00:00:00.000
And just like that, the fake political emergency is over.
00:00:03.200
Dustin Trudeau says the country is now safe, but will he ever recover?
00:00:06.560
I'm Candace Malcolm and this is The Candace Malcolm Show.
00:00:12.660
Hi everyone, thank you so much for tuning in.
00:00:14.820
So I guess we can all breathe a sigh of relief because on Wednesday afternoon,
00:00:19.160
Justin Trudeau came out and lo and behold, he said that there's no longer an emergency.
00:00:23.280
This political emergency is over.
00:00:25.120
So they have withdrawn and revoked the Emergency Act after voting on it just two days earlier,
00:00:31.980
not even two full days, about 36 or 40 hours after it was voted on and passed in the House
00:00:37.120
of Commons.
00:00:37.680
It is now revoked.
00:00:38.780
So Justin Trudeau came out Wednesday afternoon at 4.15 and said that after careful consideration,
00:00:43.840
we are able to confirm the situation is no longer an emergency.
00:00:47.220
Therefore, the federal government will be ending the use of the Emergency Act.
00:00:50.340
Here is what that looked like.
00:00:51.620
And today, after careful consideration, we're ready to confirm that the situation is no longer
00:00:59.180
an emergency.
00:01:00.660
Therefore, the federal government will be ending the use of the Emergencies Act.
00:01:06.560
Well, isn't that just incredible?
00:01:08.620
So you might be asking yourself what exactly changed between Monday evening when the House
00:01:14.340
of Commons voted, recall that the entire Liberal caucus, the entire NDP caucus voted in favor
00:01:19.900
of this, the Liberal government whipped their MPs.
00:01:22.740
It was a confidence vote, meaning if they didn't get the votes that they needed, we would get
00:01:25.820
triggered into an election.
00:01:27.500
So it was so important that they all voted in favor of this act, that there was some kind
00:01:31.740
of pressing emergency, some kind of threat to our sovereignty, to our supply chains, our
00:01:35.520
economy, the border integrity.
00:01:37.420
The entire country was at risk.
00:01:39.560
On Monday evening, we needed to pass this Emergencies Act.
00:01:42.200
Even though the protests had already been cleared, even though the police had already marched
00:01:46.540
through Ottawa and removed all the trucks, all the protesters, no borders were currently
00:01:50.620
blocked.
00:01:51.420
Nothing was going on on Monday night that warranted this.
00:01:54.780
Somehow, less than two days later, with no change, no new intel, no police actions, nothing
00:02:00.380
changed.
00:02:01.360
And the Emergency Act is lifted.
00:02:03.500
Of course, all of this just goes to suggest that there was no emergency in the first place.
00:02:07.220
This was all political.
00:02:08.180
It was entirely politically motivated.
00:02:10.220
Justin Trudeau found himself in a bad situation that he himself created.
00:02:13.980
He ignored a working class uprising.
00:02:16.740
By the time they showed up in Ottawa, he called them every name in the book, refused to engage,
00:02:20.760
refused to meet with them, made the situation worse, angered his own base for neglecting to
00:02:26.180
deal with the situation.
00:02:27.180
It made him look incredibly weak, incredibly standoffish.
00:02:30.040
No one even knows where he went.
00:02:31.020
He went and disappeared to an undisclosed location.
00:02:33.980
No one knew where he was.
00:02:35.380
He showed no leadership whatsoever.
00:02:36.960
Remember that poll that was done by David Coletto over at Abacus?
00:02:40.720
They found that of all the levels of government, both sides blamed Justin Trudeau the most.
00:02:45.280
When it came to the people who support the convoy, all the various people to blame, whether
00:02:50.280
it was the police, the local Ottawa City Council, the mayor, the Ontario government, or the feds,
00:02:57.300
most people blame the feds.
00:02:58.760
On the other side, people who oppose the convoy, same exact breakdown.
00:03:02.380
Most people blamed Trudeau.
00:03:04.000
So Trudeau was to blame on both sides.
00:03:06.360
He thought that using this emergency act to just finally clear out the protest would be
00:03:10.360
good enough.
00:03:11.140
Of course, by the time they voted on it, the protest was already cleared.
00:03:14.100
None of this made any sense.
00:03:15.880
Regardless, the emergency act is now gone.
00:03:17.720
So I guess the emergency is over.
00:03:18.840
We can all breathe a sigh of relief.
00:03:20.540
Oh, wait a minute.
00:03:21.200
The government also announced that they are going to continue with the completely egregious
00:03:25.920
practice of stealing people's bank accounts, freezing their bank accounts, making them unbanked,
00:03:31.700
basically removing them from the modern economy.
00:03:33.680
So Chrystia Freeland speaking on Wednesday, she said this about bank accounts.
00:03:37.000
She said, concerning bank accounts, the process of unfreezing these bank accounts has already
00:03:40.540
begun.
00:03:40.940
As the RCMP notes, I just like to stress that there are bank accounts that will remain frozen,
00:03:46.300
not because of the emergency orders.
00:03:48.560
There will be other orders, court orders and others.
00:03:52.040
And because of these orders, the bank accounts may still be frozen.
00:03:56.340
So even though they've removed this draconian piece of legislation that allowed them to do
00:04:01.080
all kinds of abuses and have all kinds of unprecedented power, the ability to freeze people's money,
00:04:07.440
the probably the most terrifying aspect of this entire ordeal, they're just going to hold
00:04:11.780
on to that for a little while longer.
00:04:13.520
Well, the Trudeau government admitted that a $20 donation, a donation as little as $20
00:04:18.600
to the Freedom Convoy may be enough to freeze your bank account.
00:04:22.240
This is True North's Cosmo Georgia reporting.
00:04:24.660
He writes this, banks across Canada have frozen Canadians accounts to the tune of nearly $8
00:04:29.040
million after the Trudeau government ordered a crackdown on the Freedom Convoy's financial
00:04:32.880
support.
00:04:33.680
According to Blacklock's reporter, a Department of Finance said during a Commons Finance Committee
00:04:37.580
meeting that even a $20 donation could lead to consequences.
00:04:42.080
This is a quote from the assistant deputy finance minister.
00:04:45.400
She said, it would be unlikely that someone who gave $20 three weeks ago or even $20 post
00:04:51.020
February 15th would be captured by a freeze, but it's not impossible.
00:04:54.840
So they're going to try their best not to freeze your bank account if you donated to the Freedom
00:04:58.800
Convoy, but it's not impossible.
00:05:00.720
In other words, it's possible.
00:05:01.960
What a mess.
00:05:02.620
What a total sloppy mess.
00:05:03.960
This is a Globe and Mail reporting.
00:05:05.600
They say that government officials said earlier this week that about 206 bank accounts holding a
00:05:11.020
total of $7.8 million were frozen using the emergency measures, most of which were identified
00:05:15.420
as having ties to organizers of the protest or owners of vehicles used to block roads.
00:05:21.880
Key word there, having ties to the protest and the owners of the vehicle.
00:05:25.840
So not even necessarily the individuals who were at the protest or the individuals who owned
00:05:30.400
trucks that were at the protest, just people who had ties to them.
00:05:33.400
That sort of vague language should really send a chill down your spine.
00:05:37.840
They've taken 206 bank accounts.
00:05:39.580
I should note that is more bank accounts than the U.S. federal government seized after 9-11.
00:05:45.720
After 9-11, when they were trying to crack down on the terrorists that funded the hijacking
00:05:50.220
of airplanes that flew into buildings and killed nearly 3,000 people, including Canadians,
00:05:55.300
they seized fewer than 150 bank accounts.
00:05:57.640
When a group of truckers roll into Canada, Canada seizes more bank accounts than the U.S.
00:06:01.720
government after 9-11.
00:06:03.380
Absolutely unbelievable.
00:06:04.820
I'll continue to read from this Globe and Mail report.
00:06:07.280
It says, Canada's banks have since unfrozen most accounts belonging to customers who were
00:06:11.700
linked to illegal blockades, according to the Canadian Bankers Association.
00:06:16.260
Dozens of people tied to the protests had access to financial services cut off last week
00:06:20.620
under emergency powers and acted to pressure protesters to leave downtown Ottawa.
00:06:24.640
Gotta love how the legacy media just slips in the government talking points here.
00:06:28.720
They were linked to illegal blockades.
00:06:30.880
Okay, I'll just note, yes, there were some illegal blockades that happened during the
00:06:35.080
protests.
00:06:35.540
The blocking of the Ambassador Bridge, that was an illegal blockade.
00:06:38.840
There were other blockades at international border crossings, at Canada-U.S. border crossings
00:06:42.380
that were indeed illegal.
00:06:43.940
But calling the Ottawa protests an illegal blockade is government propaganda.
00:06:48.040
That is not what happened.
00:06:49.300
It was a protest similar to every other protest that we see in Ottawa.
00:06:53.460
A whole bunch of people going up on the lawn and part of Parliament, blocking up Wellington
00:06:57.400
Street, people parking their cars there, people walking on the street.
00:07:00.840
That is not illegal in Canada.
00:07:02.400
That is not an illegal blockade.
00:07:03.880
That is a legal, peaceful protest.
00:07:06.400
And every time the legacy media comes out and says that it was an illegal blockade and
00:07:10.180
describe the Ottawa protests that way, the more that people don't trust legacy media,
00:07:14.740
because that is propaganda.
00:07:15.960
They are shilling for Trudeau.
00:07:17.140
They're using his language to try to confuse you, to try to make you on the side of Trudeau
00:07:21.760
and to tell you that there was something nefarious, something illegal about what the peaceful
00:07:26.480
truckers were doing.
00:07:27.280
That is wrong.
00:07:27.880
And I'm going to call it out every single time because it is maddening to see the use
00:07:31.100
of propaganda in the legacy media promoting Justin Trudeau and promoting his language he
00:07:35.980
used to justify this whole thing.
00:07:37.060
We know this whole thing had no justification.
00:07:39.200
We know that now because he revoked it 36 hours after he implemented it, even though nothing
00:07:44.060
changed in those 36 hours.
00:07:46.220
So after this thing was passed in the House of Commons on Monday night, it went to the
00:07:49.420
Senate.
00:07:49.660
The Senate was right in the middle of debating it when Justin Trudeau came out and revoked
00:07:53.380
it, making the Senate debate sort of a moot point.
00:07:55.640
However, I want to cover a little bit of what happened in the Senate because there were some
00:07:58.460
very good, very articulate points raised by conservative senators who articulated it perfectly
00:08:03.040
better than I can.
00:08:03.800
So I'm going to play you this clip from Senator Don Platt.
00:08:06.060
He is the leader of the opposition in the Senate, explaining perfectly well why Justin Trudeau
00:08:11.200
was completely wrong to enact this emergency act.
00:08:13.940
Here's that clip.
00:08:14.540
We're now being asked to vote on a government motion.
00:08:19.300
I agree with most of the legal and constitutional experts, most of the provinces, and most of
00:08:26.460
the observers in Canada and in the rest of the world.
00:08:31.040
This government, the Trudeau government, failed to make its case for the use of the Emergencies
00:08:37.060
Act.
00:08:38.060
Furthermore, the measures it adopted are not reasonable, not proportionate, and not necessary.
00:08:46.700
And finally, even if the declaration of emergency was warranted, and the measures satisfied,
00:08:53.220
the criteria I just mentioned, the emergency, no longer exists.
00:09:00.120
This is why, together with other reasons, I will explain why I will be voting against
00:09:05.540
Senator Gold's motion.
00:09:07.120
Not reasonable, not proportionate, and not necessary.
00:09:09.680
That is absolutely correct.
00:09:10.740
And that is exactly right.
00:09:11.920
Justin Trudeau should have never used this act in the first place.
00:09:15.100
Denise Batters, who is now also with the Conservatives, recall that Erin O'Toole kicked her out of
00:09:18.380
the Conservative Caucus.
00:09:19.320
Well, now that Erin O'Toole is gone, she is back with the Conservative Caucus.
00:09:22.460
And she also made a very, very passionate speech, reminding everybody that they were sitting
00:09:28.000
in the chamber, in the Senate chamber, the exact place where the Charter of Rights and
00:09:32.240
Freedoms was negotiated.
00:09:33.580
That shouldn't be lost on anybody.
00:09:35.480
Here is Denise Batters making an excellent point in the Senate.
00:09:38.660
It has not been lost on me, nor should it be on any of you, that this building, now the
00:09:43.400
Senate of Canada building, where I deliver this speech today, is the very building where
00:09:47.160
our Charter of Rights and Freedoms was negotiated.
00:09:50.000
Think of that history, Honourable Senators, when you consider whether to allow this federal
00:09:54.280
government to trample all over that charter.
00:09:56.300
People on both sides of the political spectrum have expressed the view that the Trudeau government's
00:10:01.240
invocation of the Emergencies Act in this situation is considerable government overreach.
00:10:06.100
We need to assert ourselves, Honourable Senators, and reject this unprecedented authoritarian overreach
00:10:11.800
by this federal government.
00:10:13.200
Reject this unprecedented authoritarian overreach by the federal government.
00:10:18.880
Well, lucky for the Trudeau government, he has the unwavering support of the legacy media.
00:10:23.400
So the legacy media were quick to jump in and let everyone know, nothing to see here.
00:10:27.900
Everything was handled perfectly well.
00:10:29.440
There was no abuse of power whatsoever.
00:10:31.360
This is all over now.
00:10:32.240
Let's just sweep it under the rug and move on with our lives.
00:10:35.120
So here is Andrew Coyne doing his best to try to justify what Justin Trudeau did, saying
00:10:38.980
that basically everything was exactly right.
00:10:41.580
So here is his timeline, very distorted, and I will explain why.
00:10:45.220
So Andrew Coyne says this, January 28th to February 14th, Ottawa paralyzed, police do nothing.
00:10:52.680
February 14th, federal emergency declaration.
00:10:55.620
February 18th to 20th, police move in, blockades clear.
00:10:59.540
February 23rd, emergency declaration lifted.
00:11:02.800
In sum, emergency declaration restores order, is lifted soon after, and then he mocks his
00:11:07.360
critics, saying outrage.
00:11:09.020
Basically, Andrew Coyne just thinks that Justin Trudeau is hunky-dory.
00:11:11.900
He handled this all perfectly well, nothing to see here, nothing was wrong.
00:11:16.100
Well, there are a few problems with Andrew Coyne's timeline.
00:11:18.680
I created my own timeline because Andrew Coyne just didn't get the facts right here.
00:11:23.100
Okay, so yes, a convoy rolled into town on January 28th.
00:11:26.520
It started a week earlier when they decided that they were going to do their slow roll
00:11:29.880
from Vancouver all the way.
00:11:31.980
New convoys were created all over the country.
00:11:34.260
Everyone started going to Ottawa, converging onto Ottawa to show their displeasure with the
00:11:38.880
Trudeau government with the mean-spirited, heavy-handed vaccine mandates at a time when
00:11:43.340
the vaccine mandates have been proven to be not effective at all.
00:11:47.880
Look, everybody who's had Omicron has recovered.
00:11:50.480
They're ready to move on with their lives.
00:11:52.280
The vaccine mandate is unnecessary at this point.
00:11:55.360
Okay, so the protest moves into town.
00:11:57.660
It was a noisy protest, correct, but it was also a peaceful protest and a legal protest.
00:12:02.640
So saying that Ottawa was paralyzed is completely hyperbolic and untrue.
00:12:07.640
There was a small part of Ottawa that was disturbed by this.
00:12:10.820
It was a noisy protest.
00:12:11.980
The purpose of a protest is to be noisy, is to be disruptive, is to make people feel uncomfortable.
00:12:16.780
In this case, make the elites who live in Ottawa, who make all the decisions, make them
00:12:20.960
feel uncomfortable to know how uncomfortable they're making people feel with their heavy-handed
00:12:25.780
orders.
00:12:26.700
Okay, so we agree that there was a protest in Ottawa January 28th.
00:12:31.360
I would say it was a noisy protest and the police did their job.
00:12:34.000
The job of the police is to keep the peace, to keep things calm.
00:12:37.080
During that period of time, there was no violence.
00:12:39.880
There were no major arrests.
00:12:40.960
There's no property damage.
00:12:41.940
It was a very calm, albeit noisy, albeit disruptive protest.
00:12:47.060
So police do nothing isn't true.
00:12:48.860
It's not the police's job to solve a political problem.
00:12:51.180
It is not the police's job to make Trudeau's problems go away.
00:12:54.840
Trudeau could have met with the truckers.
00:12:56.120
Trudeau could have tried to hear the truckers.
00:12:58.280
Trudeau could have made a good-faith effort to try to negotiate in some way with the truckers
00:13:03.060
to say, okay, I understand your point.
00:13:04.800
Let's perhaps lift this mandate or let's make more exemptions for people who don't want
00:13:09.140
to get vaccinated at this point.
00:13:10.860
Instead, what did he do?
00:13:11.780
He poured gasoline on the fire.
00:13:13.280
He called them racist.
00:13:14.140
He called them Nazis.
00:13:14.940
He said that he wanted nothing to do with it.
00:13:16.480
He demonized an entire class of working people in a very divisive way.
00:13:21.420
Most Canadians see it that way.
00:13:23.000
Okay.
00:13:23.180
Andrew Coyne missed this point, which was that on February 13th, the day before the
00:13:27.180
federal emergency was declared, the Ambassador Bridge was cleared.
00:13:31.660
So yes, there was an illegal blockade.
00:13:33.260
It happened on the Ambassador Bridge that connects Windsor to Detroit.
00:13:36.120
That was cleared over the weekend.
00:13:37.700
The Ambassador Bridge was cleared using the existing laws on the books.
00:13:41.080
So the next day after the Ambassador Bridge had already been cleared, Justin Trudeau comes
00:13:44.600
in and declares an emergency, even though there was no current blockades at that time.
00:13:49.140
Regardless, the journalists cheered and cheered for their hero.
00:13:51.860
said, hooray for Trudeau.
00:13:53.060
Let's get rid of this mess.
00:13:54.740
February 18th to 20th, Coyne says that police moved in and blockades were cleared.
00:13:59.300
I clarified that a little bit to show what really went on, which was that the police
00:14:02.740
crushed a peaceful protest.
00:14:04.940
Then on February 21st, after the protest was already gone, the Emergency Act was passed in
00:14:09.840
the House of Commons.
00:14:11.100
And two days later, even though nothing changed, the Emergency Act was lifted and journalists
00:14:15.980
are just pretending that there is nothing to see there.
00:14:19.180
Mark Gerritsen, a liberal MP, likewise made the same point, basically, that nothing was
00:14:24.020
done wrong, nothing to see here.
00:14:25.320
Let's all just move on with our lives.
00:14:26.700
Everything was handled properly.
00:14:28.180
He writes this, the Emergency Act exactly served its purpose.
00:14:31.660
It was one, targeted only where it was needed.
00:14:34.460
Two, proportionate to the threat.
00:14:36.480
Three, lasted only as long as needed.
00:14:38.400
And four, always maintained charter rights.
00:14:41.360
I mean, that whole, okay, well, that whole thing is wrong.
00:14:43.700
Targeted only where needed.
00:14:44.720
And where exactly was it needed?
00:14:46.300
Because by the time it was enacted and passed, the protest was already gone, okay?
00:14:51.540
Proportionate to the threat, they used undue force, excessive force, against unarmed, peaceful
00:14:56.340
protesters to clear them up because Trudeau simply didn't want them there.
00:14:59.320
It was a political problem, not a threat, not a national security threat, regardless of
00:15:03.660
how many times liberals repeat that.
00:15:05.380
Lasted only as long as needed.
00:15:06.760
Well, it wasn't needed at all.
00:15:08.200
Always maintained the charter rights.
00:15:09.660
I can't wait until the conservatives are in power and there is a big protest that rolls
00:15:14.040
into town or there is a big foreign-funded environmental movement or protest and all
00:15:18.940
of a sudden the conservatives start considering using some of these same tactics against the
00:15:23.480
left, against liberals.
00:15:24.580
I wonder how they'll feel about their charter rights when, if and when, a conservative government
00:15:28.880
ever seizes the bank accounts of political activists on the left.
00:15:32.280
I'm sure they will have a different tune.
00:15:33.900
Well, Candace Bergen, who's the interim leader of the Conservative Party, came out with a pretty
00:15:37.560
strong statement.
00:15:38.360
She wrote this, the Conservative Party knew it was wrong.
00:15:40.540
Canadians knew he was wrong.
00:15:42.060
The PM was wrong when he invoked it.
00:15:44.140
He was wrong when he voted to continue it at 8 p.m. on Monday.
00:15:47.660
He was wrong when he made it a confidence vote.
00:15:50.340
Nothing has changed between Monday and today other than a flood of concerns from Canadian
00:15:54.360
citizens, bad press, and international ridicule.
00:15:58.000
It's a really good point because you wonder, so what did change?
00:16:00.840
What was the main thing that changed between Monday night when they voted this thing in with
00:16:04.600
a confidence vote and Wednesday afternoon when they lifted it?
00:16:07.740
Well, what changed?
00:16:08.540
I'll tell you what changed.
00:16:09.780
Polling.
00:16:10.220
Public opinion polls came out, and again, it did not look good for Justin Trudeau.
00:16:14.740
So an Ipsos poll came out on Thursday reflecting what had been happening in the week prior.
00:16:19.340
And I'm sure PMO or Justin Trudeau's inner circle got their hands on this, or they had
00:16:22.860
their own internal polling that was saying the exact same thing.
00:16:25.820
But this global poll came out, and it's pretty devastating for Justin Trudeau.
00:16:30.220
It shows that Trudeau gets a failing grade from Canadians.
00:16:33.580
So I'm just going to read this piece because it's really interesting, not just to see the
00:16:37.340
facts of the poll, but also how global news and the legacy media cover Justin Trudeau and
00:16:42.740
cover this convoy.
00:16:44.420
So here's global news.
00:16:45.860
It says, Trudeau's convoy response gets a failing grade, but even fewer support protesters'
00:16:50.980
polls.
00:16:51.300
So they even have to put it in.
00:16:52.480
Even though Justin Trudeau is the leader of the country, it is his responsibility to keep
00:16:56.280
peace, keep order, and keep the country united.
00:16:58.500
Instead of just focusing on how he gets a failing grade, they had to add in, oh, but
00:17:03.160
don't worry, he's still more popular than those working class truckers, as if that helps.
00:17:07.600
But they just had to throw that in there.
00:17:09.300
Okay.
00:17:09.600
So I'll read from the story.
00:17:10.900
It says, as the so-called freedom convoy comes to an end in Ottawa, they even put freedom
00:17:15.640
convoy in scare quotes there.
00:17:17.440
It says, Canadians remain divided on how they feel about the protests.
00:17:20.660
According to a new Ipsos poll published Thursday, Canadians' approval of Justin Trudeau's
00:17:24.620
handling of the convoy blockade was only seven points higher than that of the protesters.
00:17:28.460
The poll conducted exclusively for Global News showed that 43% of Canadians approved of
00:17:34.240
the way Trudeau handled the three-week-long protests, while 36% supported the truckers.
00:17:39.760
So the way that they're even painting this and showing this is like kind of trying to
00:17:43.640
pit Justin Trudeau versus the truckers.
00:17:46.700
And in our parliamentary system, 43% approval rating isn't that bad.
00:17:50.860
What they bury a little further down is that a staggering 52% of people said that Justin
00:17:57.440
Trudeau's rhetoric and the way that he approached the situation made things worse and that he
00:18:01.880
was mostly responsible for what happened.
00:18:03.700
So rather than putting that side by side, 43% approved, 53% that he was to fault.
00:18:09.000
They bury the 53% later on and they pit him against a lower support level for the truckers.
00:18:16.260
It continues to go on.
00:18:17.160
And it says, in Ontario, where most of the protests actively was focused, 49% approved
00:18:22.100
of Doug Ford's handling.
00:18:23.320
So Ford had a higher approval rating than Trudeau, even though they essentially took the same
00:18:27.060
position.
00:18:27.500
The only difference was that Justin Trudeau was far more divisive in his language.
00:18:31.100
And I want to read you this paragraph because it really just shows you the mindset of the
00:18:35.680
people who write the news and the people who conduct these polls.
00:18:38.680
They're always on the side of the liberals.
00:18:40.360
They're always cheering for the liberals.
00:18:41.540
They're always cheering for Trudeau.
00:18:42.620
And let me explain what I mean.
00:18:43.480
This is a quote, it says, what's particularly worrying is that 52% of the people that we
00:18:49.160
interviewed said that the prime minister's divisive rhetoric and the way that he approached
00:18:53.600
the protest was mostly responsible for what happened.
00:18:56.300
Daryl Bricker, CEO of Ipsis Public Affairs told Trudeau.
00:18:59.720
So wait a minute.
00:19:00.700
What's particularly worrying is that 52% of Canadians oppose Trudeau.
00:19:04.940
Why would that be particularly worrying for anyone other than Justin Trudeau himself and
00:19:09.200
other than the PMO and Trudeau's inner circle?
00:19:11.620
Why would the head of a polling company say that it's particularly worrying that Canadians
00:19:17.300
oppose Trudeau?
00:19:18.660
I mean, just the mindset of the way that they write the news and they put this stuff together
00:19:23.200
is just really, really telling.
00:19:25.420
So I'll continue reading.
00:19:26.300
It says this.
00:19:27.000
Bricker said that the issue here is that even though authorities may not like it, data is
00:19:31.320
showing that protesters have gained a certain amount of sympathy among the Canadian population.
00:19:36.820
The poll also states a deep generational divide is evident with a majority of those 18 to 34,
00:19:43.180
58%, and 35 to 54, 53%, sympathizing with the protesters compared to only 32% of them aged
00:19:51.840
over 55.
00:19:52.540
That is really bad news for Justin Trudeau.
00:19:54.580
The fact that 18 to 34-year-olds, nearly 60%, nearly two-thirds of people in that younger
00:20:00.020
age group sympathized with the convoy, not good news at all for Justin Trudeau.
00:20:05.940
One other bit of news I want to cover here, which is, I mentioned this on the show the
00:20:09.600
other day that Tamara Litch, one of the organizers and the one that started the GoFundMe campaign,
00:20:14.420
a Métis woman, she was arrested during the police action over the weekend.
00:20:18.680
And I mentioned that she was denied bail.
00:20:20.480
What I didn't mention at the time, because it wasn't out yet, was that the person who
00:20:24.280
was presiding over the case, the judge presiding over the case that denied Tamara Litch bail
00:20:28.780
was a former Liberal Party candidate.
00:20:32.160
She was one of, she ran for Justin Trudeau's Liberal Party in the 2011 election.
00:20:37.680
She lost and then Trudeau appointed her to the federal bench.
00:20:41.140
She is now the one overseeing this.
00:20:42.940
This is, this is an insane conflict of interest.
00:20:45.540
The fact that this judge hasn't recused herself from this case is insane because the appearance
00:20:50.720
of political interference, political bias of undermining, again, of our judicial system
00:20:55.780
and the rule of law is really, really, really, really bad.
00:20:58.860
So this judge also made 71 donations to the Liberal Party between 2009 and 2014, ranging amounts
00:21:05.540
from $5 to $1,186.
00:21:09.340
And here is Justin Trudeau back in 2013, promoting her in a video saying that she is, has vision
00:21:15.400
and she's authentic.
00:21:16.420
Here he is endorsing a judge who is now denying bail to one of these organizers.
00:21:22.060
This is unbelievable.
00:21:22.980
Here is what that looked like.
00:21:24.540
It's an extraordinary pleasure for me to tell you how much I have great admiration for Julie Bourgeois.
00:21:31.200
Her vision, her authenticity, her strength is going to be an amazing asset, both of the
00:21:38.080
people of Glengarry Prescott Russell, but also to everyone in the House of Commons after
00:21:42.360
the next elections when I will have, hopefully, the honor of sitting beside her in the House.
00:21:48.400
Thank you very much.
00:21:49.680
So this judge, Judge Bourgeois, she now says, I cannot be assured that if I release you into
00:21:54.740
the community, you will not re-offend.
00:21:56.780
So she's held without the possibility of bail because supposedly she's a threat to public
00:22:03.300
safety.
00:22:03.680
Well, wait a minute.
00:22:04.180
The Emergency Act is over now.
00:22:05.920
So the threat is over, according to Justin Trudeau.
00:22:08.180
They no longer need the Emergency Act.
00:22:10.120
And yet a Métis woman who organized a GoFundMe campaign can't be released because she's a threat.
00:22:15.420
This is wild.
00:22:16.220
Again, this is Banana Republic kind of stuff.
00:22:18.300
Keep in mind that the deranged left-wing activists, Antifa activists who rammed his car into the
00:22:24.000
protest, who hit four protesters with his car, that guy, yeah, that guy was released on bail.
00:22:28.900
No problem.
00:22:29.420
He's facing 11 serious charges.
00:22:31.740
He assaulted people, injured people, tried to murder people.
00:22:34.600
And all he had to do was post $10,000 bail.
00:22:37.460
He's allowed out.
00:22:38.220
No big deal.
00:22:39.120
But when it comes to the organizer at an event who committed no violence, who committed
00:22:42.960
no assault, who has been peaceful throughout, apparently she is a threat to public and can't
00:22:49.420
be released.
00:22:49.920
Look, Justin Trudeau's abuses of power continue, even though the Emergency Act is over.
00:22:54.180
He's declared it over.
00:22:55.020
He's admitted that it was all a political facade.
00:22:58.000
Well, his abuses of power continue and Canadians are continuing to take note.
00:23:02.080
Most have concluded that despite the media cheerleading, despite the spin and the propaganda
00:23:06.040
being fed to you by the legacy media, that Justin Trudeau is the big loser of these blockades.
00:23:11.760
He ignored the legitimate concerns of the working class.
00:23:14.300
He demonized the truckers.
00:23:15.640
He called them every name in the book.
00:23:16.720
And he poured gasoline on the fire rather than being a leader and dealing with it.
00:23:21.040
He then hid.
00:23:21.940
He hid out in an undisclosed location for weeks, waiting for someone else to solve his problem.
00:23:27.360
Well, when all else failed, he staged an unprecedented power grab to squash a peaceful protest.
00:23:33.740
People saw and people will remember that.
00:23:36.040
No amount of media spin will make that go away.
00:23:38.860
Trudeau gambled and he lost.
00:23:40.480
I'm Candace Malcolm and this is The Candace Malcolm Show.
00:23:46.720
It's the Candace Malcolm Churchill.
00:23:55.380
He'll check this out.
