Mark Slapinski

00:00:00.000 hey everybody i got some shocking news for you today mark carney has begun the process of

00:00:04.960 arresting journalists for the heinous crime of reporting negatively on the liberal government

00:00:10.080 let's take a look at that i am being criminally investigated i just received the letter from the

00:00:15.760 government from the office of canada's election commissioner informing me that i'm being

00:00:20.960 investigated for my reporting during canada's 45th general election the stories in question

00:00:26.880 detail the alleged history of thomas keeper someone you probably know of by now he's the now fired

00:00:32.480 liberal candidate for calgary confederation juno news worked diligently to ensure the accuracy of

00:00:38.400 what we published and nothing then or now undermines its truth we went above and beyond to ensure that

00:00:44.080 we were reporting facts that were in the public interest we not only gave the liberal candidate

00:00:49.040 thomas keeper chance after chance to answer very troubling allegations he refused i even hand

00:00:55.360 delivered an envelope with our questions to his office and instead of responding he called the

00:01:01.360 police on me and lied accusing me of assault now the entire encounter was recorded caught on camera and

00:01:08.800 the video makes it abundantly clear that his allegation was false and within hours of our

00:01:13.680 publication what do you know the liberal party fired him some conservatives wish that we had waited

00:01:18.720 that our newsroom and held the story until after the nomination so that keeper would be stuck on the

00:01:23.840 ballot after the nomination deadline and it would secure the seat for conservatives but journalism

00:01:29.760 is not about party strategy it's about informing the public during an election no less and that's

00:01:34.480 what we did now mark carney he's furious and he's using an authoritarian law implemented by justin

00:01:40.000 trudeau to investigate me for the crime of reporting news that humiliated the liberal party of canada

00:01:45.920 and i warned you about this i was one of the few people that was blowing the whistle warning you that

00:01:51.200 mark carney was going to start doing this and now it's happening and we'll come back to this later

00:01:56.480 in the video carney knows that pauliev is winning pauliev is rising in the polls and he's coming back

00:02:02.320 to the house of commons in a couple weeks to hold carney accountable i truly believe that carney is

00:02:07.040 scared and he's using dirty tricks to silence his opposition let's continue with the video in iran i'd be

00:02:14.160 executed for embarrassing the regime in north korea i'd be sent to a labor camp in china i'd be carted off to

00:02:19.920 some off the book black site and never heard from again and in canada in canada i'm threatened with

00:02:25.440 up to five years in federal prison and a devastating fifty thousand dollar fine and this is disgusting 0.64

00:02:31.680 i've never met kian bexty but i'm familiar with his work i don't always agree with everything he says

00:02:37.200 but i don't like the fact that the liberal government is going after him this is an attack on

00:02:41.920 free speech and whether or not you like rebel news or juno news it doesn't matter first they come for

00:02:48.080 them next they'll be coming for you i don't know how long this fight will last or if i'll be in

00:02:52.960 prison by this time next year but i do know this if it goes to trial i will take it to the supreme

00:02:57.760 court of canada and those justices six of nine who were appointed by justin trudeau will be forced

00:03:03.200 to declare once and for all whether freedom of the press still exists in this country this is

00:03:07.760 obviously some serious right here the one thing i like about bexty is that that guy's a fighter

00:03:13.040 and he's going to fight this to the death and i have a lot of respect for that canada once stood

00:03:17.520 as a beacon for press freedom and today i joined journalists in afghanistan and sudan who face prison

00:03:23.920 for reporting the news during an election i'm innocent section 2b of the charter guarantees

00:03:31.280 freedom of expression and the press and this investigation is meant to scare me and you the

00:03:37.440 liberal machine may try to twist the law and silence me but they will fail they may try to break me but

00:03:44.800 they will not i will fight this investigation i will protect my sources and i will never waver in my

00:03:51.600 pursuit of the truth wherever it leads me and to be quite frank with you i'm a bit scared myself i

00:03:57.760 wouldn't be surprised if carney's rcmp comes to my door next i really hope polyev puts out a statement

00:04:03.520 about this at least while he still can now to be fair carney warned us about this he said that he was

00:04:09.360 going to crack down on free speech and in case you forget i'll show you the clip right here american

00:04:14.080 online platforms have become seas of racism misogyny anti-semitism islamophobia and hate in all its forms

00:04:23.200 and they're being used by criminals to harm our children

00:04:27.120 my government will act and today we're announcing our plan to fight crime to protect canadians and

00:04:36.880 to build communities that are safe secure and strong a plan to make canada secure to make canada strong

00:04:44.800 now in case you don't know how this works whenever the liberal government says they're going to crack

00:04:48.800 down on racism misogyny or islamophobia what they're really trying to say is they're going to

00:04:54.000 crack down on conservatives and anyone that has an opinion that they don't like trudeau tried this

00:04:59.680 before with the online harms act fortunately that never went through however carney is picking up

00:05:05.200 where trudeau left off we're becoming closer and closer to england every day in case you're unfamiliar

00:05:11.120 in england right now you can be sent to prison for the heinous crime of saying something online that

00:05:17.360 the government doesn't like in 1984 called and he wants its truth ministry of truth back the uk has

00:05:23.440 created an elite police unit known as the national internet intelligence investigations team dedicated

00:05:32.000 to monitoring anti-migrant social media posts leaders claim its purpose is to detect early signs

00:05:38.560 of potential unrest that's some scary right there but just wait it gets even worse while we're here

00:05:45.280 if you're enjoying this episode don't forget to like and subscribe that is while i'm still around

00:05:49.920 and not in jail let's get back to the video unrest like this protest and counter-protest

00:05:55.680 had erupted after a 38 year old asylum-seeking migrant was charged with sexual assault for

00:06:00.720 attempting to kiss a 14 year old girl despite the surveillance uk's prime minister insists he still

00:06:06.880 believes in free speech we've had free speech for a very very long time here so we're very proud about

00:06:12.960 that well with us now to react is public news founder michael schellenberger michael it is true

00:06:22.240 that the united kingdom and the west has a fairly robust tradition long-standing when it comes to free

00:06:28.160 speech but i'm not so sure that's true anymore i mean there's story after story about people being

00:06:35.200 thrown behind bars in the uk even for tweets that they have deleted with longer prison sentences than

00:06:42.080 people who've committed actual physical violent crimes yeah that's right guy thanks for having

00:06:49.200 me on yeah i mean it's incredible story i mean there's a woman that's in prison for 31 months

00:06:54.400 which is four months longer than a child rapist is in prison and what all she was she did was have a 1.00

00:07:00.000 tweet up for four hours that she ended up taking down this is a sweeping crackdown on free speech in 0.87

00:07:05.760 great britain that we have not seen anything like in maybe hundreds of years i mean it's really

00:07:11.440 astonishing it's happening on multiple levels keep in mind they were already arresting 30 people a day

00:07:17.600 for wrong speech in britain before this now they have a special police task force to constantly

00:07:24.080 monitor social media including x formerly twitter and they can stop content based on age verification so

00:07:31.360 they can stop content saying oh this is harmful to mental health and then x recently just a few days ago

00:07:37.280 did block content on the basis of the british order to be able to identify if people were old

00:07:42.240 enough to see it so the other thing you mentioned there was the islamophobia they're not going to

00:07:46.880 allow people to criticize mass migration they're going to call it islamophobia and a hate crime and

00:07:51.840 prevent it so this is george orwell i mean george orwell perfectly predicted this in 1984 when he wrote

00:07:58.000 his book in the mid-40s and this guy's a hundred percent right this is literally what george orwell talked

00:08:04.400 about in 1984. the funny thing is that 1984 was supposed to be a novel it was supposed to be a

00:08:10.960 novel yet what george orwell was talking about became true and it hasn't even been a hundred years

00:08:16.880 funny enough i actually have a copy of 1984 in my living room as you can see right here and if you

00:08:21.840 haven't read it i highly recommend it go to the bookstore go to the library pick it up and read it

00:08:27.680 that is while you still can you know michael i was just in europe at a conference and talking to a

00:08:32.560 number of the people there i mean they are married to this idea that you have to monitor the internet

00:08:37.200 that you shouldn't be able to say certain basic things including posting memes or things that are

00:08:42.480 counter to what they believe politically in terms of the political party that's in charge it's not

00:08:46.240 just the uk it's also the eu they have this new digital services act which is complicated trade

00:08:52.240 between the united states and the european union and even the deal that the president just got it's an

00:08:57.520 un you know it's an issue that has not been satisfied according to the administration so

00:09:02.800 i don't see this going in a direction that's going to get better despite the pressure i mean

00:09:07.600 the uk and the eu are really dedicated to this idea of putting people in prison

00:09:12.720 for saying the wrong thing or thinking the wrong thing

00:09:17.360 yeah absolutely it's europe's crackdown is maybe the worst in the world but i mean it's happening

00:09:21.600 everywhere and it's actually unfortunately accelerated since trump was elected

00:09:25.120 so it's the eu it's britain it's ireland wants to read your social meet your social your private

00:09:30.080 text messages canada brazil the strategy here is to make it so that the social media companies

00:09:37.440 will basically censor this content for everybody so i think a lot of americans go i don't really

00:09:41.440 care what happens in some other country britain or europe they should care because this is a

00:09:45.680 strategy to basically encircle the united states and then have these social media companies pressure

00:09:50.720 they just delete censor this content for everybody it's coming at a time when it's always it's

00:09:55.760 overly political the the populist parties in europe just like trump and the maga republicans the united

00:10:01.520 states are focused on mass migration so they want to censor that content because it's been so 1.00

00:10:06.400 politically powerful for these opposition leaders including germany france romania they're basically

00:10:12.160 trying to prevent the opposition from competing at all both through censorship and just keeping them

00:10:16.640 off the ballot i will just say one positive thing is that trump today uh yesterday he called out the

00:10:21.760 prime minister in britain today he's imposed serious tariffs on brazil because of their censorship and

00:10:27.360 because of their lawfare in preventing a presidential front runner the last president bolsonaro from

00:10:33.040 competing in next year's elections well and also just to add to that i mean americans now have to worry

00:10:38.240 about traveling to europe and saying the wrong thing or posting the wrong thing or have posted the wrong

00:10:44.400 thing many years ago being in these so-called western countries they could face arrests by the europeans

00:10:50.960 or the canadians absolutely yeah absolutely i mean and that's how that's how they want that's how 1984

00:10:58.000 works is they want you to be afraid of what you're going to say they want you to be afraid of saying

00:11:03.120 something controversial and then not expressing it that's one of the most damaging things to free speech

00:11:08.400 here you have america was found on the idea we have to be free to speak our minds europe has taken

00:11:13.840 us in an absolutely terrifying and totalitarian direction yeah thanks uh thank god for the first

00:11:19.440 amendment here yeah absolutely michael schellenberg burger thank you very much this is a perfect example

00:11:24.800 of why the first amendment is so important unfortunately in canada we don't have a first

00:11:29.120 amendment we have the charter and the charter is supposed to protect freedom of expression however

00:11:35.120 it seems that the charter means less and less every single day and we have trudeau and carny to thank

00:11:40.320 for that but i still maintain hope that one day polyev will be prime minister and we can put this all

00:11:45.520 behind us until then i'll be fighting every single day to keep you informed and let you know the truth

00:11:52.800 that is until carny's rcmp kicks down my door and puts me in jail so buckle up patriots this is no longer

00:11:59.040 a battle this is war
