the detriment of humanity.
00:05:06.420 And that's what we needed to ask, what's going on.
00:05:08.920 Yeah, and let me ask about your trajectory here,
00:05:11.200 because from my understanding, you were a skeptic from,
00:05:14.700 I don't know if it was day one, but pretty close to day one.
00:05:17.460 I was, well, I mean, people might laugh and say it was my gut instinct,
00:05:23.460 but it was just like, wow, you know, like, you know, in March,
00:05:27.140 when we all went crazy in the beginning of March,
00:05:29.580 spring break is canceled, kids have to stay home for an extra two weeks,
00:05:33.180 and it was just scaring you and scaring you,
00:05:35.520 and especially, I felt they were manipulating this aspect of children.
00:05:39.000 Children can get it, so what are you going to do?
00:05:41.380 I'm a mother, you were trying to scare mothers,
00:05:44.180 and it didn't seem like a legitimate fear.
00:05:46.700 It seemed like, what are you, what are you, how can we all do in all this?
00:05:50.420 The airlines and the sports teams and all the, and everybody's cracking down,
00:05:54.840 the borders, something's going on.
00:05:57.000 It's too systematic.
00:05:58.700 That's what made me question from the beginning.
00:06:02.400 Yeah, and it was interesting, because I remember it was the March 13th,
00:06:07.080 if I recall, which was a Friday, and things were starting to brew,
00:06:11.460 but hadn't really gotten to the point where things were canceled,
00:06:14.340 and I remember it was almost a bit of a joke.
00:06:17.360 Like, I was recording a bunch of interviews in Toronto,
00:06:20.740 and, you know, it was all that sort of joking, like,
00:06:23.520 oh, do we tap elbows instead of shaking hands?
00:06:25.980 And there was sort of a collegiality to it.
00:06:28.500 There was a, it was this strange novelty,
00:06:30.760 because it hadn't really started to affect us in the way that it would
00:06:34.660 for the next, you know, two, two and a half, three, and beyond years.
00:06:38.800 And I think for people in the media, there was, again, this,
00:06:43.580 okay, do we report on this like we report on a flood,
00:06:47.100 or like we report on a wildfire, where we're all in this together,
00:06:50.860 it's an emergency, our job is as a public broadcaster,
00:06:53.900 or do we start to be journalists?
00:06:56.000 And I don't think many really went into that category.
00:06:58.820 I think they treated it as disaster journalism and crisis journalism,
00:07:03.240 which I think is inherently deferential.
00:07:05.940 Yeah, I mean, sure.
00:07:10.420 What do you mean exactly?
00:07:11.980 You wish that you would have seen more pushback against the narrative.
00:07:14.760 Well, look, I'm, just to even put myself out there,
00:07:18.060 I mean, I, in the early days, had the view that I don't know what's going on.
00:07:21.560 I'm not an epidemiologist.
00:07:22.820 I was seeing the photos of, you know,
00:07:24.740 what we're told to be bodies piling up in China, later Iran and Italy.
00:07:29.540 And I'll admit, I wasn't scared.
00:07:31.600 There wasn't a personal fear.
00:07:32.760 But I didn't go to the, you know, is this really real?
00:07:36.440 I sort of took the attitude that when your house is on fire, you, you know,
00:07:40.320 or it looks like it's on fire, you try to treat that before you start to say,
00:07:43.540 well, did someone else cause it?
00:07:44.980 And then I think it was, you know, certainly within the first few weeks,
00:07:49.100 after two weeks to flatten the curve was proven to be a lie,
00:07:53.420 that I started to become a lot, well, not started.
00:07:56.960 I started to become entirely intolerant of this, the mainstream narrative.
00:08:02.260 And I think even though there were things I was personally willing to do,
00:08:05.840 I didn't like that we went to coercion.
00:08:07.840 So to put that into the broader context,
00:08:09.980 I think for a lot of the mainstream media,
00:08:12.600 for almost all of the mainstream media,
00:08:14.560 that transition never happened.
00:08:16.340 That transition from, you know, accepting the narrative
00:08:19.420 to questioning the narrative still has not happened.
00:08:22.160 Yeah, no, and they're not going to admit to it now.
00:08:26.900 What are they going to do now,
00:08:28.160 now that all this information has come out?
00:08:30.420 I mean, I admit that in the beginning when we'd see pictures from Italy
00:08:33.140 or we'd see pictures from China,
00:08:35.140 we were like, okay, something's happening.
00:08:37.780 Let's just be cautious.
00:08:38.680 Let's just be careful.
00:08:39.700 But to move full steam ahead and to stay at home
00:08:43.080 and self-isolate and flatten the curve,
00:08:44.980 we were doing all that March 11th, 12th, 13th, 14th,
00:08:48.160 that whole week we were telling people to social distance.
00:08:51.260 This campaign was all good to go.
00:08:56.680 Every element of this had already almost been structured
00:08:59.440 and they just unleashed it and said, report.
00:09:03.020 That's what it felt like to me.
00:09:05.040 And you're right about coercion.
00:09:06.980 At the point where the truckers stood up
00:09:09.500 and people were going against the mandates,
00:09:11.640 that's the point where you say,
00:09:13.140 hey, the people who were going to take it already took it.
00:09:15.860 So back off.
00:09:17.600 And the fact that they hid medications from people
00:09:20.220 and prevented them from getting better
00:09:22.020 all the while trying to pretend that you were looking after our health,
00:09:25.600 I didn't like that either.
00:09:27.120 And the fact that they hid that from you,
00:09:28.920 that we at Global News absolutely hid that from you.
00:09:33.280 There's no way we were going to talk about hydroxychloroquine,
00:09:36.560 fluvoxamine, ivermectin, vitamin D, quercetin,
00:09:40.660 all these things we've come to know now.
00:09:42.180 Why would we not tell you that?
00:09:43.640 Don't we care about your health?
00:09:45.660 No, we don't.
00:09:46.860 Let me ask you where you think it comes from.
00:09:49.500 Because I think when you see a lot of the people now
00:09:52.560 that are really, really fanatical about masks,
00:09:56.400 about getting the 17th booster, about all of that,
00:09:59.460 these people I don't think are evil.
00:10:01.740 I think these people are terrified.
00:10:03.540 I think a lot of the people that we...
00:10:05.140 I'm going to qualify this.
00:10:06.360 I think a lot of the people are genuinely terrified.
00:10:09.180 And I think it's the media and politicians that have stoked that fear,
00:10:12.740 that they should look at everyone around them
00:10:14.740 as being disease vectors rather than human beings.
00:10:18.200 When you look at the people in your newsroom
00:10:20.300 and in other newsrooms in Canada,
00:10:22.120 I'm curious which camp you think these people fall into.
00:10:24.920 Are they control freaks?
00:10:26.820 Or are they people that bought into the fear themselves
00:10:29.680 and are trying to pay that forward?
00:10:31.300 And that fear becomes the lens through which
00:10:33.840 they view these stories and view the world.
00:10:36.380 I think so.
00:10:37.320 I think you've touched on something there.
00:10:38.880 It's not to say that everybody's evil and conspiring, right?
00:10:41.880 So when people say,
00:10:43.020 oh, you got all that liberal money.
00:10:45.040 Well, we didn't get the money.
00:10:46.460 Like we're just the minions that work in the newsroom.
00:10:48.800 Nobody's handing us a check.
00:10:50.040 That is from above.
00:10:51.980 Somebody's subsidies, kickbacks, tax breaks,
00:10:54.840 or something else is happening there.
00:10:56.500 So people sometimes would say,
00:10:58.340 oh, well, you got a check
00:10:59.220 and that's why you reported that way.
00:11:00.820 No, no, they didn't.
00:11:02.180 Actually, they didn't.
00:11:03.420 It is what you believe, right?
00:11:05.540 Are you really going to believe that you're part of a system
00:11:08.440 of something that's harming people?
00:11:10.900 So when you put your little provincial health officer on the air
00:11:13.520 and she's telling you to do all these things to stay safe,
00:11:16.460 you're probably likely to believe it
00:11:18.640 because it's incomprehensible to believe
00:11:20.520 that there could be another narrative.
00:11:23.800 It's hard to believe.
00:11:24.940 So I do get that.
00:11:26.120 So a lot of people were just probably like,
00:11:28.080 I guess we have to do this to keep safe.
00:11:30.260 But the thing is,
00:11:32.300 you're not allowed to do that when you're a journalist.
00:11:34.940 When you're a journalist,
00:11:36.180 if you hear about a botched investigation
00:11:38.400 at the Wuhan laboratory
00:11:40.220 and one of the guys involved in the investigation,
00:11:43.840 Peter Daszak,
00:11:44.920 actually works at the lab with Echo Health Alliance,
00:11:48.900 but he's part of the WHO investigation.
00:11:51.300 Then you see an article that comes out and says,
00:11:54.000 lab leak unlikely.
00:11:56.700 You have to question that.
00:11:58.440 That is your job.
00:11:59.960 We don't work in a drugstore.
00:12:01.740 We don't work in a plumbing company
00:12:04.780 or something like that
00:12:05.520 where we're allowed to shrug our shoulders and go,
00:12:08.240 we don't really know.
00:12:09.520 It is our job to tell the public the truth.
00:12:15.280 So when you hide that truth,
00:12:18.420 you are doing a disservice to the public.
00:12:20.740 All of a sudden you are not news anymore.
00:12:23.080 What are you?
00:12:24.860 You are a tool for misinformation.
00:12:26.560 Did your skepticism of the mainstream media begin with COVID
00:12:32.340 or was this already brewing in you and your experience
00:12:35.560 before we got to March 2020?
00:12:38.260 I have to say I am not any smarter than anyone else.
00:12:44.440 I didn't really think anything.
00:12:46.300 I feel a little bit like Tucker Carlson.
00:12:49.020 You went in and just pushed the buttons and that was the job.
00:12:51.600 I just went there and said the things
00:12:53.200 and whenever I saw there was a fire or a mudslide
00:12:55.800 or a boat overturned or whatever, a shooting,
00:12:58.940 we would go out there and try to news gather as normal
00:13:01.280 and then I'd put it on the air.
00:13:02.660 I never thought we were lying
00:13:04.080 and I don't think people there thought they were.
00:13:06.640 It's that there's another element to what's going on in the world
00:13:09.540 that we're only just sort of realizing
00:13:11.300 that perhaps there are criminals maybe running things
00:13:16.980 feeding us information that we didn't really think about before.
00:13:22.500 Like I remember working through the anthrax scare
00:13:25.120 and working through all that kind of stuff
00:13:26.800 and then when you kind of look a little bit deeper
00:13:28.820 as to who might be behind those things,
00:13:31.080 it's terrifying.
00:13:32.780 It is actually terrifying.
00:13:34.540 I did want to say one thing.
00:13:37.080 When I was working in the newsroom,
00:13:38.980 you know, you get the, I'm sure you worked on this,
00:13:41.260 the ENPS and the AP wires would flap
00:13:43.880 and in the radio system they use Burley.
00:13:47.080 They use all kinds of broadcast software.
00:13:49.000 Yeah, it's just like this raw, steady, nonstop stream
00:13:52.860 of headlines and these small, yeah, little nubs of stories.
00:13:56.800 Nubs of stories, you'd get your wires, right?
00:13:58.660 So you'd get the first right through,
00:13:59.960 second right through, whatever, right?
00:14:01.320 And like it might say five dead, Chicago fire
00:14:04.780 and then you get another update, you know,
00:14:06.460 five dead, two wounded, whatever, right?
00:14:08.420 These are the wires.
00:14:08.940 Yeah, and then the next one is, you know,
00:14:10.120 Miley Cyrus gets divorced and then-
00:14:12.100 Yeah, yeah, you're constantly seeing these things
00:14:14.520 and I remember being at work on the weekend
00:14:16.100 and I saw Pfizer approves vaccine for five to 11 year olds
00:14:20.080 and I was like, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no,
00:14:22.380 this can't be right.
00:14:23.280 Like how can this be right?
00:14:24.420 Because no matter what you think,
00:14:26.480 this isn't even approved by Health Canada, this vaccine,
00:14:29.640 this Cormenati stuff isn't even being made
00:14:31.880 but that's another thing we don't tell you, right?
00:14:33.720 We just say, just shoot it up.
00:14:36.000 But anyway, when I saw that for children, as you know,
00:14:39.100 I was like, I just don't want people to mess with children
00:14:42.460 and pregnant women.
00:14:43.320 Those are my two things, right?
00:14:44.720 Like they can't make the decisions for themselves
00:14:46.840 and I was like, how can this be?
00:14:49.360 How can this be?
00:14:50.180 And I was starting to say in the newsroom to people,
00:14:53.060 this, how can this be approved, right?
00:14:54.900 And then you just, it's on the wire
00:14:56.640 so you look like a crazy person.
00:14:58.980 But the only, I just only recently found out
00:15:02.020 the AP wires obviously are Reuters own AP
00:15:06.460 and then the Rothschild family owns Reuters.
00:15:10.360 So I don't know, is this information coming from top down
00:15:14.100 and it's meant to make us report what they want us to?
00:15:18.440 Yeah, and I think that a lot of the time
00:15:22.880 when people make accusations of media bias,
00:15:26.140 they don't understand the system.
00:15:30.020 And I don't mean that like the system
00:15:31.460 in the big sort of man behind the curtain way.
00:15:33.280 I just mean they don't understand the structure
00:15:34.540 and how it works.
00:15:36.040 And you're right, you know, when a reporter is going out
00:15:38.540 and interviewing someone at the scene of a car crash,
00:15:41.060 I don't think the reporter is being necessarily biased.
00:15:44.300 I think they got an assignment.
00:15:45.660 But I think often bias is most readily apparent
00:15:48.240 and what were they supposed to be at
00:15:50.860 before that car crash came?
00:15:52.120 What are they not covering?
00:15:53.740 What are they not focusing on?
00:15:55.160 And it's not just sides in a story.
00:15:56.960 Sometimes it's stories all together.
00:15:59.680 I mean, just to look at the COVID example,
00:16:02.220 Sweden, we know, fared better
00:16:05.480 on pretty much all of the key pandemic metrics
00:16:08.240 than most countries that did lockdown.
00:16:11.020 Sweden didn't do a lockdown.
00:16:12.200 That's a story that we weren't hearing
00:16:13.600 as a reference point.
00:16:14.720 So when media outlets are telling us
00:16:16.820 that there's only one way to do this
00:16:18.440 and the questions they were asking
00:16:20.540 when they got really feisty with politicians
00:16:22.600 like Jason Kenney or Aaron O'Toole is,
00:16:24.880 why are you not supporting lockdowns?
00:16:26.580 Why are you not supporting vaccine mandates?
00:16:28.460 Like the media was really going in and saying,
00:16:30.860 why are you not doing X, Y, Z
00:16:33.020 as though that's the benchmark
00:16:34.580 by which all these politicians should be acting?
00:16:37.260 And again, I don't think that individual people
00:16:39.700 were being fed a script that came down from like,
00:16:42.660 you know, Klaus Schwab or Bill Gates,
00:16:44.660 you know, that filters down to,
00:16:45.840 you know, the local reporter in Peterborough.
00:16:48.200 But I do believe that journalism
00:16:49.560 is increasingly attracting a certain type of person.
00:16:53.760 Yes, you're right.
00:16:54.680 I mean, when you see press conferences,
00:16:58.300 you see these softball questions thrown at the people,
00:17:02.120 especially the public health officer.
00:17:04.180 I felt like all the reporters were pretending
00:17:06.000 to ask the tough questions,
00:17:07.100 but they were very supportive of the narrative, right?
00:17:09.920 And they're very mean to people like Daniel Smith
00:17:13.060 and very disrespectful to people
00:17:14.960 that have a different point of view.
00:17:17.120 And you can see this in certain interviews.
00:17:19.320 I talked about this in a speech I gave in the convoy.
00:17:21.740 They had a guy on CTV who was just spoken to so rudely
00:17:26.320 because he supported the convoy.
00:17:27.980 All of a sudden, people had license
00:17:30.440 to act like a total to people.
00:17:33.620 The respect that you would have
00:17:35.420 when you were interviewing someone,
00:17:37.120 I felt like a lot of reporters
00:17:38.740 are not showing that respect.
00:17:40.240 You can hear it in the press scrums
00:17:41.740 when they're asking questions.
00:17:43.400 So rude, so unprofessional now.
00:17:47.060 Yeah, but you're right.
00:17:47.980 It's not like we're getting,
00:17:49.000 oh, ta-ta-ta-ta on the wires from Klaus Schwab.
00:17:51.780 It just made me think, the Reuters, the AP,
00:17:55.460 where is that information coming from specifically with COVID?
00:17:58.540 Because with COVID, they have penetrated everything.
00:18:04.660 You know what I mean?
00:18:05.280 They have.
00:18:05.860 They have come in,
00:18:08.080 and now all of a sudden,
00:18:09.140 we see all our institutions are not backing us up.
00:18:12.960 All the lawsuits, all this, all that,
00:18:15.420 all the people trying so hard to get on with their lives
00:18:18.520 and have some justice in their lives.
00:18:20.560 There's big forces squashing them down.
00:18:23.220 So there's big forces behind news.
00:18:26.720 Yeah, and I think that there is an additional dimension
00:18:30.340 to that that's always troubled me,
00:18:32.320 which is just the increasing targeting of certain journalists.
00:18:37.880 So we see this in Canada right now,
00:18:39.260 where you've got outlets that are hiring
00:18:40.900 a climate change reporter and a climate change bureau,
00:18:44.240 and you've got government grant money towards this.
00:18:46.920 And it's like if you invest money
00:18:48.780 in people covering a very politically charged issue like that,
00:18:52.280 you know that their job is to advance one particular narrative about it.
00:18:56.940 Again, their approach is not to say,
00:18:58.840 hmm, is all of the so-called scientific consensus
00:19:01.440 about climate change really there?
00:19:04.460 Are humans actually causing it?
00:19:06.700 No, they're going in with an agenda,
00:19:08.940 which is to say that,
00:19:10.300 yes, we're killing the world.
00:19:11.780 Why are politicians not doing more?
00:19:13.580 Why are we not getting taxed more?
00:19:14.800 Why are we doing that?
00:19:15.600 And there you have, I think,
00:19:16.660 a fairly brazen way that the media is,
00:19:21.500 by its design and by its structure,
00:19:23.040 pushing a narrative.
00:19:24.340 Yes, they are pushing a narrative now.
00:19:26.460 And I would just caution people
00:19:27.620 to be very skeptical
00:19:29.560 and look for themselves
00:19:30.940 when they're hearing this type of thing.
00:19:32.520 It seems to be all part of an agenda.
00:19:34.800 You really, your basic reporting
00:19:36.340 is you get one site, you get the other,
00:19:38.380 you link it somehow, you tell a story,
00:19:40.120 you leave it there for the viewer to decide.
00:19:41.920 If you are getting pushed,
00:19:44.800 you are now made to feel guilty for existing.
00:19:47.940 So if you take a hot shower,
00:19:49.320 fly on a plane and drive a car,
00:19:51.480 well, you're killing the world.
00:19:52.940 No, you're not.
00:19:54.920 It's the economic policies
00:19:56.580 and all the back underhanded deals
00:19:59.480 that are going on
00:20:00.200 that are driving your gas prices
00:20:02.040 the way they are.
00:20:02.940 Your gas is not supposed to be $2 a liter
00:20:05.040 and gas is not bad.
00:20:07.060 And so don't let anybody manipulate you
00:20:09.100 into thinking that your carbon footprint.
00:20:11.920 Why don't our bosses
00:20:13.780 look at their own carbon footprint?
00:20:16.000 You know, stop flying around
00:20:17.080 all over the damn place.
00:20:18.800 You know, it's like
00:20:20.180 you are now made to feel guilty.
00:20:22.820 And what they do
00:20:24.040 is make the common person
00:20:25.160 feel like the criminal.
00:20:26.600 Oh, you're killing grandma.
00:20:28.160 Oh, you're a carbon footprint.
00:20:29.820 Oh, you're not like Mr. Environmental.
00:20:31.940 We are just living our lives.
00:20:33.500 We're not wrecking the earth here.
00:20:35.220 You know, I don't know.
00:20:36.580 No, you're right.
00:20:37.440 I mean, when I was in Davos
00:20:39.040 covering the World Economic Forum there,
00:20:41.040 there was one day where I was, you know,
00:20:43.100 running late because I was in my Uber
00:20:45.220 and I was stuck behind
00:20:46.240 all the Mercedes and Beamer limos.
00:20:48.680 And then I finally get to Davos
00:20:50.060 just in time for the session
00:20:51.220 on why we all need to use electric cars
00:20:53.140 and watch our carbon footprint.
00:20:55.440 And I'm like, well, hang on.
00:20:56.380 Why was I stuck in traffic
00:20:57.620 of all you guys getting here with this?
00:21:00.260 Just to talk about
00:21:01.440 kind of the reckoning of this for a moment.
00:21:02.960 You mentioned something
00:21:03.640 in your sub stack this week
00:21:05.280 that I wanted to ask you about.
00:21:06.920 You say, I wanted to say at this point,
00:21:09.320 if you are still walking around clueless
00:21:11.420 as to the harms
00:21:12.280 that have been done in society,
00:21:14.100 my sympathy for you has run out.
00:21:17.680 And that actually I found quite striking
00:21:19.820 because I've always taken the view
00:21:22.160 or tried to take the view
00:21:23.340 that, you know,
00:21:23.900 it's better to show up late to the party
00:21:25.300 than to not come at all.
00:21:26.440 And, you know, for example,
00:21:27.760 Rupa Subramanya,
00:21:28.900 a colleague of mine at True North,
00:21:30.660 was a supporter of vaccine mandates
00:21:32.720 in August of 2021.
00:21:34.140 But by February of 2022,
00:21:36.460 she was one of the leading voices
00:21:38.460 talking about the harms
00:21:39.720 of vaccine mandates
00:21:41.200 and covering the trucker convoy.
00:21:43.500 And there are other people as well
00:21:45.300 that, you know,
00:21:45.840 might have bought into the panic early on
00:21:47.680 and eventually came around.
00:21:49.300 So when did your sympathy end?
00:21:52.880 And, you know,
00:21:53.460 I'm putting you on the spot
00:21:54.560 by plucking out one quote,
00:21:56.120 and I think it's a fair enough position.
00:21:58.100 But when did that end?
00:21:59.340 When do you think you no longer have
00:22:00.880 an excuse to have been in the dark?
00:22:04.140 You don't have an excuse
00:22:05.560 to be in the dark
00:22:07.060 if you are a journalist.
00:22:08.820 So if you are working in the newsroom,
00:22:10.260 I'm sorry,
00:22:10.680 you can't sit there and go,
00:22:11.720 I didn't know.
00:22:12.640 I'm sorry.
00:22:13.840 You know, like,
00:22:14.360 and I understand that
00:22:16.040 things can come too late.
00:22:18.220 Just because you are a journalist
00:22:19.340 doesn't mean that you know everything.
00:22:21.060 But you have an obligation
00:22:22.560 if you work in a newsroom
00:22:24.260 or for a news organization
00:22:25.540 to look into the other side
00:22:26.940 rather than poo-poo it
00:22:28.780 and really management over at Global
00:22:30.440 squashed it.
00:22:31.220 When I say my sympathy for you
00:22:33.320 had run out,
00:22:34.360 I think I wrote that,
00:22:36.180 I remember when I wrote that,
00:22:38.120 I had just watched, like,
00:22:39.560 so much of the National Citizens Inquiry.
00:22:42.740 And it was testimony after testimony
00:22:44.680 and story after story.
00:22:46.900 But prior to that,
00:22:48.040 last year I'd worked
00:22:49.000 on the Citizens Hearing also.
00:22:51.020 So I had heard from,
00:22:52.640 oh God,
00:22:53.460 person after person,
00:22:54.500 somebody just trying to watch
00:22:55.360 their kid play hockey.
00:22:56.520 And they were thrown out
00:22:57.820 by cops, you know,
00:22:59.360 like they were a criminal.
00:23:00.860 And when we heard from priests.
00:23:03.060 So,
00:23:04.440 I'm done.
00:23:05.760 My sympathy for you
00:23:06.820 has run out.
00:23:07.840 If you want to live
00:23:08.540 in this ignorance
00:23:09.180 and go,
00:23:09.520 oh, we took our shots.
00:23:11.680 I'm tired of that.
00:23:13.260 Because I have friends like that.
00:23:14.800 They're like,
00:23:15.020 we don't,
00:23:15.420 we don't really know.
00:23:16.500 We haven't heard anything.
00:23:17.960 Why haven't you heard anything?
00:23:20.260 Because they don't,
00:23:21.260 they want to see it on the news
00:23:22.660 coming from your polished
00:23:23.980 global news set
00:23:25.260 or a CTV set.
00:23:26.320 They're not going to go
00:23:26.980 watch rumble videos.
00:23:28.940 And that's the problem.
00:23:30.100 Like that's how we got
00:23:31.060 in this mess
00:23:31.700 in the first place.
00:23:32.420 If you don't do
00:23:33.100 your own due diligence
00:23:34.180 and start looking now,
00:23:35.860 by now you know
00:23:36.980 something's wrong.
00:23:38.620 So don't sit there
00:23:39.620 and pretend you don't know now.
00:23:41.280 Yeah.
00:23:41.480 And I think that
00:23:42.300 you are right about that.
00:23:43.620 And that's been my fear
00:23:44.540 with the National Citizens Inquiry.
00:23:46.180 I think a lot of the testimony
00:23:47.280 that we've heard
00:23:48.080 has been incredibly evocative.
00:23:50.340 It's been incredibly heartfelt.
00:23:51.760 But, you know,
00:23:52.380 in my view
00:23:53.080 from an independent media perspective,
00:23:54.860 these stories
00:23:55.520 we've already been telling.
00:23:56.700 You know,
00:23:56.840 we've already been paying attention.
00:23:58.040 So this isn't new information
00:23:59.340 for a lot of us.
00:24:01.000 And the people
00:24:01.700 that it is new information for
00:24:03.100 are not the ones watching it.
00:24:04.280 They're not the ones
00:24:04.860 who are going to read the report
00:24:05.900 because it isn't coming
00:24:06.880 from, you know,
00:24:08.000 the so-called official channels,
00:24:09.700 you know,
00:24:09.980 capital M,
00:24:11.060 capital S,
00:24:11.700 capital M.
00:24:12.560 So I'm wondering
00:24:14.020 if you have any ideas
00:24:16.020 for how to break
00:24:16.820 through that logjam.
00:24:18.100 And I mean,
00:24:18.580 I always viewed talk radio
00:24:20.060 as being a very useful platform
00:24:22.580 because it kind of straddled
00:24:24.120 the mainstream media,
00:24:25.660 independent media divide.
00:24:27.040 You could always get away
00:24:27.940 with being a bit more contrarian
00:24:29.740 and a bit more heterodox
00:24:31.680 on talk radio
00:24:32.580 until, you know,
00:24:33.660 Global decided you couldn't.
00:24:34.920 And until talk radio became,
00:24:37.120 you know,
00:24:37.300 the way you champion wokeness,
00:24:38.840 which the audience doesn't like,
00:24:40.360 which is why the numbers
00:24:41.100 are in the toilet.
00:24:42.360 And, you know,
00:24:43.000 I do a podcast.
00:24:43.660 I can talk about
00:24:44.400 whatever I want.
00:24:45.140 I realize
00:24:45.740 that the majority
00:24:47.320 of my audience
00:24:48.300 already resonates
00:24:49.680 with what I'm talking about
00:24:51.800 in some way.
00:24:52.800 And that doesn't mean
00:24:53.260 I'm preaching to the choir,
00:24:54.920 but I fear the same
00:24:56.460 as for the inquiry here
00:24:57.540 where the people
00:24:58.740 that need to see this
00:24:59.520 aren't the ones watching it.
00:25:00.640 So what can you do about that?
00:25:02.760 That's the question
00:25:03.700 of the century, isn't it?
00:25:05.000 That the people
00:25:05.900 who are watching
00:25:06.660 the National Citizens' Inquiry
00:25:08.020 and reading True North
00:25:09.500 and listening to all your podcasts
00:25:10.900 and people who even listen to me
00:25:12.760 are people interested.
00:25:13.700 They already know
00:25:15.380 they're already with us.
00:25:16.820 Now, how do we break
00:25:17.680 that other side?
00:25:18.820 I don't know,
00:25:19.160 maybe you have an idea too,
00:25:20.740 but it's like,
00:25:21.720 why don't we call
00:25:23.580 the anchors and producers
00:25:25.780 that we used to work with
00:25:26.940 and say,
00:25:27.320 please,
00:25:27.840 if you believed
00:25:28.680 in everything
00:25:29.160 you were talking about
00:25:30.280 and telling us,
00:25:31.600 please come and sit down
00:25:32.820 and talk to us
00:25:33.680 and we'll shoot it
00:25:34.800 live to tape,
00:25:35.760 no edits.
00:25:37.080 Let's go.
00:25:38.040 Let's talk.
00:25:39.100 The time is now.
00:25:40.520 So when,
00:25:41.180 maybe that's how you break
00:25:42.380 the echo chamber
00:25:43.560 I suppose
00:25:44.320 is to say,
00:25:45.160 okay,
00:25:45.420 I'm going to sit down
00:25:46.400 with somebody
00:25:46.860 from the mainstream.
00:25:48.800 You were my friends once
00:25:50.360 and you,
00:25:51.860 you threw me out
00:25:52.800 of the building,
00:25:53.780 right?
00:25:54.100 So that,
00:25:55.120 I literally was thrown
00:25:56.080 out of that building.
00:25:56.860 But anyway,
00:25:57.840 for worrying about miscarriages,
00:25:59.900 how dare I?
00:26:00.800 You know what I mean?
00:26:01.620 So why,
00:26:02.600 let's invite them.
00:26:03.760 Let's invite them right now.
00:26:05.020 So I invite any anchor,
00:26:06.560 any producer
00:26:07.220 that I used to work with,
00:26:09.380 any assignment editor,
00:26:10.540 the news director,
00:26:11.160 anybody in charge
00:26:12.020 of your editorial content
00:26:13.600 in a newscast
00:26:14.460 to come and sit down
00:26:15.260 and tell me
00:26:15.960 why you suppressed information
00:26:19.200 on hydroxychloroquine,
00:26:20.620 ivermectin.
00:26:21.340 Just tell me why.
00:26:22.860 Like,
00:26:23.180 show me some evidence.
00:26:24.400 Maybe show me some stuff
00:26:25.380 on masking
00:26:26.060 that why you think it works.
00:26:28.120 Show me some studies
00:26:28.920 because part of my,
00:26:29.980 in my termination letter
00:26:31.060 was like,
00:26:31.420 Anita,
00:26:31.700 you didn't follow mask protocol.
00:26:33.640 Well,
00:26:34.160 I'm in a,
00:26:34.920 I'm,
00:26:35.940 I was in a room
00:26:36.900 with plexiglass
00:26:38.300 in between me,
00:26:39.080 a wall of plexiglass
00:26:40.260 between me
00:26:40.800 and the other guy.
00:26:41.940 It's like,
00:26:42.700 and I'm drinking water.
00:26:43.980 I'm not,
00:26:44.380 this is three years later,
00:26:46.100 right?
00:26:46.420 Come and show me
00:26:47.660 some scientific evidence
00:26:49.500 of transmission.
00:26:50.800 Come to the table
00:26:51.780 with your facts.
00:26:52.820 If you people
00:26:53.660 at Global News
00:26:54.480 hammered us with facts
00:26:55.760 for three years
00:26:56.600 telling us what to do,
00:26:57.920 you better back that up.
00:26:59.320 So come and talk to me.
00:27:00.660 So let's talk.
00:27:01.600 So I'm inviting you.
00:27:03.060 I'll find a studio.
00:27:04.140 I'm inviting you.
00:27:04.920 Come on.
00:27:05.240 I'm glad.
00:27:06.420 I hope someone
00:27:07.060 takes you up on that,
00:27:07.940 but I just want to talk
00:27:08.760 about the mask mandate
00:27:09.700 at Global for a moment
00:27:10.740 because this is actually
00:27:12.420 a particularly concerning thing.
00:27:14.880 And we've seen it
00:27:15.580 in courtrooms
00:27:16.260 where a court,
00:27:17.800 which may have to adjudicate
00:27:19.280 on a mask mandate
00:27:20.560 or a vaccine mandate
00:27:22.000 at some point
00:27:22.720 has as an institution
00:27:24.700 a mask mandate
00:27:25.660 or a vaccine mandate.
00:27:26.880 So,
00:27:27.380 you know,
00:27:27.700 how can you go
00:27:28.400 to an institution
00:27:29.260 and get a fair hearing
00:27:30.200 if you're saying,
00:27:30.760 I think mask mandates
00:27:31.540 are wrong
00:27:32.000 when the very courthouse
00:27:33.580 has decided
00:27:34.280 anyone who's here
00:27:35.220 or anyone who's working here
00:27:36.100 needs to wear a mask.
00:27:37.280 And I think the media
00:27:38.040 is very similar on this.
00:27:39.260 So how motivated
00:27:40.640 is Global going to be
00:27:42.400 to report on mask mandates
00:27:44.700 in a critical way
00:27:45.800 when they're forcing
00:27:47.200 their employees
00:27:47.820 to adhere to one
00:27:49.140 and when there's
00:27:50.380 a vaccine mandate
00:27:51.260 that applies across the board
00:27:52.820 to federally regulated industries?
00:27:54.620 And this is the stuff
00:27:55.900 that you don't necessarily see
00:27:57.260 as a member of an audience
00:27:58.260 because, you know,
00:27:58.700 once you're on camera,
00:28:00.180 COVID doesn't actually get you.
00:28:01.420 So you can take your mask off
00:28:02.560 when the camera's on
00:28:03.420 and you're safe.
00:28:05.620 But it's like sitting down
00:28:06.680 at a restaurant.
00:28:07.500 But people need to realize,
00:28:08.660 yeah,
00:28:08.800 these outlets
00:28:09.780 are not just observant,
00:28:12.400 observers of this.
00:28:13.560 They are actors in this.
00:28:15.660 Yes.
00:28:16.160 I mean,
00:28:16.360 they had to push
00:28:16.980 those rules too.
00:28:18.040 They had to nag us
00:28:18.820 about vaccines
00:28:19.620 and they had to nag us
00:28:20.960 about wearing the mask
00:28:21.940 and stuff all the time.
00:28:23.200 So where,
00:28:24.120 how do they get away
00:28:24.880 with this stuff
00:28:25.460 where they don't,
00:28:26.160 they are not responsible
00:28:27.280 for saying,
00:28:27.900 okay,
00:28:28.380 here's your study
00:28:29.300 and this is how rates
00:28:31.100 of transmission
00:28:31.740 are occurring
00:28:32.360 in the workplace.
00:28:33.760 So this is why
00:28:34.480 you need to wear it.
00:28:35.960 Come and show me that.
00:28:38.380 If these people
00:28:39.480 do not come to the table
00:28:40.720 with that evidence
00:28:41.880 and you just hear crickets,
00:28:44.140 then that says a lot.
00:28:45.460 You should be able
00:28:46.220 to back up
00:28:46.960 everything you forced us to do.
00:28:49.100 And in this province,
00:28:50.180 in British Columbia,
00:28:50.920 you know,
00:28:51.120 our healthcare workers
00:28:51.880 are still not back to work
00:28:53.200 unless they're jabbed.
00:28:54.440 So by now,
00:28:55.940 is there somebody
00:28:56.640 that doesn't know
00:28:57.500 that this didn't work
00:28:58.660 and that this is
00:28:59.620 a very dangerous product?
00:29:01.260 So what is our government
00:29:02.660 doing here?
00:29:04.300 You know,
00:29:04.600 we're sending people
00:29:05.360 across the border
00:29:06.120 for their healthcare
00:29:06.940 because we've decided
00:29:08.040 to not hire
00:29:08.940 these people back.
00:29:10.020 But anyway,
00:29:10.520 any of what I've spoken about,
00:29:13.740 if somebody at Global
00:29:14.940 would like to contest it,
00:29:17.240 then come and contest it.
00:29:19.660 And maybe the people
00:29:20.700 who need to watch
00:29:22.220 these things
00:29:22.720 who aren't watching
00:29:23.520 might tune in
00:29:24.540 to something like that.
00:29:26.260 Did you get,
00:29:27.020 after your termination
00:29:28.660 and since the quiet support
00:29:30.840 from your colleagues,
00:29:31.940 the, you know,
00:29:32.580 I'm on your side,
00:29:33.500 but I'm not going to say
00:29:34.240 anything about it?
00:29:35.040 Or did they kind of
00:29:36.200 just disown you
00:29:36.920 once you were out that door?
00:29:38.500 Most people disowned me.
00:29:39.960 A couple of people
00:29:40.820 said goodbye
00:29:42.320 on Facebook.
00:29:45.620 I could tell you stories
00:29:46.820 about those two people too.
00:29:48.160 Most people just
00:29:49.100 pretended I never existed,
00:29:51.800 although
00:29:52.060 I've not heard from them.
00:29:53.560 So one of my friends
00:29:55.280 who works at the CBC
00:29:56.300 is like,
00:29:56.760 Anita,
00:29:57.100 they're okay with that.
00:29:58.260 They're okay
00:29:58.960 with throwing you
00:29:59.900 out on your ass
00:30:00.680 with no severance,
00:30:01.900 no EI.
00:30:03.140 I am a mother.
00:30:04.320 I have to pay my own bills
00:30:05.520 and stuff like that.
00:30:06.720 They're okay with that.
00:30:08.020 They're just okay with that
00:30:08.980 because it wasn't them.
00:30:10.300 Thank God it was Anita.
00:30:11.540 It's not you.
00:30:12.620 Like,
00:30:13.000 it's kind of true, right?
00:30:14.480 So all those faces
00:30:15.480 that you see on TV,
00:30:16.640 I'm not heard
00:30:17.180 from any of these people.
00:30:19.020 You know,
00:30:19.480 like,
00:30:19.740 you don't even say,
00:30:21.080 how are you?
00:30:21.620 I'm sorry that that happened.
00:30:23.300 Really,
00:30:23.680 let me do something
00:30:24.480 to make it better.
00:30:25.540 They're all quiet as a mouse.
00:30:28.220 And it's,
00:30:29.140 it's,
00:30:29.740 it's very disgusting
00:30:31.480 because one of the guys
00:30:32.460 that threw me out
00:30:33.160 of the building,
00:30:34.640 he drove over
00:30:35.780 to throw me out
00:30:36.840 of the building
00:30:37.280 and I remember
00:30:37.800 he was just like,
00:30:38.760 get out,
00:30:39.660 get out,
00:30:40.420 you know,
00:30:40.720 like,
00:30:41.780 to me,
00:30:42.880 right?
00:30:43.800 Totally bullied me
00:30:45.020 and
00:30:45.880 the reason I don't like this
00:30:48.220 is because,
00:30:48.820 well,
00:30:48.940 many reasons,
00:30:49.460 but I had told him
00:30:50.820 months ago,
00:30:51.620 I showed him some studies
00:30:52.780 from the British Medical Journal
00:30:54.220 saying that this,
00:30:55.540 this is like a drug,
00:30:56.840 like,
00:30:57.100 this is really not going
00:30:58.140 to be safe for people.
00:30:59.160 It's going to wreck
00:30:59.640 your immune system.
00:31:01.020 So what is it about
00:31:02.340 these people
00:31:02.900 that they don't sit there
00:31:03.900 and go,
00:31:04.480 oh my God,
00:31:05.400 yeah,
00:31:06.160 we're hurting people.
00:31:07.880 They're like,
00:31:08.560 shut up and get out.
00:31:09.800 And that's what he did.
00:31:10.840 And he was,
00:31:12.100 he told me this story.
00:31:13.200 I went to the movies
00:31:14.280 with my wife
00:31:15.000 and we had to show
00:31:15.800 the young man there
00:31:16.740 our vaccine passport
00:31:17.960 and this is what we have to do
00:31:19.100 to keep everybody safe.
00:31:20.280 And I said,
00:31:21.200 no,
00:31:21.480 you don't.
00:31:22.620 You don't want to live
00:31:23.480 in a society
00:31:24.120 where you are doing that.
00:31:25.420 You,
00:31:25.600 that is not the way
00:31:26.860 we want society to be.
00:31:28.460 And there's no scientific backing
00:31:30.360 for why you are doing that either.
00:31:32.440 You know,
00:31:33.020 just,
00:31:33.700 just,
00:31:34.060 but he,
00:31:34.880 he didn't like that.
00:31:35.720 And so I think he was happy
00:31:36.700 to come throw me out.
00:31:38.760 Well,
00:31:39.340 I mean,
00:31:39.820 to be,
00:31:40.560 to be challenged
00:31:41.580 is difficult for people,
00:31:43.540 especially when,
00:31:44.640 to go back to
00:31:45.480 how we started off with this,
00:31:46.980 when accepting
00:31:48.460 what is being put
00:31:50.260 before them
00:31:51.660 doesn't just mean
00:31:52.660 accepting that,
00:31:53.600 but it also means
00:31:54.420 unraveling
00:31:55.420 a lot of your previous
00:31:56.940 conceptions about things.
00:31:58.400 And again,
00:31:59.020 I mean,
00:31:59.200 I don't want to go down
00:31:59.940 some conspiratorial rabbit hole,
00:32:01.760 but it's like,
00:32:02.440 you know,
00:32:02.660 if you're told that
00:32:03.600 X is a fact
00:32:04.980 that has been held from you,
00:32:06.900 you don't just have to
00:32:08.380 believe in that fact
00:32:09.940 when you get it.
00:32:10.560 You also have to
00:32:11.440 then start questioning
00:32:12.440 why was it held back?
00:32:14.080 Who didn't want to
00:32:14.760 talk about that?
00:32:15.460 Who was,
00:32:16.040 who benefited from it?
00:32:17.340 And it's very difficult
00:32:18.460 for people
00:32:19.000 to completely disentangle
00:32:20.460 what may be years
00:32:21.520 of investment
00:32:22.200 in a particular belief system.
00:32:24.280 And I think that's why
00:32:25.300 to go back again
00:32:26.340 to how we started off
00:32:27.480 with the last
00:32:28.620 three plus years,
00:32:30.260 everyone is path committed now.
00:32:32.380 So the idea of saying
00:32:34.200 I was wrong
00:32:35.160 means you have to say
00:32:36.940 you're wrong
00:32:37.380 about a lot of things
00:32:38.620 along the way.
00:32:40.960 And it's too hard.
00:32:42.580 I don't think it,
00:32:43.340 and the consequences
00:32:44.460 are too great
00:32:45.260 for them to sit there
00:32:46.180 and go,
00:32:46.580 we really screwed up
00:32:47.560 about this medication
00:32:48.780 and the children
00:32:49.760 and the masking
00:32:51.220 and the distancing
00:32:52.160 and the shutting down
00:32:53.140 of businesses
00:32:53.720 and the,
00:32:55.200 how kids have
00:32:56.400 developmental problems
00:32:57.460 because they were watching
00:32:58.160 like little toddlers.
00:32:59.260 Oh, sorry.
00:33:00.560 What are they going
00:33:01.080 to say now?
00:33:01.760 Sorry, we did that.
00:33:02.840 We were worried
00:33:03.360 about your health.
00:33:06.280 It's too much for them.
00:33:08.060 Well, I would encourage
00:33:09.520 people to go
00:33:10.720 and check out
00:33:11.620 Anita Krishna's testimony
00:33:12.920 before the National
00:33:14.080 Citizens Inquiry.
00:33:15.020 You can also catch
00:33:15.900 her show on YouTube
00:33:17.140 while it lasts
00:33:17.880 and Rumble
00:33:18.480 when it eventually
00:33:19.140 gets vaporized
00:33:20.460 for being a little
00:33:21.140 too honest by YouTube.
00:33:22.680 I'm even worried
00:33:23.120 about this one now.
00:33:24.120 You've said all the words
00:33:25.220 that trigger the algorithm.
00:33:26.760 So we'll see.
00:33:27.840 I know.
00:33:28.520 I'm trying to have
00:33:29.480 like a life on YouTube
00:33:30.540 but it's very hard.
00:33:31.400 So I just go to Rumble
00:33:32.380 and we'll see what happens
00:33:33.360 with Rumble.
00:33:33.820 But you can find me
00:33:34.420 on Rumble too.
00:33:35.480 All right.
00:33:36.120 Well, Anita Krishna,
00:33:37.200 thank you for taking
00:33:38.500 the stand that you did
00:33:39.320 and for coming on
00:33:40.280 with us today.
00:33:40.820 It's great to talk to you.
00:33:41.620 Thank you for having me.
00:33:43.360 Thank you so much, Andrew.
00:33:44.540 Have a lovely day.
00:33:45.820 That does it for us
00:33:47.200 for today.
00:33:48.080 Hope you have a great weekend.
00:33:49.880 Do keep up with
00:33:50.540 True North Alberta

00:33:59.040 and a great cast
00:33:59.900 of characters

00:34:01.720 Rachel Emanuel

00:34:05.120 and bring you the results
00:34:06.160 in real time
00:34:07.080 as we find out

00:34:08.940 in the great
00:34:09.460 Smith vs. Notley
00:34:11.020 standoff.
00:34:11.860 So that's something
00:34:12.880 we have to look forward
00:34:13.580 to Monday
00:34:14.160 and then the Andrew Lawton
00:34:15.160 show to break down
00:34:15.820 the results.
00:34:16.980 Hopefully we'll be able
00:34:17.840 to do a show Tuesday.
00:34:18.780 I'm still trying to
00:34:19.580 sort out some logistics
00:34:20.980 and travel arrangements
00:34:22.200 there.
00:34:22.560 But all that aside,
00:34:23.460 have a great weekend,
00:34:24.320 everyone.
00:34:24.940 Thank you.
00:34:25.460 God bless and good day
