00:00:00.000 What happened when you tried to contact Thomas Keeper to get his side of the story?
00:00:04.700 Yeah, it's called responsible communication, and it's a really important aspect of journalism
00:00:08.740 to make sure that you have a story that is fair and has all sides of the story,
00:00:13.840 so that you're not going on some witch hunt against someone just to publish some salacious news.
00:00:22.200 It's important that we gave Thomas the opportunity to say,
00:00:24.960 no, no, he's insane. She's insane. He's lying. This fact is wrong or whatever. He, you know,
00:00:32.820 he could say, yeah, this is all true. This is how I behave. We don't know what he was going to say,
00:00:36.460 but we had to give him the opportunity, uh, to refute, to agree with, or even tweak some of the
00:00:43.680 information that we had. Maybe he could provide us with documentation showing that these people
00:00:47.700 were all serial harassers of him. We just don't know, right? So we provided all of the allegations
00:00:53.160 that we had of him. We sent him that by email, we texted him, we tried to call him, and eventually
00:01:00.520 I showed up to his campaign office at 709 Edmonton Trail, right on the front road of a very main
00:01:07.600 street in Calgary, and I waited in my car for Thomas to show up while he was campaigning.
00:01:13.780 And lo and behold, he did. It was the middle of the day, and I had an envelope of questions to
00:01:19.280 ask him i approached him and i said hey thomas we have some questions to ask you um and he ran away
00:01:25.860 he fled the scene he went and hid and in fact he hid behind his wife and he hid behind liberal
00:01:31.640 party staffers who shielded his wife when i also tried to ask his wife questions um because as a
00:01:37.560 victim and as a pretty focal like center point of the story she also has a right to respond to these
00:01:42.960 allegations um we we have we have uh footage of that because you were wise enough to take the
00:01:47.800 like that and so let's uh play this as a footage of kia bexy trying to get comment from the liberal
00:01:53.080 candidate thomas keeper mr keeper thomas hi thomas i just have some questions to ask you we just we
00:02:01.720 just have some questions to ask you hi mr keeper okay great thank you no no sorry sorry we just
00:02:11.240 have some questions to ask you so pretty clear you you didn't even come within a couple feet of him
00:02:16.840 Like as soon as he saw you coming, he bolted in the door and closed it before you could even get physically near him.
