Juno News - The True North Report： Why do so many journalists HATE everyday Canadians？

00:00:00.600 Hey guys, Candice Malcolm here. We are live with True North. I wanted to come live today

00:00:07.700 because I wanted to talk to you about, I want to kind of look into this yellow vest movement.

00:00:13.960 I just, it's one of those things I don't feel like the mainstream media is giving this protest

00:00:18.520 group a fair shake. They are painting this organization as being fringe, extremist, far

00:00:24.980 right, all of the sort of usual things that the media throw at kind of just general conservatives

00:00:33.300 if you don't fall in line with this sort of mainstream liberal dogma. So, you know, I don't

00:00:38.980 really know that much about the yellow vest protest movement. I will fully admit that. I don't know

00:00:44.580 exactly who they are. I don't know any of them personally. I haven't met any of them. I am in

00:00:50.340 the midst of trying to set up some interviews and trying to get a better understanding of

00:00:55.980 who these folks are, what it is that they are demanding, why they're protesting. But today's

00:01:02.520 video and why I want to come live is I just want to sort of do a preliminary analysis of

00:01:08.620 this organization, what it is they want, and then kind of compare that to the mainstream

00:01:14.680 media. So I'm sure everyone watching this is familiar with both the yellow vest protestors,

00:01:21.940 as well as the media coverage. I'll just do a very, very brief overview. So there was a protest

00:01:28.360 movement started in France. It sparked over anger and outrage about a carbon tax that was set to

00:01:35.400 drastically increase the price of fuel. So taxi drivers in France are required to have a yellow

00:01:41.800 vest in their car for emergency purposes and to identify themselves. So the protest kind of

00:01:47.360 naturally sprung about for people who work for a living as drivers. And so they took their yellow 0.81

00:01:54.100 vests. They began a movement. It grew drastically. It was mainly peaceful, although there was certainly

00:02:01.220 some violence and there were some clashes with the French authorities. It became just a mass

00:02:05.320 mass protest against French president Emmanuel Macron. And so basically, it wasn't just about

00:02:13.960 the carbon taxes. It was kind of a movement of working people against the sort of elite guard.

00:02:20.820 And you could interpret that in a lot of different ways. You know, what the carbon tax was not necessarily

00:02:25.700 just coming from French politicians. It was coming from something higher than that, that the Paris

00:02:31.020 Accord, the UN Paris Accord. So a lot of the anger and the frustration that I observed and the interviews

00:02:36.680 that I saw, interviews that I watched, were people kind of fed up with what many people in North America

00:02:43.020 call globalism or the globalist agenda of these sort of UN elites dictating policy, whether it be on

00:02:50.720 climate policy or migration or any of the number of things that are plaguing Europe and France.

00:02:57.020 Obviously, every time I go to Paris, I go once a year. Every time I go, I hear more and more concerns

00:03:02.620 from people about terrorism. Terrorism is such a real threat in that city. You can see the ramifications

00:03:09.180 of ISIS and jihadist terrorism and the migrants that flooded into Europe. Everywhere you go, there's 0.99

00:03:16.160 massive security. There's sort of like airport-style security at all the major tourist attractions in

00:03:21.560 Paris. My friends in Paris kind of, you know, everyone's just distraught about it. They feel

00:03:27.560 unsafe. They feel on edge. You know, people in Paris love sitting out in cafes and sitting at

00:03:33.380 restaurants. It's part of the culture. And there's sort of fear among that. You can see they've created

00:03:38.940 like guardrails and barriers so that cars can't get very close to restaurants anymore. And they're

00:03:43.680 trying to push cars out of the city, which is obviously frustrating for people who drive for a living.

00:03:48.640 So anyway, there's all these sort of cultural, social issues in France. That's where the original 0.99

00:03:54.340 movement came from. It got picked up in Canada. I would say probably mainly in Alberta, where there's

00:03:59.580 also just this sort of overwhelming frustration among people when it comes to the same kind of issues,

00:04:06.660 elite policies, so-called globalists, or rule by elite that Justin Trudeau, Prime Minister Justin

00:04:12.680 Trudeau, is so attracted to. So we know Justin Trudeau. He loves the UN. He's desperate to get

00:04:18.280 Canada a seat as a rotating member on the Security Council. He, you know, goes out of his way. For

00:04:27.000 instance, he wore that t-shirt and spoke at that conference, calling himself a global citizen.

00:04:32.400 And he kind of always takes the UN-centered approach to public policy, be it climate. You know,

00:04:39.040 he was eagerly signing on to the Paris Accord and condemned the United States when they left the

00:04:44.020 Paris Accord, even though the U.S.'s carbon emissions have gone down. And then when it came

00:04:48.440 to the global UN compact, he was, him and his government officials were sort of boasting about

00:04:53.920 how they were playing a main role in it. So I see these things as kind of connected. If you live in

00:04:58.420 Alberta, you're incredibly frustrated over the lack of a pipeline, lack of ability to get resources to

00:05:04.300 market, and then this sort of ensuing recession that's come from that. So it's kind of natural to me

00:05:09.940 as an observer that these things are all kind of tied together. The prime minister is focused entirely

00:05:15.740 on helping refugees and migrants. That's where his focus is. That's what they spend a lot of time

00:05:21.140 talking about. That's where a lot of the resources are going. And in the meantime, they're just kind

00:05:25.640 of neglecting Alberta and the economy, the sort of backbone and engine of the country. And so those

00:05:33.380 are sort of tied together. So there's been a number of protests, both the Yellow Vest protests and then

00:05:38.600 just regular anti-carbon tax, anti-Trudeau protests that we've seen in Alberta for months. For months,

00:05:46.520 there was the massive truck envoy that was up in Nisku near Edmonton, where there were thousands of

00:05:53.000 trucks that were out of work. And so they created a convoy. There was huge protests in Calgary when

00:06:01.600 Justin Trudeau was there last, I believe it was November or December. He was there. Bill Morneau,

00:06:07.720 the finance ministers there, and they, you know, huge protests of people. They were really Yellow Vests 1.00

00:06:13.060 at that point. But now we're seeing these kind of weekly protests. And to me, it's, you know, the peaceful

00:06:18.900 protesters, it's a legitimate democratic movement. And so because I think that it is legitimate in the same

00:06:26.980 way as, you know, when labor unions march, or when, you know, the March for Life happens in Ottawa,

00:06:36.440 the pro-life activists, anti-abortion activists, you know, those are all legitimate democratic movements.

00:06:42.120 So is the Women's March. So is any number of March. And I think the media needs to do a better job

00:06:47.820 of objectively covering these things, you know, instead of just writing off on group and putting

00:06:55.140 a label on them and saying, they're not legitimate because X, why don't you try to listen to their

00:07:00.420 concerns? And I think, you know, when it's a popular progressive or left-wing cause like the Women's

00:07:06.020 March, no one tries to put any labels on them. Nobody points out some extremism or fringe elements

00:07:13.600 that happen in those kinds of rallies. Not that I've seen, not kind of prominently displayed. And yet

00:07:20.000 when there's a conservative group or a group on the right, that's sort of immediately the focus.

00:07:24.260 So I just want to point out a couple of things. I mean, you know, if you're just sort of interested

00:07:29.760 in learning about the yellow vests, do a quick Google search on the yellow vest movement. And what

00:07:36.500 you see is, you know, mostly really negative coverage. So here, the first thing that comes up is

00:07:43.080 meet Canada's pro-oil, anti-immigrant yellow vest movement. CTV says, headline says, yellow vest in

00:07:50.060 Canada bears no resemblance to protesters in France. Another Canada land piece says, the

00:07:56.760 far-right grassroots movement taking over Canada. The National Post, which is supposed to be sort

00:08:02.100 of a center-right publication. Credibility of Canada's fledging yellow vest movement threatened 0.99

00:08:07.340 by extremists and fringe groups. And then a whole bunch of CBC stuff about how there's one about how

00:08:15.420 the yellow vest movements, the yellow vest rallies send the wrong message that something about the

00:08:22.400 tone. And then stories, remember, there was a story about how the CBC called some crackpots. And

00:08:34.240 yeah, there was that story about how there was a death threat against Trudeau on the Facebook page

00:08:42.280 of one of these groups. Obviously, that's not good. I'm talking about peaceful protesters. And once you

00:08:48.720 get into the sort of death threats and violence, that's no longer, I think, that's clearly no longer

00:08:55.340 legitimate democratic form that goes into the realm of criminal activity and not just free speech.

00:09:04.220 But, you know, just, you know, just the overview here showing how negative the coverage is. And then

00:09:10.540 there's, of course, I want to show this video. This is from the CBC. And, uh, whoops, I just lost it here.

00:09:18.320 The CBC put up this video. Uh, I guess it was CBC comedy. And, uh, let me just see if I can find it here.

00:09:28.400 The, uh, here it is here. You've probably seen this. So this is, this is how the yellow vest movement is

00:09:38.100 portrayed. This is from their comedy show. The CBC is a state broadcaster in Canada, obviously, and they

00:09:43.500 have a comedy show. So this is how they're portrayed.

00:09:49.900 Well, he just bought a pipeline and he's now passing over a billion dollars in support for the oil sector.

00:09:55.280 How is that anti-oil?

00:09:56.620 That's just what the communist broadcasting corporation would say.

00:10:01.180 Yeah.

00:10:01.920 I like how, just to interject here, the host, so this is like a fake interview. And the host is like

00:10:08.320 defending Justin Trudeau and saying that he is actually pro-oil because he, A, bought a pipeline

00:10:15.560 which he hasn't done anything with and hasn't even begun constructing on or, you know, the steps to

00:10:22.620 approval. The only reason he bought it is because the company that used to own it wanted out. And

00:10:28.160 so, I mean, that using that as a point is kind of silly. And then the other one was that he gave a

00:10:34.360 billion dollars in corporate welfare to oil, to the oil, to the pipeline. It's like, that's not what

00:10:41.400 people in Alberta want. People in Alberta want to get back to work. So it's just kind of funny that

00:10:46.160 this, even in their own comedy sketch, the government broadcaster can't help but try to defend

00:10:51.620 Justin Trudeau. Okay.

00:10:53.360 I don't need you. I get my news from Facebook. Yeah, Facebook, which reminds me, does anyone

00:10:58.860 have a tangent? Because my phone is dead.

00:11:01.360 Okay, your group is also anti-immigration?

00:11:05.280 It's great. The UN Global Compact of Migration is going to end this country.

00:11:11.020 We can't let our country be changed by outside cultures. 0.99

00:11:14.360 Where did the yellow vest movement start?

00:11:17.000 France.

00:11:17.480 The signs at the rallies call for immigrants to stay.

00:11:20.580 So, I mean, just right there, like, again, they can't help but portray Canadians, and especially

00:11:25.780 people in this movement as being stupid, like yokels, stupid. The guy needs a phone charger

00:11:31.040 because he needs to charge his phone. He's so stupid. He can't even keep his phone charged.

00:11:35.300 And then they're trying to say that they're against the Global Compact, but they readily admit

00:11:40.520 that they kind of culturally appropriated this movement from France. You know, this is just

00:11:47.720 sort of like exactly how mainstream media elites in Toronto, Montreal, and Ottawa think of Canadians

00:11:53.740 in Western Canada. Think of working class Canadians. Think of Canadians and Albertans, people in

00:11:59.700 Alberta. I mean, you can just see it. It's so blatant, and it's just so pathetic.

00:12:06.980 Out of Canada. Is your group racist? No.

00:12:10.680 Yes. I mean, no. I mean, it depends. Who's that?

00:12:16.600 So, you can see the clip. We post on True North Initiative, if you can kind of stomach the state

00:12:25.580 broadcasters. It's just, you know, they would never do a clip like that against, again, like the

00:12:32.600 Women's March movement or one of the left-wing movements that you see. They would never do 0.64

00:12:36.860 something like that about Antifa, which is actually a violent organization that in the U.S. has been

00:12:43.460 deemed that their activities have been classified as domestic terrorism. And so, you know, when it's the

00:12:56.320 right-wing, when it's conservatives, when it's Albertans, the CBC feels like they have free range

00:13:02.880 to just completely mock these people, portray them as just being the stupidest people under the planet,

00:13:08.460 and obviously racist, because that's what it all boils down to. You can't protest the prime minister.

00:13:14.180 You can't have an opinion on immigration. You can't have an opinion on pipelines without being,

00:13:19.680 you know, the victim of name-calling. So, if you are opposed to a U.N. global compact

00:13:27.600 on migration, it's because you are clearly a racist. And so, you know, you don't have to

00:13:34.620 go very far to see what it is the mainstream media really thinks about Canadians. And, of course,

00:13:41.240 it's not just the CBC. I'll just show you just a little exchange I had with the journalist on

00:13:46.740 Twitter here. I have to go through an outside source, because this guy has now blocked me on

00:13:53.560 Twitter. But there was a radio host in Kamloops, British Columbia. His name is Brett Meneer.

00:14:01.440 And so, back in early January, this is January 10th, the prime minister, Trudeau, was doing those

00:14:07.220 town halls across Canada, and he did a stop in Kamloops. I guess there were some protesters,

00:14:13.040 there were some Yellow Vest protesters outside of that event. And this radio host, who's supposed

00:14:21.660 to be, you know, somewhat objective and honest as a journalist, he really hated these protesters.

00:14:29.420 So, this is a tweet that he wrote. And I'm kind of shocked that this tweet is still up there. It's

00:14:35.660 still available on Twitter. He says, having the prime minister come to town and seeing just what

00:14:41.260 gross, terrible human beings are out among us with their delusional conspiracy theories,

00:14:47.940 racism, disrespect, and total inability to engage in good faith conversation makes me want to get

00:14:56.180 off this planet. ASAP. Okay, this is like a little dramatic. But like, you know, the idea that people

00:15:04.200 who would protest a prime minister are gross, terrible human beings, and that somehow they're,

00:15:10.500 that they're, they're, like, being led by conspiracy theories, and racism and disrespect.

00:15:18.440 And that makes this guy want to leave the planet. Okay, buddy. So, I mean, that's a little bit over the

00:15:24.740 top, I think, to most people. And it's pretty harsh. I mean, if I was walking down the street,

00:15:30.800 say I was going to an event with a politician that I respected, or a speaker that I liked,

00:15:35.300 like, say I was going to a Jordan Peterson event, I really like Jordan Peterson, I go to his events

00:15:41.640 when I can. Say I was going to his event, and there were people outside protesting Peterson,

00:15:46.280 and they hated Peterson. And they had their signs, and they were chanting things, and they were saying

00:15:51.980 things that I totally disagreed with. But they were peaceful, they were peaceful. And they weren't

00:15:57.300 trying to, you know, block the entryway, or they weren't provoking violence, they were just

00:16:02.640 peacefully protesting. You know, I'd be like, good, you know, good on you, you have the right to

00:16:08.420 peacefully protesting, and I totally disagree with you. And I probably wouldn't want to, you know,

00:16:13.240 sit down, have a conversation with you, just because you, you know, you don't seem like the

00:16:16.860 kind of person I would want to engage with. You know, I wouldn't immediately go to, you are a gross,

00:16:22.500 disgusting, human being, a terrible human being, and that you are delusional and racist, and you 0.96

00:16:31.620 make me want to leave the planet. Like, this is such a visceral reaction. It's so unhelpful. You

00:16:37.060 know, the idea is that we can disagree, and still live side by side and not, you know, doesn't have to

00:16:44.120 come to such drastic outcomes that we can just disagree. And yet this guy's seeing these yellow 0.93

00:16:52.160 vest protesters, like, triggered him so badly that he took to Twitter to call them gross, terrible

00:16:58.320 human beings. Those are, those are Canadians. Those are working Canadians. Again, you might not agree 0.69

00:17:03.260 with them. You might not think that they're the best people, you might not want to invite them over

00:17:07.240 to your house. That's fine. But you can't even be in the same planet as them, or in the same city as

00:17:13.180 them, the same country as them. I just, it really, it really bothers me when you get this kind of smug

00:17:18.600 attitude from journalists and from leftists. I mean, this guy's a journalist, but he's clearly

00:17:23.520 a leftist. Spend two minutes on his Twitter page, and you'll just see endless attacks against

00:17:29.320 conservatives and endless attacks against Andrew Scheer, conservative leader. I mean, he clearly

00:17:34.260 just doesn't like conservatives. But to call people gross and terrible, and then just immediately

00:17:40.180 jump to racist, just so juvenile and so pathetic, frankly. So pathetic. And again, I think this

00:17:48.540 is like a little snapshot. Same with that CBC video, this guy's Twitter. It's like a little

00:17:52.600 snapshot into how so many mainstream media journalists in Canada view Canadians when they

00:17:58.100 see the Yellow Vest protests. That's why you got all of those headlines that were just overwhelmingly

00:18:02.060 negative. Again, let me just say, there are probably some pretty, some people in the Yellow 1.00

00:18:10.260 Vest movement that I wouldn't, that I wouldn't agree with, and that I probably wouldn't want to

00:18:13.980 spend a lot of time with. People who just aren't my kind of person, you know, I wouldn't feel

00:18:18.400 comfortable around. I wouldn't want to, again, have them over to my house. You know, does that mean

00:18:24.080 that they're not legitimate, that they're not a legitimate democratic movement? No. We have

00:18:29.240 free speech and free assembly in this country, and we should be open to hearing ideas that we don't like.

00:18:34.760 Okay. So first of all, yeah, yeah, there's probably some pretty bad, sketchy people that are on the

00:18:41.220 fringe of the Yellow Vest movement. Does that mean that they're all bad and that we should write them 0.97

00:18:44.260 all off? No. And, and look at any other movement, any other peaceful democratic movement, be it,

00:18:50.080 you know, examples I keep going to, the Women's March or the March for Life or, you know, any number

00:18:57.120 of these protests and people who, the Occupy Wall Street people, the Tea Party back in, back in 2010

00:19:02.920 in, in Washington in the U.S. You know, these people have political, you know, they, they have

00:19:09.820 legitimate points and, and they're a political movement. And we're allowed to do that. We live

00:19:15.200 in a free society. And so to just completely write off an entire movement of people as being gross,

00:19:20.560 terrible, and then referring to them as far right and fringe like the mainstream media does,

00:19:25.620 I just think it's so unfortunate. And again, you could say that about any group. You could find

00:19:30.600 crazy extremists, even in groups like the Women's March, and there are, and they have been exposed.

00:19:35.960 There's vile anti-Semites and people who hate Jews in the, in the Women's March. They explicitly did 1.00

00:19:42.480 not allow pro-life activists to be part of the Women's March. So, you know, they, they have their 0.64

00:19:49.220 own kind of fringe issues as well. Okay. So just one more thing I wanted to point out. And I think

00:19:55.940 that finally, someone's done some pretty good journalism on this issue. So this is from the rebel

00:20:03.380 media. They had one of their reporters, they have a new reporter out in Calgary, and he did something

00:20:08.560 that I haven't seen any other mainstream media journalists do. He went to a yellow vest movement, 0.96

00:20:15.780 rally in Calgary, and he actually talked to the people. So you can get their perspective in their

00:20:22.320 own words, what they believe in and why they're protesting. And I think that this is really important.

00:20:27.240 This should have been done a while ago by the mainstream media, if they were actually really

00:20:31.780 trying to do their job, which was, you know, try to understand what's happening in Canada,

00:20:37.480 what's going on in the country and get, and get to know what, you know, what these various political

00:20:41.300 movements are. So here, let's just listen to a few yellow vest protesters in their own words.

00:20:46.960 Here we go.

00:20:49.460 Identifying the problems that are going on in Canada, just not enough people know the truth of what's

00:20:54.680 going on. And people, we just want to inform people. And that's what this is really all about.

00:20:59.320 I see that the country is totally going downhill. I was born in Chile, and I saw how socialism

00:21:08.660 goes to an economy. My family lost everything. They were expropriated. And nobody has any incentive

00:21:16.680 to work, finally, because the government controls everything. And what's the point? So I don't want

00:21:23.360 the same thing. It's an incredibly articulate take from just the person on the street. You know,

00:21:28.520 again, they portray these people as just being bumbling idiots who are so incoherent and probably 0.69

00:21:34.200 racist. You listen to someone like this, and it's like, wow, she has a very thoughtful perspective,

00:21:39.700 very articulate, and very specific. She fled socialism. And she's worried that socialist policies are

00:21:45.740 creeping up in Canada. Again, the fact that you can just write someone like this off as being

00:21:50.480 far-right racist is so insincere, and so superficial. It's just, it's just mind-boggling.

00:21:56.520 We're happy to get out. That's why I'm here.

00:21:58.340 That's what we're for, too. We just want the immigrants that come here, that need to come here, 1.00

00:22:02.920 we want to welcome them. And we want them to become the way my grandparents became. They came from the

00:22:07.940 Ukraine in 1909, and home-centered in northern Alberta, and worked, and they become Canadians.

00:22:12.800 Everything seems to be very, very positive here. And I come out to protest because I

00:22:19.160 meet friends, and we're all for a good cause. And we're going to fight for Canada.

00:22:26.600 Hey, can you tell me what brings you out here?

00:22:29.540 I have kids, and I really care about my country.

00:22:32.400 My country's been let down. It's really important. It's important, man.

00:22:38.840 There's problems. We all know there's problems. But we can't be scared to talk about them. That's

00:22:43.660 all this is. We want the people to have a voice in identifying and addressing the problems

00:22:53.160 that are facing the whole country, and not to be demonized and criminalized for talking.

00:23:02.400 Just talking. That's all Canadians want to do is talk, but that's a problem. Let's continue to be 1.00

00:23:08.060 multiple. Okay, so so far, this is what I'm getting from these people. They want immigrants to 0.97

00:23:13.640 integrate into the Canadian society, and they don't care about where the people are coming from.

00:23:18.500 They just want them to join the Canadian family. That's a pretty mainstream position held, I think,

00:23:22.060 by a lot of Canadians. They want to be able to voice their criticisms and have free speech.

00:23:27.000 That's pretty basic and should be a universal value held among all Canadians.

00:23:31.580 And then the one guy said, you know, he's got kids, and he's worried about the future of his

00:23:35.660 country. Okay, that's probably a very universal feeling for parents. And again, you know, I don't

00:23:45.180 know, like, how this was edited. I imagine that, you know, these people were the ones that were the

00:23:50.840 most concise and raised the clearest points. That's why they were included in this video. But,

00:23:55.140 you know, everything I've heard so far is pretty mainstream and pretty admirable, in my opinion.

00:24:02.140 So again, you know, that connection between these individuals that we're hearing, God bless them.

00:24:08.740 And then that horrible portrayal from the mainstream media, there's just such a disconnect. It's so,

00:24:14.300 it's so interesting.

00:24:15.960 Cultural in Canada, but let's become Canadians. That's all we want from them. And it doesn't matter 0.71

00:24:20.640 what color, what, none of that matters with us. None of it. We just want to make the world better

00:24:26.920 in Canada. Like, Canada's got to be number one. Canada number one. So, I see you here with a smirk

00:24:32.340 on your face in that.

00:24:33.180 How was any of that racist? That was the opposite of racist. He literally said he doesn't care about

00:24:37.460 the color of the person's skin or where they're from. He just wants them to come and become

00:24:42.500 Canadian. That's probably what liberals believe, too. It's just, okay. 0.61

00:24:47.300 Pat, can I ask you, what brings you up to this protest today?

00:24:50.740 Well, Trudeau has been in office for too long. He is bringing in, like, I'm fine with, like,

00:24:59.100 you know, reasonable amount of immigration, bring in skilled labor and such, people fleeing

00:25:06.700 tyranny, stuff like that. But when you're bringing in, what, like, 400,000, 500,000 people every

00:25:13.580 year, when the population of Canada is only about 35 million, soon you get to the point,

00:25:19.640 is it going to be like in Sweden, where there's no go zones? I don't want that to happen.

00:25:25.180 I don't think anyone wants that to happen. So, even the guy wearing the Make Canada Great

00:25:29.060 Again hat, the, you know, the hat that's so demonized, and obviously, you know, if you

00:25:32.900 wear that kind of hat, the CBC will immediately write you off. Even what he said, and, you know,

00:25:39.140 maybe he wasn't the most articulate, but, you know, what he said, I mean, he's a young

00:25:43.280 guy, so pretty articulate for a young guy. But, you know, the idea that if you're a skilled

00:25:47.900 worker, that's great. If you're really fleeing persecution, that's great. But maybe just the

00:25:52.580 overall levels are too high, given the population, which, again, I would argue is a pretty mainstream

00:25:58.440 position in Canada. So, I'll just leave at that. I think that, you know, from those yellow 1.00

00:26:05.140 vest protesters that we just saw, there's nothing that really even strikes me as being

00:26:10.760 controversial or extreme or far right. And I think it's unfortunate that the media doesn't

00:26:18.260 give these people a fair shake or a fair chance. You know, they have a legitimate point of view,

00:26:25.660 especially, you know, folks in Alberta who are really suffering through hard economic times,

00:26:31.120 and they feel neglected. And again, maybe, you know, some people in the mainstream media think

00:26:37.680 it's not legitimate to tie economic concerns with concerns about migration. But to me, they are

00:26:43.720 interlinked when you have a government that's so focused, so heavily focused on prioritizing

00:26:49.320 immigration, migration, refugees, enabling illegal immigration, facilitating it, spending all this

00:26:57.120 money housing, migrants and refugees, that's really the focus of this government. And then

00:27:03.020 juxtapose that with the neglect of Western Canada and the economic side, and imposing this carbon tax.

00:27:10.760 Again, that's exactly what the French protest movement was about. That's what sparked it in France

00:27:16.240 as well, this kind of idea that there are these globalist forces that come above the national forces.

00:27:22.680 So instead of the country caring about its citizens and putting its citizens first, we care about these

00:27:27.860 global institutions and these global goals, be it the UN Compact on Migration, or the Paris Accord on

00:27:33.980 climate change. You know, they both have a similar framework, and they're both similar model, you know,

00:27:40.060 a bunch of elites get together in a room, set goals that they are going to impose on everyday people

00:27:46.500 across the world. And those everyday people don't have a say, and they don't feel represented,

00:27:51.200 and they feel ignored and neglected. I think that that's really the core of what I'm seeing. Again,

00:27:56.440 I'm not part of the Yellow Vest movement anyway, I haven't been to any of the rallies, I would be

00:28:01.920 interested in talking to some of those folks, maybe setting up some interviews. So if you know anyone

00:28:07.780 who's involved, and who might want to talk to one of our reporters at True North, send me a message,

00:28:14.980 let me know. We have an email address, I think it's tips at truenorthinitiative.com. So you can send an

00:28:22.380 email there, tips at true north. And yeah, we'd be happy to, you know, try to understand even more

00:28:30.560 what it is that this movement is all about. Unlike the mainstream media, we'll be fair and balanced.

00:28:37.160 You know, we're not going to completely cover it from a positive perspective, if there's negative

00:28:43.620 things, or if there's things that aren't great, you know, we'll include that. But unlike the

00:28:48.200 mainstream media, we won't paint the entire group as just being a bunch of far right, racist extremists,

00:28:55.520 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I think that those terms, by the way, are just getting so old that

00:28:59.880 they don't mean anything anymore. Like, if you talk about immigration, you're racist, and you're a bigot.

00:29:04.500 And sooner or later, those words just lose their meaning. And that's where we are, especially with

00:29:11.520 mainstream media and federal government officials constantly throwing those words around. So

00:29:16.320 anyway, I'll leave it at that. Thank you so much for tuning in. Don't forget to check out True North,

00:29:22.560 the group that I started. We have a new website called tnc.news, tnc, the letters.news. And that's

00:29:30.720 where you can find all of our reporting. We do daily reports focused on issues related to immigration,

00:29:36.240 national security, and then broader issues as well. And we have a series of investigative reports

00:29:41.580 that we're doing on covering a lot of issues, migrant crisis, the illegal border crossers coming

00:29:49.600 into Canada, some of the issues with the Syrian refugee resettlement program, got a lot of content on

00:29:56.620 there. So you're gonna want to check that out. And thank you so much for tuning in. Bye.
