Rebel News Podcast - BREAKDOWN： Trucker Commission Day 20 ｜ Coutts mayor testifies ｜ Ft. Eva Chipiuk

00:00:00.000 At Rebel News, we're not afraid to have dangerous discussions, and we want to have them with

00:00:03.620 you at our upcoming Rebel Live events, first in Toronto, November 19th, and again in Calgary,

00:00:09.820 Saturday, November 26th.

00:00:11.320 Just go to rebelnewslive.com to get your tickets today.

00:00:19.000 All right, good evening, ladies and gentlemen.

00:00:21.520 Good afternoon to the people of Alberta and the great province of Alberta, where it is

00:00:25.040 currently 4 p.m. Alberta time, right now it's earlier than 6 p.m. here in Ottawa.

00:00:32.940 I hope you guys are doing well.

00:00:34.360 I am joined here once again by my colleague Selene Gallus from, once again, the great province

00:00:39.300 of Alberta.

00:00:40.420 Selene, how are you doing?

00:00:41.120 I'd just like to point out that I get so incredibly happy every time he references my province as

00:00:46.920 being great and incredible, because it is.

00:00:49.520 I'm doing great also in that way, so thank you.

00:00:52.720 How's the weather?

00:00:53.360 Are you missing the weather in Alberta?

00:00:54.560 What are you missing the most from Alberta?

00:00:57.380 The people, the Rocky Mountains, my, yeah, no, probably just those things, and the minus

00:01:05.360 27 weather with like three feet of snow, is it right now?

00:01:10.400 Yeah.

00:01:11.160 You know, as I always say, the city of Ottawa is a gorgeous city, but it is so corrupt to

00:01:16.840 its core.

00:01:17.200 But it's beautiful, and the weather is not too bad right now.

00:01:19.860 I'm also joined by Sydney Fizzer from Rebel News, once again from Alberta.

00:01:23.680 Sydney, how are you doing?

00:01:24.920 I'm doing all right.

00:01:25.820 It's been an interesting day.

00:01:27.220 We had the mayor of Coutts testify, so I look forward to talking about that.

00:01:32.000 Perfect.

00:01:32.560 All right.

00:01:33.000 So, Selene, you were the one live tweeting today for the whole day.

00:01:37.860 How did you find it?

00:01:38.920 What are the main takeaways from today?

00:01:41.460 Well, we had three testimonies from, well, mainly two testimonies, actually, and we'll get

00:01:46.360 into that a little bit later on, I believe.

00:01:48.140 But we had Jim Willett, that was like, sorry, Sid just said, that was the mayor of Coutts.

00:01:55.140 His testimony was very, very interesting.

00:01:57.200 We're going to have some clues for you guys to take a look at so that we can break those

00:02:00.200 down more in depth.

00:02:01.700 And then we had Ian Freeman at the very end.

00:02:05.600 He was the Solicitor General for Ontario.

00:02:08.040 And it was essentially the breakdown of transportation in the way that tow trucks were used, as well

00:02:15.640 as some of the safety routes and plans constructed in and around the convoy.

00:02:19.780 Also, some additional information on the convoy and any activities relating to the areas where

00:02:26.300 there were convoys or slow rolls that we saw here in Ontario, as well as Alberta.

00:02:32.080 And yeah, so that's pretty much it.

00:02:34.180 We'll get more into the third testimony that will begin tomorrow, we'll resume, I guess.

00:02:39.360 But what were your main takeaways?

00:02:41.280 Well, you know, just before we get to our main takeaways, I want to talk about that.

00:02:43.940 If you want to follow Sydney's live tweeting, because she is live tweeting the whole proceedings

00:02:48.520 straight from Ottawa, straight from the building where the commission is being held at,

00:02:54.480 you can head on to twitter.com, now owned by Elon Musk.

00:02:59.480 And you can go to see Selene's account, you can go to at Selene, C-X-L-I-V.

00:03:05.520 So it's at Selene, C-X-L-I-V.

00:03:09.860 And actually, it's S-E-L-E-N-E. 0.99

00:03:12.100 I will specify it's not a C, because if I had a dollar for every time.

00:03:15.500 Well, there you have it, folks.

00:03:16.580 Here it is on the screen.

00:03:17.760 It's even easier for you to take a look at it.

00:03:20.200 All right.

00:03:20.820 So today, as you mentioned, we have the testimonies.

00:03:22.880 I think what we will focus on the most is going to be Coos, especially with our friend 0.98

00:03:28.140 Sydney Fizzard, who is here.

00:03:30.600 We'll take a look at the testimony from the mayor of Coos, and we'll discuss, well, a bunch

00:03:35.940 of stuff.

00:03:36.800 By the way, before we begin, if you want to join us at a Rebel News live event, there's

00:03:42.840 going to be a Rebel News live event happening in Toronto on November 19th and in Calgary on

00:03:48.700 November 25th.

00:03:49.920 We will be there, well, not necessarily, we will do our best to be there, and we will

00:03:54.220 have Tamara Leach that will be there. 1.00

00:03:56.280 Ezra Levin is going to be there.

00:03:57.460 Sheila Henry is going to be there.

00:03:58.540 If you want to meet your favorite personalities, your favorite freedom fighters, just as Tamara

00:04:03.120 Leach, you can head on to rebelnewslive.com and get your tickets for either one of those

00:04:08.480 dates.

00:04:09.140 All right.

00:04:09.500 Let's get started with the live stream by taking a look at clip number one, part of the

00:04:14.380 testimony from the mayor of Coos, Alberta, the little city of Coos, located in

00:04:19.880 Alberta, what he had to do.

00:04:20.880 Let's take a look at that.

00:04:24.880 Greatly disrupted everyday life for Coos residents.

00:04:27.840 Could you maybe explain to us in what ways?

00:04:31.120 I have done a mental survey, and I think I had about a 70-30 split in the village, the 30

00:04:46.460 on my side and the 70 supporting the protest, regardless of what it meant.

00:04:52.860 We still have neighbors that won't talk to each other because of the protests.

00:05:05.160 They didn't get out.

00:05:06.660 We had a lot of collaborators, not collaborators, sympathetic people in the village who figured

00:05:12.760 it was our duty to feed everybody.

00:05:15.840 If they need a room, give them a room.

00:05:20.440 All right.

00:05:20.940 That was part of his long, lengthy testimony.

00:05:25.040 In summary, what did you make of the mayor's testimony, of Jim's testimony?

00:05:29.440 Well, I thought it was very interesting because obviously, as you know, he's the mayor of Coos,

00:05:33.400 so he's going to have, obviously, again, a little bit of a different perspective in regards

00:05:38.080 to the convoy that was there in Coos, but towards the—you know, I'm not going to jump

00:05:43.040 ahead, actually, but safe to say that it was interesting, and I don't think that it was—I

00:05:50.080 mean, it was no Steve Bell or Peter Slowly testimony, so I don't—I didn't dislike his

00:05:56.500 testimony, I'll just say.

00:05:57.880 What did you think, Sid?

00:05:59.160 Well, he is the Coos mayor, right?

00:06:02.780 Like you mentioned, he's not the mayor of Windsor, of Toronto.

00:06:06.360 He's coming from a very small arena, I guess you could say, in some senses, so it's interesting,

00:06:11.540 and he—in some ways, actually, I could see this, he is more beholden to those who he

00:06:17.500 represents in the town of Coos than most individuals.

00:06:19.700 Like, you think about the average Torontonian.

00:06:21.720 When's the next time you're going to see John Tory, right?

00:06:24.540 Whereas these individuals, they actually have to engage almost on a daily basis for some

00:06:28.720 individuals, of course.

00:06:29.940 In that proximity, it's—it's interesting to see, and I believe, as you mentioned in the

00:06:34.380 clip, my side was the 30 percent, the protest side was the 70 percent.

00:06:38.180 Yes.

00:06:39.340 And, you know, I got to be honest, there were times, I believe, you know, while we were down

00:06:43.260 there, where we heard of the mayor—sorry, I say we, Kian Simone to my left—we were down

00:06:48.280 there, and it felt like, and it seemed as though the mayor himself was feeding into some of the

00:06:52.280 fear that was associated with the protesters, telling people, you know, warning them about

00:06:56.500 the situation in very harsh terms, you could say.

00:07:00.940 So it's interesting.

00:07:02.680 I think he's had to kind of—he's been forced to maintain somewhat of an even keel, or whatever

00:07:08.760 the expression is there, because he is so closely associated with those who he represents in

00:07:14.220 Coutts.

00:07:14.600 Yeah, and that's a really good point.

00:07:15.920 You know, he also said that he initially went—or the first—one of the first times

00:07:20.740 he went to go and actually meet the protesters.

00:07:23.820 This was actually pulled from a CTV interview that he did at that time at the convoy there

00:07:28.480 in Coutts, where he revealed that he initially went down to go and meet the protesters to see

00:07:33.000 if they were as bad as, like, mainstream media portrayed them to be, and then he very soon

00:07:38.420 after revealed that they were not only not bad, and not as bad as mainstream media had

00:07:43.640 portrayed them to be, but actually they were peaceful, and he made mentions of them.

00:07:47.520 Some of them, he realized, were his neighbors and whatnot, and that he saw a big—it was a

00:07:53.960 very major portion of Coutts that he was able to see, like residents, locals, friends, I dare

00:07:59.760 say, potentially family, but Coutts is very small, if you're not aware.

00:08:03.760 Coutts, Alberta is the speck, right before the border of Montana, so.

00:08:09.840 Well, it's a small town, I think.

00:08:11.800 No, I've never been to Coutts, but you've been to Coutts.

00:08:14.000 I wouldn't think so.

00:08:15.140 Yeah, you've been to Coutts.

00:08:15.720 Yes, I've been to Coutts, yeah.

00:08:16.580 And he's been to Coutts.

00:08:18.040 K2, Kian Simone has been to Coutts as well.

00:08:20.700 You've all been covering what happened at the Coutts border blockade.

00:08:24.340 From what you've seen in Coutts, does his testimony corroborate what he saw with the

00:08:32.300 protesters, the general dynamic that he was talking about in regards to the protesters

00:08:37.880 at the Coutts border?

00:08:39.500 Do you think what he said corroborates what you saw on the ground?

00:08:44.520 I can only speak from, honestly, like the two days that I was actually there, but I know

00:08:50.840 that Cid and Kian would have a lot better opinion on there.

00:08:54.040 Yeah, what about you, in any specific census?

00:08:55.820 Well, I'm not sure.

00:08:56.660 The testimony, you know, he talked about how, in the text messages that we saw presented

00:09:01.940 at the commission, we saw him refer to the truckers as domestic terrorists.

00:09:06.800 Do you agree with that sentiment?

00:09:08.500 I know that we had a quick scrum with him afterwards, which we will show later, but.

00:09:12.140 Well, I mean, personally, I would suggest them to be domestic terrorists, but in terms of

00:09:16.500 his approach on the situation, I think he was trying to adhere to very specific legal

00:09:22.360 terms and guidelines in his approach.

00:09:24.540 Yeah.

00:09:24.820 But, you know, being down there, I think it's fair to say with a heavy hand is how his dialogue

00:09:30.900 came towards the protesters from the get go.

00:09:33.920 Yeah.

00:09:34.500 And I think he also mentioned it in his view.

00:09:37.480 In Coutts, Alberta, the people supporting the protest, there were 70% of the population

00:09:44.260 in Coutts that supported the protest and 30% that were opposed to the protest.

00:09:49.260 And I think that we saw, you know, Marco in his testimony, he talked about how yesterday

00:09:53.340 he talked about how he would talk and negotiate and have discussion with the school boards

00:09:59.220 and the residents that were there.

00:10:01.480 I think both testimonies contradict themselves a little bit with Marco saying that he spoke

00:10:06.020 to a lot of the people in the city, he wasn't able to negotiate with them.

00:10:09.100 And then the mayor is saying that, well, there was a huge split in the city.

00:10:12.860 Well, and you're going to think about how the mayor's conversations were going with the

00:10:18.140 federal, or not, pardon me, the federal government, but the provincial government, right?

00:10:21.080 How sturdy was their communication?

00:10:23.340 And then you replicate that with the provincial government and the federal government.

00:10:27.100 Well, how sturdy was their communication, right?

00:10:29.360 Were they actively assisting and, you know, had great communication?

00:10:32.720 No, it seems like the protesters themselves were probably the best

00:10:35.640 communicators out of the bunch.

00:10:37.540 Even though there may have been attempts made, it just seems ultimately that there

00:10:42.200 was a clogging of the system in terms of the internal communications of our government.

00:10:48.860 Well, very much so.

00:10:49.800 And a really good example of that would be the fact that it came to light that then Transport

00:10:54.640 Minister of Alberta, Raj Ansani, actually had plans to go to Coutts to be able to hear

00:11:00.900 them out and try to negotiate.

00:11:03.580 And it seems that she was actually prevented from doing that by the provincial government.

00:11:09.860 So you talk about the miscommunications, not just when you have a huge organization of

00:11:15.900 people that are, for the better part, totally leaderless, that are trying to work together.

00:11:21.640 And then you have the government.

00:11:22.520 And they're trying to work together to try and see what to do.

00:11:26.140 And then when someone finally proposes that they go forward and they're able to hear them

00:11:31.980 out and strike a deal, which we didn't see anywhere else, except for maybe when it also

00:11:35.600 came to light yesterday in Windsor that, what was it, the governor?

00:11:40.120 A letter.

00:11:40.180 Yeah, there was a letter that was sent to Windsor and was withheld from them because

00:11:43.960 the worry was, how could the very small comparison to the convoy in Ottawa, how could that small

00:11:52.160 group of people there at Windsor have the letter sent to them and not have a letter sent to

00:11:56.360 Ottawa?

00:11:56.720 So same thing.

00:11:57.800 Lots of communications.

00:11:59.320 That narrative, we know.

00:12:00.880 It's very familiar to us at this point.

00:12:02.460 The longer the commission goes on, the more it seems like it was a centralized effort in the

00:12:06.760 sense that it was one person guiding the ship from high up above in many senses and the

00:12:12.520 broken telephones from above.

00:12:13.800 And in many ways, it's quite the opposite of the demonstrations that were taking place.

00:12:18.700 It wasn't like, you know, who's the chain of the command?

00:12:21.520 And this is, you know, one of the issues that they're alluding to with the Freedom Convoy

00:12:26.080 and with the Coutts blockade is there was no one guy, one face image to these demonstrations.

00:12:33.560 There was no leader.

00:12:34.440 And because of that, it was the communication of those who presented themselves at these

00:12:40.280 demonstrations.

00:12:41.060 That was the communal conversations they were having is what drove their movement, as

00:12:46.720 opposed to what we see on the government then, where it seems like they would just ask the

00:12:50.240 person above them, you know, keep on going up the chain.

00:12:53.260 And unfortunately, that message or that the response that came back down was not indicative

00:12:59.820 or was not useful to the individuals who were requesting this assistance.

00:13:03.920 It was a decree brought down upon them.

00:13:06.700 Yeah.

00:13:06.920 Well, let's take a look at the second clip we have where the mayor, Jim Willett, speaks

00:13:10.680 to whether or not from what he saw, there was any sort of violence or harassment during

00:13:17.560 the Coutts border blockade.

00:13:19.260 Let's take a look at what he had since that.

00:13:20.620 Did you observe any violence or harassment during the protest?

00:13:32.380 Never did.

00:13:33.320 No.

00:13:34.480 Did you yourself receive any threats?

00:13:37.640 Uh, yes.

00:13:41.500 We got one death threat online, Facebook.

00:13:52.200 Serious enough that the RCMP took it seriously.

00:13:56.560 I'm not sure how good a threat it was because it was sent from a personal page.

00:14:02.240 That reminds me a little bit of what Jim Watson had when he said there was a death threat about

00:14:09.900 someone going to a mall and shooting him.

00:14:12.160 Well, you see, but what's interesting about this specific instance is that he doesn't go

00:14:16.300 in depth about what the threat was.

00:14:18.020 He says that there was a threat and he doesn't actually go into detail much more than that.

00:14:23.160 And then he actually works towards kind of revealing that he's not, he's not serious

00:14:29.220 if it was actually a real threat because the person used there, you're not going to make

00:14:33.160 an actual serious, violent death threat to anybody on your public.

00:14:37.980 Imagine doing that.

00:14:39.560 Imagine using your Twitter or your Facebook to do that, to private message someone and

00:14:43.140 actually be like, Hey, so this is what's going to happen.

00:14:45.580 That's not credible.

00:14:46.780 That doesn't make sense.

00:14:47.640 They would have for sure looked more into that.

00:14:49.620 And if I can add to that, this might be a clip we need to find, but Kian Simone, while

00:14:53.920 he was at the Coups Blockade, he brought to light how Premier Jason, former Premier Jason

00:14:59.300 Kenney's statement about an RCMP officer being assaulted was actually a blatant lie.

00:15:07.240 I don't know where exactly this might've come from, the internal communications perhaps of

00:15:10.700 the Kenney government.

00:15:12.140 But it's very interesting to see the kind of, I guess you want to call it a narrative that's

00:15:17.260 being put forward by them.

00:15:18.120 Yeah, it absolutely is a narrative.

00:15:20.520 And again, it doesn't matter if the blockade or the protests took place in Coutts, Alberta,

00:15:25.740 Windsor, Ontario, or here in Ottawa, it's the same narrative that the government officials

00:15:30.200 are all painting.

00:15:31.440 No, definitely.

00:15:32.180 And we'll go back to the mayor's testimony in a few minutes.

00:15:36.020 But for that, I want to show, following his testimony, and that's something that honestly

00:15:39.980 I was glad to see because liberals never agree to speak to us.

00:15:43.900 Four PCs never agree to speak to us.

00:15:45.880 Jim Watson, we saw what happened when we tried to speak to him.

00:15:49.280 Fail mayoral candidate, Catherine McKinney, didn't want to speak to me. 0.96

00:15:55.180 But this mayor, even though he opposed the movement, agreed to speak to us after his testimony,

00:16:00.500 we're able to ask him a few questions that I think we'll find interesting.

00:16:03.880 So take a look at how our exchange with the mayor of Coutts, Alberta, went.

00:16:09.280 Hey, sir.

00:16:10.020 Super quick question from me.

00:16:11.380 You said that 70% of the residents of Coutts, in your opinion, agreed with the protests,

00:16:17.540 with the truckers.

00:16:18.240 But you also called them in a text message, domestic terrorists, the truckers.

00:16:21.380 So is it fair to say that you consider your town a terrorism-supporting town if you think

00:16:26.940 that 70% of them agreed with the truckers?

00:16:29.480 Is it fair to say what?

00:16:31.000 That you consider your town and 70% of the residents agreed with the truckers.

00:16:34.900 Is it fair to say that you consider your town a terrorism-supporting town?

00:16:38.380 I guess you could twist it to say that, sure.

00:16:43.440 Could you still have the same view that the truckers were domestic terrorists?

00:16:47.320 I think whoever okayed blocking the highway was possibly there.

00:16:53.840 Like I said, I'm not a lawyer.

00:16:56.120 And do you agree with the general, just last thing, do you agree with the general message

00:16:59.740 of the convoy or of the blockage?

00:17:01.640 Do you agree with what they were fighting for?

00:17:06.140 What the weapons were fighting for?

00:17:07.820 No, no, I'm not talking about the weapons.

00:17:09.380 I'm talking, do you agree with the general message of the convoy in terms of the mandates,

00:17:13.500 the border restrictions and everything.

00:17:16.720 Do you agree with what they were standing for?

00:17:19.420 I think they were there first over the, as I said before, the federal governments of

00:17:26.420 both the U.S. and Canada had suddenly said that these guys that had been doing cross-border

00:17:32.540 trucking had no more permission to do that unless they got vaccinated, where for two years they

00:17:44.660 had been allowed to go back and forth.

00:17:47.600 Somebody said they were gods.

00:17:50.720 I wouldn't go that far, but they were the guys that were carrying all the weight.

00:17:55.860 And suddenly, the mandates applied to them as well.

00:18:01.660 And I think it was bad timing.

00:18:04.660 I think it was bad politics.

00:18:07.800 It wasn't delivered properly.

00:18:09.100 But it's way above my pay grade.

00:18:15.060 You know, I think it's a little bit of an odd response.

00:18:19.140 I failed to see where he actually aligns in terms of what he thinks of, well, the vaccine

00:18:25.780 mandates, the mandates for truckers.

00:18:27.440 You know, the truckers were the ones that were bringing us food for the past since we're

00:18:32.780 since we're born, really.

00:18:34.120 And they were the heroes of the pandemic.

00:18:36.300 They were the ones that were able to go from the U.S. to Canada, bring us food, bring us

00:18:41.140 milk, bring us what we need to get to live our life properly.

00:18:45.420 And then Justin Trudeau said, we don't need that.

00:18:47.980 We don't care about you.

00:18:48.820 We're going to impose a strict authoritarian mandate on you.

00:18:51.540 Even with all the hard work you've been doing, just because you refused to get the COVID-19

00:18:56.140 vaccine, you will not be allowed to do your job and serve Canadians properly.

00:19:01.900 I think it was disgraceful for Justin Trudeau to take that move.

00:19:04.320 But I failed to, I don't know if you saw it differently, but I failed to see where the

00:19:07.880 mayor aligns in terms of Justin Trudeau's decision.

00:19:10.580 And also above his pay grade, that's not a good response for me.

00:19:14.740 You know, you're the mayor.

00:19:15.620 You're representing those people.

00:19:17.180 They elected you to represent them.

00:19:19.760 How is it above your pay grade to talk about an issue that affects them?

00:19:24.220 I find it very weird.

00:19:26.060 Yeah, you know, I mean, okay, you just went on a little bit of a tangent.

00:19:32.260 So I'm trying to remember exactly.

00:19:34.240 But the point I wanted to be very specific about is that I don't, I don't, he didn't

00:19:40.100 even, he said that he didn't oppose the protesting coups.

00:19:45.140 He said that he didn't.

00:19:46.540 It was only at the point that he started to see the locals become affected by, you know,

00:19:53.620 if that was, if that was, you know, interfering with supply chain, local businesses, et cetera.

00:20:00.260 That's what he meant.

00:20:01.200 Like, maybe it's just because I'm an Albertan or because I have a little bit of sympathy

00:20:06.360 for the men or empathy, I suppose.

00:20:09.960 But it really is just such an Albertan thing, you know, especially small town, southern

00:20:14.640 Albertan to just be really, that's like your family, you know, that whole town.

00:20:18.560 And I, I believe that I could see from his testimony that it was very difficult for him

00:20:23.140 to try and structure his narrative with what I am, what I propose to be the narrative that

00:20:31.920 is supposed to fit this entire inquiry.

00:20:36.360 And it was a little bit frustrating because I think, again, like he said, he, it was, he

00:20:41.980 just really spoke about it from such a, from such a sympathetic standpoint.

00:20:46.400 And, uh, you know, he made those references to, to those, those people being, you know,

00:20:51.400 some of his, his neighbors, like friends, like you live in such a small town, you're

00:20:55.900 bound to know you could probably throw a stone and you'd hit within that proximity.

00:21:01.180 Every person that's in coots, you know? 1.00

00:21:03.160 Well, one of the other things too, is that while he, yeah, I agree with that.

00:21:06.260 And I'm sure he's super close to his constituent, especially in a small time, like a small town,

00:21:10.540 like you say, do you come from a small, small town in Alberta?

00:21:14.180 My friend, I come from Calgary, Alberta.

00:21:17.140 That's not a small town, but I remember in a past interview that he did a little while

00:21:23.160 ago in February, he spoke about the mandates.

00:21:25.400 He spoke about what the federal government is doing, what the federal government imposed.

00:21:31.180 on the truckers who deliver us goods and frankly, make us live our life every single day.

00:21:38.200 Um, and he didn't seem to be the biggest fan of the federal government.

00:21:41.220 So while I, while he seemed shy today to actually answer the question, give a clear position on

00:21:48.320 the mandate, he spoke a while ago about his view of the federal government.

00:21:52.080 And he said, and I call that you can't win a battle with the federal government.

00:21:56.140 Let's take a look at what he said back in February.

00:21:58.500 Their first attempt didn't appear to go too well.

00:22:03.120 So how confident are you that, that they'll get this done?

00:22:07.800 Well, I had a, uh, actually my deputy mayor who used to work for CBSA for a number of years

00:22:15.420 till he just retired, says you never win a battle with the government.

00:22:20.960 So it's, uh, it's, uh, it's unfortunate that, uh, people have taken it to this extreme.

00:22:30.460 And, uh, I, as I've said to everybody that asked me about this, I just want it to go

00:22:36.000 away.

00:22:36.940 So you see, while he says that no one wins a battle with the government, he still doesn't

00:22:41.920 seem to agree with the fact that the protesters were there.

00:22:44.500 And the protesters said, said, I don't care.

00:22:47.840 I'm standing my ground because that is my right.

00:22:50.060 He said, he said that they were taking it to extreme, which I find once again, very odd.

00:22:54.620 I find his, his answer is a little bit weird.

00:22:57.500 What do you think, Sid?

00:22:59.160 Uh, yeah, I, I can say a little bit weird.

00:23:01.440 Um, and I wanted to actually touch on, uh, one of the things you guys brought up earlier

00:23:04.960 was the, the affected, uh, uh, uh, local businesses.

00:23:08.580 Uh, now I can't speak to every single business that was in the town of Coots, but the, uh,

00:23:13.580 uh, motel hotel that was in the area, I believe was completely booked.

00:23:16.860 Uh, we even stayed, uh, there, me and, uh, at this motel for a day or two, I believe

00:23:22.660 completely booked to the entire time.

00:23:24.640 Uh, and as well, I believe there's a diner actually that a very small diner, very quaint.

00:23:29.600 It was like an Airbnb thing, uh, uh, great people that ran it as well.

00:23:32.680 Um, and I believe they were getting hassled, uh, all the time.

00:23:37.300 If not, I believe actually, while we were at the blockade, they were shut down by AHS

00:23:40.740 because of violating COVID regulations.

00:23:43.460 Yeah.

00:23:43.600 So it's kind of funny to think that that, uh, that shop would have been open.

00:23:48.120 It would have been packed every single day for guys looking to get a hot breakfast,

00:23:51.600 uh, looking to get those rooms.

00:23:53.060 I mean, the rooms I believe, uh, uh, continued on, but the government itself, even while the

00:23:57.760 blockade was occurring, was actively shutting down businesses in Coots, a very small town.

00:24:02.140 And I remember the duty-free, um, uh, there was a lot of things that, uh, even the protesters

00:24:07.160 that demonstrators weren't allowed to get because of the police barriers and such.

00:24:11.100 Um, and the, the duty-free location, I think for obvious reasons, you weren't able to shop

00:24:15.300 there to, to get some of the stuff that you needed, but there was the supplies that you

00:24:19.480 needed in that shop within AHSOT, uh, that nobody was allowed to use or access even in

00:24:24.640 this time of, uh, grievance.

00:24:26.360 Yeah.

00:24:26.480 And just before we let you go, because I see how we have our next guest coming on, we'll have

00:24:29.960 them in five minutes.

00:24:31.060 I want to take a look at clip number four, where, um, mayor of Coots, Alberta, Willett,

00:24:36.360 Mayor Willett, uh, speaks to his relationship, to a phone call he had with former premier of

00:24:42.100 Alberta, Jason Kenney.

00:24:43.160 Let's take a look at what he had to say, uh, about Kenney.

00:24:46.560 You also had a phone call with the premier?

00:24:49.260 I did.

00:24:49.700 And at no time, did you make requests for specific supports or assistance from the province?

00:24:58.400 I think we, uh, when I talked to the premier, we talked more in generalities.

00:25:03.740 Uh, as I said, uh, earlier, he was kind of caught in a pinch point between.

00:25:13.160 And, uh, darned if I do and darned if I don't, uh, we talked about that, but he talked about

00:25:23.620 the fact that, uh, he could only do so much because of the lack of, uh, surge capacity in 0.74

00:25:32.840 the hospitals.

00:25:33.560 Uh, he mentioned that he was going to be talking to governors in the northern states to see if

00:25:43.580 they would, uh, put pressure on, on that side, because even if we did get rid of the provincial

00:25:50.240 mandates, the federal mandates still sat there.

00:25:55.880 And that was the thing that triggered the whole deal in the first place.

00:26:00.300 So, uh, no, it, it was more a, uh, a generality thing.

00:26:05.960 I did not hit him up for any kind of.

00:26:11.980 Now, do you think, Celine, that had we had a different premier in Alberta, different than

00:26:18.740 Jason Kenney, we would still have, we will still have had all of these mandates in Alberta?

00:26:23.840 That I, my opinion is potentially, I, I don't know this, those mandates were pretty much

00:26:34.600 all over the world.

00:26:35.400 So I really can't answer that with any, I don't have confidence in that.

00:26:40.740 No, actually, I don't.

00:26:41.860 Unfortunately, the last two years that we've gone through, right?

00:26:44.380 Like who would have thought that premier Jason Kenney, I mean, I'm not a fan boy of long

00:26:48.360 time or a short time for that.

00:26:49.680 Yeah.

00:26:49.920 Yeah.

00:26:50.400 A premier Kenney, but who would have thought two and a half years ago that he would have

00:26:53.680 been the man he is today?

00:26:54.780 Yeah.

00:26:55.040 You know, who can say that about any politician?

00:26:56.560 Exactly.

00:26:57.140 Yeah.

00:26:57.720 One of the, the biggest, if not the biggest, uh, international phenomenon, uh, the, the

00:27:03.980 COVID, uh, narrative and pursuant actions by governments.

00:27:07.420 Yeah.

00:27:08.300 Yeah.

00:27:08.640 I don't know.

00:27:09.080 No, for sure.

00:27:10.080 Honestly, I'd really love to be a fly on the wall in terms of those backdoor conversations

00:27:14.840 that go on within government.

00:27:16.340 So, yeah.

00:27:17.560 Yeah.

00:27:17.900 But while, you know, the, the, the mandates that the people were protesting in Ottawa and

00:27:22.640 mandates that people were protesting in Windsor and even coups, as a matter of fact, were

00:27:26.340 all federal mandates in coups.

00:27:28.280 They were protesting the federal border mandates in Ottawa.

00:27:31.260 They were protesting the federal COVID-19 mandates, but we still saw in Ottawa people

00:27:36.060 carrying flags and signs regarding François Legault, the premier of Quebec.

00:27:41.780 And we saw some carrying flags and signs about Jason Kenney, premier of, then premier of

00:27:47.980 Alberta.

00:27:49.020 Um, and while they were there officially to protest the federal mandates, they were also

00:27:53.180 there, I feel, to protest the premiers, uh, Jason Kenney and François Legault.

00:27:58.320 Did you feel the same way when you were at coups?

00:28:01.160 Sorry, you.

00:28:02.560 That they were protesting the provincial government as well.

00:28:06.040 Of course, it goes, it goes without saying that anywhere that they set up these, these,

00:28:09.800 uh, these blockades, they, they were very aware of who was in charge, who had put the

00:28:13.960 mandates in play.

00:28:14.700 And that was a conversation that I, I heard and it would not be hard to guess was, was

00:28:19.080 there within, within those, those areas.

00:28:21.680 Yes.

00:28:22.300 Yeah.

00:28:23.340 You agree?

00:28:24.220 Yeah.

00:28:24.440 Oh, yeah.

00:28:24.840 No, I'll say the least.

00:28:25.780 Of course.

00:28:26.400 Premier Jason Kenney and the, the mandates that we saw in Alberta were a very large part

00:28:30.600 of why they were protesting.

00:28:31.400 I mean, yes, uh, I believe as Marco mentioned yesterday, it, or I don't know who mentioned

00:28:36.320 this, but, uh, uh, two weeks to slow the spread.

00:28:38.640 Right.

00:28:38.900 And then look at how we are now.

00:28:40.260 That's, that's the federal aspect of things.

00:28:42.160 Uh, and then you've got, uh, premier Jason Kenney, you know, it's going to be, uh, open

00:28:46.240 for summer.

00:28:46.760 We're not going to have a vaccine passport, but we're going to have a restrictions exemption

00:28:51.200 program.

00:28:51.740 That is just the same thing as a vaccine passport, except for the name.

00:28:55.980 Yeah.

00:28:56.300 And I think, uh, he, he kept on doing that.

00:28:58.740 Actually, I think, uh, I can't, it was there as well for that, uh, that groundbreaking answer

00:29:02.260 from premier Kenny.

00:29:03.460 Um, and it's just this repetition of, oh yeah, just, just, just hold on.

00:29:07.700 Just, I'm not going to, you know, do that.

00:29:09.200 Oh, you know, like this, how about that?

00:29:11.320 You know, this, this, uh, uh, struggle session, these politicians are doing, uh, with their

00:29:16.140 citizens in terms of pushing through mandates when they know that their citizens don't

00:29:19.180 want it.

00:29:19.440 Well, I think those are the longest two weeks we've ever seen just last week, even a few

00:29:23.300 days ago.

00:29:23.860 I think I saw an article saying that there was a university in Ontario that is reinstating mass

00:29:28.320 mandates for students attending classes in the lecture hall, which is absolutely ridiculous.

00:29:33.980 Anyways, thanks so much for coming on, Sid.

00:29:35.880 Uh, we'll move on to our next guest.

00:29:37.360 Before we get to our next guest, we will go to a quick ad break.

00:29:40.300 And when we come back, we'll have the great lawyer for Freedom Corp, Eva Chipiuk, who 0.93

00:29:45.740 you've been hearing a lot from in the past four weeks.

00:29:48.380 Stay tuned.

00:29:48.700 Freedom in 2022 is your right to disagree with me anytime on anything in your heart,

00:29:57.580 online, or in the public square.

00:29:59.540 Freedom in 2022 is also your right to live your life however you see fit without hurting

00:30:03.680 me or for that matter, being bothered by me.

00:30:06.420 But Freedom in 2022 is in very real danger under constant attack by Justin Trudeau through

00:30:11.780 his censorship bills, his attacks on gun rights, his attacks on farmers, and his attacks on

00:30:16.900 peaceful protesters.

00:30:18.080 These people have even tried to denormalize our flag.

00:30:21.160 At Rebel News, we're not afraid to have dangerous discussions that Justin Trudeau, the media and

00:30:25.760 big tech censors say we're not allowed to have.

00:30:28.700 And we want to have them with you at our upcoming Rebel Live events.

00:30:32.500 First in Toronto, November 19th, and again in Calgary, Saturday, November 26th.

00:30:37.620 I'll be there with dozens of other Rebels and Rebel-adjacent freethinkers, and I hope 0.90

00:30:42.640 that you'll join us.

00:30:43.840 Just go to rebelnewslive.com to get your tickets today, but do not sleep on this, because these

00:30:48.980 tickets are going fast.

00:30:50.500 See you soon.

00:30:51.100 My mug?

00:31:08.200 I know.

00:31:09.760 So is this hoodie I got on, and you could have it on too if you check out our special

00:31:14.900 website at rebelnewstore.com.

00:31:17.200 That's where you can see Freedom Focus hoodies that we have for you, beanies, cell phone cases,

00:31:22.940 you name it, all while supporting our journalism, where we fight to bring you the other side

00:31:28.200 of the story, as opposed to, you know, being forced by the Trudeau government to fund leftist

00:31:33.360 media out of your taxes.

00:31:35.400 The truth is, without you and your generosity, there is no rebel news.

00:31:40.680 So, again, if you like the reports that we bring you, and that we also fight for freedoms

00:31:46.640 in Canada, please consider doing some shopping, picking up some swag at rebelnewstore.com.

00:32:04.380 Maybe.

00:32:05.260 Definitely not.

00:32:06.400 Yep.

00:32:07.040 Chaka chaka chip.

00:32:08.260 That's him. 1.00

00:32:10.200 The world's still on fire. 0.99

00:32:11.980 Blame Alberta. 0.82

00:32:12.800 Blame.

00:32:13.360 Blame some more.

00:32:14.240 Now the world's in need.

00:32:15.400 Don't give him this.

00:32:16.460 Or this.

00:32:17.140 Take these.

00:32:18.020 Screw that.

00:32:18.820 Are we done?

00:32:19.560 No.

00:32:20.260 Finally.

00:32:20.820 He's gone.

00:32:21.760 Don't want you.

00:32:22.800 I want you.

00:32:23.420 But this, this is not good.

00:32:25.760 Don't worry.

00:32:26.720 We'll win.

00:32:27.740 Destroying Canada's most conservative province.

00:32:30.640 It's that easy.

00:32:37.780 Alright, folks.

00:32:38.880 We are back live on air with an interesting guest that has been refusing to do any media

00:32:45.080 interview since the beginning of the inquiry.

00:32:47.500 But today, he is a hockey coach.

00:32:49.880 He will give us his take on the Emergencies Act Inquiry.

00:32:53.300 I welcome to our studio, Freedom Convoy lawyer, Brendan Miller.

00:32:58.200 Brendan, how are you doing? 1.00

00:32:59.860 You pheasants are playing like garbage. 1.00

00:33:02.240 I'm sick and tired of this. 1.00

00:33:03.700 You're not keeping your sticks on the ice.

00:33:05.520 I want to see some hustle out there.

00:33:07.480 There's some free agents out right now.

00:33:09.400 Alright.

00:33:09.700 Rachel Gilmore.

00:33:10.640 Rex Murphy.

00:33:11.620 I could bring them in.

00:33:13.200 You're going to be riding the pine for the rest of the season, son.

00:33:15.860 Alright.

00:33:16.380 Get out there.

00:33:17.120 Keep your stick on the ice.

00:33:18.360 I want to see some hustle.

00:33:19.840 Alright.

00:33:20.080 So how many pucks do we need to put on the net side to win the game?

00:33:24.080 I want to see some journalism, son.

00:33:25.420 Some journalism.

00:33:26.820 Alright.

00:33:28.060 Everybody here wants to score more goals than the other side.

00:33:31.420 All lines should be firing.

00:33:32.820 I haven't seen any of you out there hustling.

00:33:35.760 So what transfers are you thinking of making?

00:33:37.340 Well, I'm going to trade you for Rachel Gilmore. 1.00

00:33:41.840 You know, she's on Twitter all the time.

00:33:43.740 I don't see your Twitter going.

00:33:45.540 She's got some serious tweet game. 1.00

00:33:47.040 Where's your tweet game?

00:33:48.080 I'm focused on the game as you taught me, coach.

00:33:50.520 Okay.

00:33:51.080 Well, keep your stick on the ice.

00:33:53.900 Alright, perfect.

00:33:54.380 Well, there you have it.

00:33:55.480 Freedom Convoy lawyer coach slash coach.

00:33:58.180 Hockey coach Brendan Miller for an exclusive interview.

00:34:01.940 I think Glenn McGregor is going to be upset.

00:34:03.680 Alright, we're going to have on guest.

00:34:05.900 Eva Cipiuk, for real this time.

00:34:08.780 Come on to talk about the emergency inquiry.

00:34:11.880 She is setting on right now.

00:34:14.000 And yeah, so Eva Cipiuk.

00:34:15.660 Eva, how are you doing today?

00:34:17.540 Pretty good, thanks.

00:34:18.820 I don't have any hockey analogies for you today.

00:34:21.100 So hopefully you got your fix of them today.

00:34:23.320 Definitely, yeah.

00:34:24.040 You know, Brendan once told us,

00:34:27.380 if we do an interview, he's going to talk about hockey.

00:34:30.580 I think he loves hockey more than representing Tamara Leach

00:34:34.500 and the other people in the inquiry.

00:34:36.180 In any regard, we have Eva Cipiuk.

00:34:38.080 Okay, I'm going to have to stop you.

00:34:39.200 I don't think that's true.

00:34:40.920 We can keep going now.

00:34:42.260 That's right.

00:34:42.820 You're right.

00:34:43.260 It's far from being true.

00:34:44.480 All right, we have you on.

00:34:45.800 So what were your general impressions from today?

00:34:48.760 Well, you know, we started with the Coutts mayor this morning.

00:34:52.340 And just to put it into perspective,

00:34:54.720 Coutts is a border town in Alberta, 250 people population.

00:35:01.100 So incredibly tiny village, actually, I should say.

00:35:04.940 And you could see the mayor breaking down a little bit today,

00:35:08.740 talking about what he went through.

00:35:11.700 There was a lot going on.

00:35:13.720 The town was divided, as we heard.

00:35:16.160 And you could see the hurt and the harm that he experienced.

00:35:22.580 And at the end, it was either Brendan Miller's questions

00:35:25.840 or the commissioner, I can't recall now, just asking.

00:35:28.960 I think it was Brendan's asking,

00:35:30.800 what is your impression of your town's impression

00:35:33.800 of the federal government?

00:35:35.420 And he said, we think Justin Trudeau hates us.

00:35:40.000 And, you know, you just got like your heart sinks

00:35:42.040 when you hear something like this.

00:35:43.660 You got good Canadians, hardworking Canadians

00:35:47.580 feeling like the federal government

00:35:49.640 is just not there for them.

00:35:51.260 And that is really what we experienced here in Ottawa.

00:35:55.380 That's really the reason that people stood up

00:35:57.700 and started protesting.

00:35:59.020 And he said he had nothing against peaceful, lawful protests,

00:36:02.540 which I think we all believe

00:36:04.400 that that's the correct way to protest.

00:36:07.980 Everything just kind of became more difficult

00:36:11.400 after two years of harsh realities

00:36:14.180 and after not being heard for so long.

00:36:17.600 I don't, and, you know, even the commissioner asked,

00:36:20.380 did they move to a legal protest after

00:36:22.460 when they were told to leave?

00:36:24.340 And they did.

00:36:25.120 And they continued to protest for two or three weeks later.

00:36:29.320 So nobody was intending to be protesting illegally.

00:36:32.720 I think it was, again, mismanagement

00:36:34.740 and late to the game police responses,

00:36:38.620 as we saw, obviously, in Ottawa.

00:36:40.400 And it's just heartbreaking.

00:36:43.620 And just to make it clear,

00:36:44.840 the protests and coups had nothing to do

00:36:48.120 in terms of the organizational teams

00:36:49.880 with the protests in Ottawa, correct?

00:36:52.040 Yes.

00:36:52.520 And again, I think I called you on this before.

00:36:55.740 To use the word organized

00:36:57.060 for even what happened in Ottawa,

00:36:58.880 I have a very hard time using it

00:37:01.020 because nothing was organized

00:37:03.040 about anything that was happening.

00:37:04.840 It was incredibly grassroots.

00:37:06.600 It was incredibly fast moving.

00:37:08.660 Things were just happening as they were going.

00:37:11.660 There was an issue.

00:37:12.420 You dealt with it.

00:37:13.260 It's not, there was no long-term strategy planning

00:37:15.600 or logistical planning.

00:37:17.660 So 100%, there was no connection

00:37:20.680 with anybody that was in Ottawa.

00:37:23.500 No, that's important to remember.

00:37:25.760 I think sometimes people associate

00:37:27.840 all the freedom protests that took place in Ottawa

00:37:29.880 to the Freedom Convoy that took place.

00:37:32.740 Sorry, all the protests

00:37:34.320 that are more freedom-oriented across the country

00:37:37.500 to the protests that took place in Ottawa,

00:37:39.840 the Freedom Convoy.

00:37:40.620 Yeah, as you know, just an organic movement

00:37:44.860 as a movement that they felt compelled

00:37:48.280 to replicate in their own town.

00:37:50.800 They couldn't make it to Ottawa, possibly.

00:37:53.260 They were close to Cootes or Windsor or whatever.

00:37:56.380 And it sparked across the world.

00:37:58.800 I think it was 26 or something convoys around the world.

00:38:02.860 So yeah, nothing at all organized about it,

00:38:06.960 but it was just the need to be heard.

00:38:09.380 And that was a venue, a way of making themselves heard.

00:38:13.140 Yeah, I think the only resemblance,

00:38:16.280 the only thing that is absolutely the same thing

00:38:18.900 is the purpose of the people being there.

00:38:20.700 The purpose, which was to fight federal COVID-19 mandates.

00:38:25.540 All right, Brendan Miller just came on recently.

00:38:27.420 So let's take a look at clip number five

00:38:28.860 when we see Brendan Miller cross-examining

00:38:31.420 the mayor of Cootes, Alberta, Mayor Willis.

00:38:34.740 Let's take a look at that.

00:38:36.960 What are the interactions you have with your residents

00:38:40.980 with respect to their support or lack of support

00:38:43.860 for the federal government as it currently is composed?

00:38:51.380 Well, I'll quote my CAO, Trudeau hates us.

00:38:55.900 And that's basically, you could talk to anybody there.

00:39:01.120 There's a great dislike for the federal government

00:39:05.080 on a high percentage.

00:39:08.400 And what is these dislikes?

00:39:10.280 What are they about?

00:39:11.160 What are these people's grievances

00:39:12.460 in your residence and in that area?

00:39:16.020 Smarter minds than me have tried to figure it out.

00:39:18.240 I really don't understand the great dislike

00:39:21.420 for the federal government.

00:39:22.900 This was the cross-examination by Brendan Miller

00:39:28.060 of Mayor Willis.

00:39:30.800 He doesn't understand the great dislike

00:39:33.040 that the protesters had for the federal government.

00:39:35.460 How can you not understand?

00:39:38.100 Well, I think it's always a little bit...

00:39:41.420 It's not always what you see at face value

00:39:44.400 that determines what a person says.

00:39:46.880 As we've seen, there's lots of contrasting views

00:39:49.140 and testimonies that have come out.

00:39:50.820 And again, I think that in his closing statement,

00:39:54.600 when he said that he did support them,

00:39:56.280 I think he absolutely meant it.

00:39:58.320 And I mean, personally speaking,

00:40:00.560 if I was the mayor of some place

00:40:02.040 and I did or didn't understand certain pressures

00:40:04.520 that I was under,

00:40:05.520 would I be very willing to maybe say

00:40:08.560 that the government isn't so great after all?

00:40:11.480 Especially when it's so outspoken.

00:40:13.180 I think the only politician right now

00:40:14.980 that is being that outspoken actually

00:40:17.340 is Danielle Smith with her apology

00:40:19.020 to all the people that face prosecution

00:40:21.620 during the COVID restrictions and mandates.

00:40:24.140 So I agree that it's a little bit...

00:40:27.220 It's hard to hear that.

00:40:28.240 And then it's hard to hear when he says

00:40:29.580 that he does indeed support the protesters.

00:40:32.200 But again, I think that it just...

00:40:33.560 There's so much more that goes on behind doors

00:40:35.920 that we're not aware of.

00:40:37.160 Well, one thing that I noticed a disconnect on this

00:40:40.040 is that...

00:40:41.220 And again, it was with Brendan Miller's cross-examination

00:40:43.820 in a RCMP document that he put to the mayor.

00:40:46.760 It said that the RCMP was there to engage

00:40:49.580 with people, protesters.

00:40:51.680 And then he asked him if he experienced that,

00:40:54.420 if he saw it, and the answer was no.

00:40:56.740 And what did the mayor do?

00:40:58.360 That was the next question again from Brendan Miller.

00:41:01.020 Did you go out and talk to these people?

00:41:03.040 Did you go out and talk to the protesters?

00:41:04.860 And the answer was yes.

00:41:06.400 So the disconnect, I think, is talking to constituents.

00:41:10.540 I think I talked about this early on

00:41:12.400 when I was on the show,

00:41:13.480 is that MPs and our elected officials

00:41:16.300 have really forgotten what their purpose is

00:41:19.660 and that they're meant to speak to people.

00:41:22.540 And I, again, love that William goes out

00:41:24.720 and talks to the MPs

00:41:26.220 and talks to the MPs

00:41:29.420 and asks them questions

00:41:30.840 and puts them on the...

00:41:31.800 They don't respond.

00:41:32.800 I know.

00:41:33.260 And to me, it's incredibly wrong.

00:41:36.620 You should start reading to them

00:41:37.900 and their roles and responsibilities.

00:41:40.020 That's an idea.

00:41:40.620 What they are doing,

00:41:41.900 what their role is as an MP,

00:41:44.000 is to talk to constituents,

00:41:46.080 no matter what...

00:41:46.660 And it says right there,

00:41:47.960 no matter what your views are.

00:41:50.180 Well, you know what's interesting

00:41:51.020 is that recently in the House of Commons,

00:41:53.340 you know, the liberals try to put pressure,

00:41:55.280 try to take aim at Pierre Poitier

00:41:56.620 for not answering media questions.

00:41:58.280 They said that...

00:41:59.140 That's rich. 1.00

00:42:00.020 That's the most unbelievably idiotic 1.00

00:42:02.000 thing I've ever heard 1.00

00:42:03.180 because of the irony behind it.

00:42:04.760 They said that since Pierre Poitier

00:42:06.860 didn't take any mainstream media question,

00:42:09.340 he should pay back his salary.

00:42:11.380 I mean...

00:42:12.060 To his constituents.

00:42:13.200 They haven't been answering a question

00:42:14.460 for seven years.

00:42:15.620 Well, and I did hear a little bit

00:42:17.080 about that exchange today.

00:42:18.960 And what I did hear Pierre Poitier say

00:42:21.260 is that I think we're a bit too obsessed,

00:42:23.840 is the word he used,

00:42:24.900 with what's going on in Ottawa.

00:42:26.220 And I 100% agree with him.

00:42:28.540 And again, this is the disconnect.

00:42:30.540 Nobody is talking to people

00:42:32.060 outside of Ottawa.

00:42:33.500 It's very insular here.

00:42:35.620 You could feel it when you're here.

00:42:37.060 It's a bubble in Ottawa.

00:42:38.940 And you could hear the frustration

00:42:40.500 of this poor mayor

00:42:42.880 of a small, tiny town village in Alberta

00:42:46.520 that just feels that nobody's listening.

00:42:49.160 His constituents feel

00:42:50.540 that they're not being heard.

00:42:52.520 And what we saw

00:42:54.060 from the federal government

00:42:55.360 in their questions to the protesters,

00:42:57.480 you kept hearing them ask,

00:42:59.680 you don't control these people.

00:43:01.260 Did you control?

00:43:01.980 It was about control.

00:43:03.500 The question constantly

00:43:05.700 surrounded control

00:43:07.200 rather than what they were doing

00:43:10.440 is they were listening.

00:43:11.660 They were there to hear

00:43:13.740 what protesters came to Ottawa for.

00:43:16.280 And again, that's a huge disconnect.

00:43:18.160 I find elected officials

00:43:20.060 are not even sure what they're doing

00:43:23.300 if they're not talking to constituents.

00:43:25.140 Really, though.

00:43:26.000 Yeah, I absolutely agree with you.

00:43:27.680 Like, what else?

00:43:28.520 It just, you need to be able

00:43:30.800 to have that perspective

00:43:32.360 from the people

00:43:33.200 that you're supposed,

00:43:35.140 not in charge of.

00:43:37.260 You're there to provide them with services.

00:43:39.220 You're there to take care of them.

00:43:41.360 And now we have this constant history

00:43:44.980 where we can look by recent history,

00:43:47.260 really,

00:43:47.780 where we see that it's the total opposite.

00:43:50.160 And again,

00:43:50.760 they're not even answering questions.

00:43:52.880 No, they're not answering questions.

00:43:53.660 The conservative MPs and MLAs

00:43:55.100 will answer our questions,

00:43:56.240 but it's specifically more so

00:43:57.960 the Liberals and some of the NDPs.

00:44:00.020 Yeah, well, so far,

00:44:00.680 the experience that I received,

00:44:02.100 even NDP MPs answered my question.

00:44:03.720 I know, you know,

00:44:04.460 Alistair McGregor,

00:44:05.260 one of my first interviews

00:44:06.060 that I did with an NDP MP,

00:44:07.760 Alistair McGregor spoke to me

00:44:08.920 for two minutes and a half

00:44:10.260 about why he thinks

00:44:11.780 it's okay to ban guns in Canada

00:44:13.400 like the NDP wants it to do.

00:44:16.060 And we fundamentally disagree.

00:44:17.860 I'm ready to bet on nearly everything,

00:44:20.600 but he still took the time to speak to me.

00:44:23.800 I thought his questions were wrong,

00:44:25.540 but I thought his questions,

00:44:26.880 he actually took the time

00:44:27.680 to answer my question,

00:44:28.680 which I think were great.

00:44:29.800 And even the Liberals

00:44:30.760 who we elected to power

00:44:33.200 aren't able to do that.

00:44:35.480 And I fully agree with what she said.

00:44:37.720 So just to go, yeah.

00:44:39.980 Well, I was just going to give you

00:44:41.260 a little update of what happened

00:44:42.840 because I think you guys

00:44:43.640 were already in session here live.

00:44:46.460 Brendan Miller had a chance

00:44:47.520 to cross-examine this assistant,

00:44:49.220 I think, assistant deputy

00:44:50.700 for the province

00:44:52.660 for the Minister of Transportation.

00:44:55.660 And so what Brendan Miller took

00:44:57.660 or cross-examined him on

00:44:59.320 was a federal act

00:45:00.540 and just now slips my mind.

00:45:03.480 But basically there is,

00:45:04.760 it was an act that was available

00:45:06.340 to the federal government

00:45:07.680 for where the bridge was

00:45:10.260 and any blockades on the bridge.

00:45:13.140 All they had to do was enact it.

00:45:14.680 You could find people.

00:45:18.260 And so he just put it to them,

00:45:20.720 you know, was this act available?

00:45:22.940 Of course, this is the provincial

00:45:24.360 Minister of Transportation.

00:45:26.480 But it's just another tool

00:45:28.520 the federal government

00:45:29.940 had in their toolbox.

00:45:31.480 Yes.

00:45:31.760 And either they didn't know about it,

00:45:34.240 which is possible.

00:45:35.100 There are a lot of acts.

00:45:36.040 But when you've got a blockade

00:45:37.620 on a bridge that you're suggesting

00:45:39.280 is causing massive economic damage,

00:45:42.560 you might want to look

00:45:43.560 through the acts

00:45:44.200 and see whether or not

00:45:45.220 something's available to you

00:45:46.520 before you go and enact

00:45:47.660 something that's meant to be used

00:45:50.080 in only extreme circumstances.

00:45:52.620 Well, I think it's something similar

00:45:53.620 to what you're talking about.

00:45:54.600 That might be what you're talking about

00:45:56.280 is when Ian Freeman

00:45:58.100 from the Ministry of Transportation

00:45:59.880 of Ontario,

00:46:00.960 the Ministry of Transportation

00:46:02.040 of Ontario,

00:46:02.720 spoke to the fact

00:46:04.160 that warning letters

00:46:05.260 could have been sent

00:46:06.260 to the protesters

00:46:07.240 prior to the provincial emergency

00:46:09.380 being declared.

00:46:10.920 And he testified under oath

00:46:13.060 that the police

00:46:13.680 never told them to do so.

00:46:15.440 That's clip number nine.

00:46:16.540 If we could take a look

00:46:17.300 at exactly what Ian Freeman,

00:46:20.000 once again,

00:46:20.280 from the Ministry of Transportation

00:46:21.520 of Ontario had to say it's that.

00:46:27.240 Sure.

00:46:27.900 So basically, yeah,

00:46:28.720 is that the one

00:46:29.380 that you're talking about

00:46:30.120 or is it a different?

00:46:30.620 No, this is a different act.

00:46:31.760 So it was,

00:46:32.620 I'm going to pull it up now.

00:46:34.260 So we actually have it

00:46:35.200 and it was a federal act

00:46:36.600 called

00:46:40.540 the International Bridges

00:46:43.620 and Tunnels Act.

00:46:44.780 So right in there,

00:46:45.840 there's fines,

00:46:46.720 there's enforcement,

00:46:47.580 clauses available

00:46:49.720 to the federal government

00:46:51.040 to use where they see

00:46:52.020 that there is an issue

00:46:53.660 on a bridge.

00:46:54.740 Yeah, official opinion

00:46:55.640 is that if that's your job

00:46:57.240 to look after

00:46:58.220 like those bridges,

00:46:59.380 that jurisdiction

00:47:00.000 to make sure

00:47:00.720 that you are utilizing

00:47:01.720 every single act

00:47:03.840 measure that you can take

00:47:05.780 before the Emergencies Act

00:47:08.040 and you haven't done that,

00:47:09.500 that's a huge form

00:47:11.020 of incompetency

00:47:11.920 that I can't even

00:47:12.860 go into depth

00:47:14.020 to tell you

00:47:14.560 is unacceptable

00:47:15.220 to be at that level

00:47:16.420 and to still just

00:47:17.360 be in that ignorance. 0.67

00:47:19.040 Yeah, of course.

00:47:19.780 Let's take a look

00:47:20.300 at what exactly

00:47:21.020 Freeman said

00:47:21.680 in regards to letters.

00:47:22.580 I see later

00:47:23.540 that there were

00:47:25.260 warning letters issued

00:47:26.620 after the provincial

00:47:29.480 state of emergency

00:47:30.560 was declared

00:47:32.020 of potential CVOR consequences

00:47:35.180 under that law.

00:47:36.860 Could that have been done

00:47:38.600 prior to the invocation

00:47:40.020 of the provincial emergency

00:47:41.800 to send warning letters

00:47:43.280 about known potential violations?

00:47:49.020 I think technically anything

00:47:55.060 is you could send

00:47:56.380 a warning letter

00:47:56.980 to do something like that.

00:47:59.740 We were never asked

00:48:01.960 by police to do it

00:48:02.940 and it was a police-led response

00:48:04.240 so I would clarify that first.

00:48:07.520 But I would also say

00:48:09.420 I think we would be

00:48:10.340 of the opinion

00:48:11.000 that sending warning letters

00:48:13.220 for something

00:48:13.760 that we know

00:48:15.260 we wouldn't deploy

00:48:16.300 wouldn't be

00:48:18.080 the right thing to do.

00:48:20.880 So you're saying

00:48:21.600 that they had the option

00:48:22.560 of sending warning letters

00:48:24.040 and they also had the options,

00:48:26.040 the option of invoking

00:48:27.060 the act

00:48:27.540 that you're talking about.

00:48:28.960 So they had two options

00:48:30.240 before invoking

00:48:30.920 the provincial emergency

00:48:31.800 and hence

00:48:32.280 the federal emergency.

00:48:33.560 Yeah, so just to clarify,

00:48:34.960 that was an Ontario response

00:48:36.460 and this was a federal act

00:48:37.660 that was available.

00:48:38.460 So he did on the stand

00:48:40.020 say, you know,

00:48:40.560 I'm not as familiar

00:48:41.520 but that sounds reasonable.

00:48:43.800 But, you know, again,

00:48:45.160 I'm going back

00:48:45.840 to what I was talking

00:48:46.620 about with elected officials.

00:48:47.820 Same thing with the police.

00:48:49.180 There seems to be

00:48:50.100 a disconnect

00:48:50.700 about with police.

00:48:51.960 The discussion,

00:48:52.680 like last week

00:48:53.780 we heard a lot about it

00:48:55.000 that none of the protesters

00:48:56.580 here in Ottawa

00:48:57.420 were actually directed

00:48:58.780 or ordered to leave the city.

00:49:00.880 There was constant dialogue

00:49:02.240 every day about what,

00:49:04.140 you know,

00:49:04.460 how can we minimize it

00:49:05.820 and where people should park.

00:49:07.340 But not once

00:49:08.500 and then there was

00:49:09.460 some kind of piece of paper

00:49:10.660 thrown around the city

00:49:11.960 and they assumed

00:49:14.360 I think people would

00:49:15.600 would understand

00:49:16.840 what that meant.

00:49:18.680 But like he said,

00:49:20.960 you could put in

00:49:21.740 a warning letter

00:49:22.360 but why can't people

00:49:23.340 have a dialogue?

00:49:24.400 What's happened

00:49:25.220 to having a discussion

00:49:26.300 with people?

00:49:27.360 Like the police

00:49:28.160 can come talk

00:49:29.180 to these people

00:49:30.420 and say,

00:49:30.900 look, you're causing

00:49:31.560 a problem

00:49:32.020 and again,

00:49:32.560 going back to Coots

00:49:33.620 when they were told

00:49:34.980 they have to leave

00:49:35.740 this area

00:49:36.400 because it's,

00:49:37.460 you know,

00:49:37.940 I guess illegal

00:49:38.700 and it's blocking things

00:49:40.080 I'm not familiar

00:49:40.920 with that protest.

00:49:42.300 Yeah.

00:49:42.800 They gave them

00:49:43.680 a plot of land

00:49:44.940 that they could

00:49:45.500 protest legally.

00:49:47.580 They had a dialogue.

00:49:49.060 Exactly.

00:49:49.420 And then they resolved it.

00:49:51.120 And you know,

00:49:51.540 I think how you do one thing

00:49:52.640 is how you do all things.

00:49:53.800 So there's not one,

00:49:55.100 there's not one instance

00:49:56.520 that I can speak on

00:49:57.600 where I've,

00:49:58.460 I've witnessed conflict

00:49:59.800 between any one person

00:50:01.060 or thing

00:50:01.540 where the only way

00:50:03.300 to resolve it

00:50:04.120 wasn't to open up

00:50:05.440 a stream of dialogue.

00:50:06.620 I mean,

00:50:07.240 to ignore somebody,

00:50:08.780 somebody's being

00:50:09.740 the people

00:50:10.260 that are in outcry

00:50:11.880 trying to communicate

00:50:12.880 a message

00:50:13.500 over the heartbreak,

00:50:15.020 the loss

00:50:15.500 and all of the things

00:50:16.200 that they went through

00:50:16.780 over the past two years

00:50:17.860 and you ignore them,

00:50:19.540 that pressure starts to build

00:50:21.240 and it builds

00:50:22.500 and it builds

00:50:23.280 until the top

00:50:24.640 just pops off.

00:50:25.660 And that's exactly

00:50:26.380 what we saw.

00:50:27.060 People were fed up.

00:50:28.460 No one is listening.

00:50:29.380 No one is willing

00:50:30.160 to actually start

00:50:31.420 that dialogue,

00:50:32.500 to open up

00:50:33.040 that stream of dialogue

00:50:33.840 that is going to be

00:50:34.600 very important

00:50:35.400 for not just,

00:50:37.020 you know,

00:50:37.320 the different provinces

00:50:38.160 to heal based

00:50:38.960 on what was going on,

00:50:39.860 but Canada as a whole

00:50:41.120 and us not even speaking

00:50:42.600 towards the rest of the world

00:50:43.740 that also experienced

00:50:44.820 that similar outcry.

00:50:46.260 Yeah,

00:50:46.360 I think that one of the people

00:50:47.200 that says best

00:50:47.920 is Keith Wilson.

00:50:48.900 You know,

00:50:49.100 every time he comes on,

00:50:50.200 he talks about

00:50:50.700 the Canadian way,

00:50:52.660 one quote,

00:50:53.300 the Canadian way

00:50:53.920 to deal with a protest,

00:50:54.920 the Canadian way

00:50:56.200 to deal with a situation,

00:50:59.000 the way to deal

00:51:00.240 with a disagreement

00:51:01.000 is not to go ahead

00:51:02.300 and invoke

00:51:02.600 the New Yorker option,

00:51:03.560 not to go ahead

00:51:04.160 and invoke

00:51:04.720 a never seen before

00:51:06.420 anti-terrorism law

00:51:07.500 on peaceful protesters

00:51:09.260 who are protesting

00:51:10.160 the COVID-19 mandates.

00:51:11.540 It's to have a dialogue

00:51:12.640 and none of the levels

00:51:14.340 of government

00:51:14.840 we're willing to have.

00:51:15.580 And we're seeing

00:51:15.980 that again right now.

00:51:16.780 Yeah.

00:51:17.080 Well,

00:51:17.420 not only Keith Wilson

00:51:18.380 said it,

00:51:18.860 but the CSIS document

00:51:19.980 said it.

00:51:20.500 I think that came up

00:51:21.380 on Monday.

00:51:22.040 They said,

00:51:22.460 don't do this.

00:51:23.600 It's going to cause

00:51:24.620 more extremist views.

00:51:27.300 Yeah.

00:51:27.560 It's going to cause

00:51:28.500 more violence

00:51:29.280 because people believe

00:51:30.520 the system is broken

00:51:31.580 and that's why

00:51:32.320 they're here.

00:51:32.760 You're confirming

00:51:33.300 their views.

00:51:34.580 Mayday, mayday,

00:51:35.520 whatever will we do

00:51:36.660 for telling them

00:51:37.420 exactly what they needed

00:51:38.440 not to do

00:51:39.100 and then still

00:51:40.180 having it done.

00:51:41.140 I think that's

00:51:41.580 a great segue.

00:51:42.520 Thank you, Eva,

00:51:43.240 to my next point,

00:51:44.580 CSIS.

00:51:45.560 Yes.

00:51:45.980 Next week,

00:51:46.700 we will be hearing

00:51:47.760 CSIS testify

00:51:48.940 at the Emergencies Act

00:51:50.800 inquiry.

00:51:51.460 What is important

00:51:52.140 with CSIS testifying?

00:51:53.340 Are they going to cut?

00:51:55.620 No, I'm just kidding.

00:51:58.140 So just to let you know,

00:51:59.500 too,

00:51:59.640 there's been a little bit

00:52:00.760 of dialogue online

00:52:02.820 about that there was

00:52:05.100 a decision made

00:52:06.220 by the commissioner.

00:52:07.380 Yeah, the blackout.

00:52:08.140 Yeah, did you,

00:52:08.800 are you familiar

00:52:10.040 with it?

00:52:10.440 Well, we spoke about it

00:52:11.260 in a past life,

00:52:13.220 but I think it would be

00:52:13.760 a good idea

00:52:14.140 if you could touch

00:52:14.720 on it again

00:52:15.240 just for our viewers

00:52:16.240 who are joining us now.

00:52:17.000 So what the commissioner

00:52:17.800 did in that case

00:52:18.980 is the federal government

00:52:20.320 said that it needed

00:52:21.180 to keep things hidden

00:52:22.440 from the public

00:52:23.240 because of national security

00:52:24.740 and what the commissioner

00:52:25.840 did, decided

00:52:27.180 is he's going

00:52:27.900 to review them

00:52:28.700 initially on his own

00:52:30.400 with the federal government

00:52:31.960 and anyone that has

00:52:32.980 security clearance.

00:52:34.080 He's going to review

00:52:35.020 whether or not

00:52:35.860 in his view

00:52:36.800 that information

00:52:37.940 could be made public,

00:52:38.980 whether he could

00:52:39.760 summarize the information

00:52:41.100 or all of it

00:52:41.880 and needs to remain hidden.

00:52:43.160 But, you know,

00:52:44.740 we've seen a lot

00:52:45.620 of information so far.

00:52:47.540 You see redacted

00:52:48.880 parts of documents,

00:52:50.900 but I don't,

00:52:52.320 I think that we have

00:52:53.300 quite a bit

00:52:53.900 of information already.

00:52:56.100 There is,

00:52:56.880 it's going to get

00:52:57.500 quite interesting,

00:52:58.500 quite spicy next week,

00:52:59.940 I think.

00:53:00.760 With CSIS,

00:53:01.580 we have also

00:53:03.060 the RCMP coming in.

00:53:05.000 So Brenda Lucky 1.00

00:53:06.180 will be testifying

00:53:07.020 next week, right?

00:53:07.700 At some point.

00:53:08.620 I don't know

00:53:09.000 if it's next week,

00:53:09.920 but she's on the list.

00:53:12.080 Yeah.

00:53:12.720 So just for everyone

00:53:13.880 at home right now,

00:53:15.620 a quick,

00:53:16.200 quick, 0.77

00:53:16.660 super quick game

00:53:17.300 for you.

00:53:18.060 Write in the chat

00:53:18.740 what you think

00:53:19.560 C-S-I-S. 1.00

00:53:21.260 What does CSIS mean?

00:53:22.380 What are,

00:53:22.880 what is the

00:53:23.520 abbreviation?

00:53:24.440 What are the letters?

00:53:25.280 What do the letters mean?

00:53:26.460 Write in the chat

00:53:27.060 because I think

00:53:27.640 a lot of people

00:53:28.100 get it wrong,

00:53:28.620 but what is CSIS, Eva?

00:53:30.520 I know I have a video

00:53:31.720 coming out soon

00:53:32.400 on Rebel News

00:53:33.100 about what is CSIS

00:53:34.500 that you can all understand

00:53:35.560 what we can expect

00:53:36.860 for next week's testimony.

00:53:37.940 What exactly is CSIS?

00:53:39.020 But what is CSIS?

00:53:41.140 I'm no CSIS expert.

00:53:43.620 From my understanding

00:53:45.260 of what it is,

00:53:46.560 it's the Canadian

00:53:47.740 Intelligence Agency.

00:53:49.640 Yeah.

00:53:50.060 Not that acronym,

00:53:51.860 obviously.

00:53:52.540 So we've heard

00:53:53.480 from OPP

00:53:54.300 and their intelligence,

00:53:55.540 and that's only

00:53:56.460 on a provincial level.

00:53:57.900 Intelligence.

00:53:58.960 No, OPP,

00:54:00.060 I give them

00:54:00.840 a lot of credit.

00:54:01.920 They did excellent.

00:54:03.360 OPP superintendent,

00:54:05.220 Pat Morris,

00:54:06.300 the top intelligence agent.

00:54:09.420 Yeah.

00:54:09.700 Excellent testimony

00:54:10.980 and really professional

00:54:12.420 organization.

00:54:13.540 We'll see whether,

00:54:15.280 how CSIS delivers

00:54:18.880 when they come in,

00:54:20.080 but it's basically

00:54:20.840 on a national scale.

00:54:22.900 Yeah.

00:54:23.180 The difference as well

00:54:24.260 is they don't have

00:54:25.140 enforcement arms,

00:54:26.420 so they just carry on

00:54:28.740 the intelligence

00:54:29.480 and gather information,

00:54:30.960 but they don't do enforcement.

00:54:32.420 So once they gather

00:54:33.260 information,

00:54:34.480 intelligence,

00:54:34.980 then they have to coordinate

00:54:36.560 with the RCMP,

00:54:37.920 for example,

00:54:38.620 OPP,

00:54:39.280 or any local

00:54:40.080 police authorities.

00:54:41.740 Yeah.

00:54:42.040 And just for everyone

00:54:42.860 who actually did the game

00:54:43.920 and thought about it,

00:54:44.860 CSIS means the Canadian

00:54:46.040 Security Intelligence Services,

00:54:47.920 but that's what

00:54:48.340 the acronym means.

00:54:50.400 I think that CSIS,

00:54:51.760 where I really saw

00:54:52.260 some evidence come out

00:54:53.240 in the past weeks

00:54:54.180 that were very revealing

00:54:56.080 and very relevant

00:54:56.940 to whether or not

00:54:57.700 the emergency act

00:54:58.300 had to be invoked,

00:54:59.400 and I guess that we can expect

00:55:00.800 more of that next week

00:55:01.660 when they actually testify.

00:55:02.780 I expect so.

00:55:04.080 Yeah.

00:55:04.300 Well,

00:55:04.860 I hope we're going

00:55:05.340 to be able to see that.

00:55:07.800 All right.

00:55:08.260 Just to end it off

00:55:09.580 with our favorite

00:55:11.700 prime minister ever,

00:55:13.200 Justin Trudeau.

00:55:14.300 Take a look at a clip,

00:55:15.520 one of the two clips

00:55:16.300 that I sent earlier,

00:55:17.560 what Justin Trudeau

00:55:19.280 had to say

00:55:19.980 next week,

00:55:21.400 last week.

00:55:22.180 saw it.

00:55:22.520 Mayor Doug Ford said

00:55:26.940 that if you want

00:55:27.540 to do something

00:55:28.180 about the preemptive use

00:55:29.360 of the notwithstanding clause,

00:55:31.000 you need to sit down

00:55:31.900 with the premiers

00:55:32.540 and talk about

00:55:33.320 reopening the constitution.

00:55:35.240 Even though Ford

00:55:35.960 has decided to repeal

00:55:37.040 his use of it

00:55:37.700 to deal with the union

00:55:38.440 of public employees,

00:55:39.700 would you be open

00:55:40.440 to doing that

00:55:41.260 to get ready

00:55:41.840 for the next time?

00:55:42.720 Canadians are facing

00:55:46.440 challenges

00:55:47.320 around the rising

00:55:48.220 costs of living.

00:55:49.800 People are worried

00:55:51.220 about climate change.

00:55:53.980 People want to know

00:55:55.120 that there are going

00:55:55.620 to be good jobs

00:55:56.380 for them now

00:55:57.800 and into the future.

00:55:58.780 People want to know

00:55:59.640 that we're preparing

00:56:02.600 for possible future pandemics.

00:56:06.600 these are the things

00:56:08.020 that are top of mind

00:56:09.040 for Canadians,

00:56:10.580 not reopening

00:56:11.580 the constitution.

00:56:13.820 Our focus is on

00:56:14.780 being there

00:56:15.420 to support Canadians now. 0.95

00:56:19.660 Absolute lunacy. 0.86

00:56:21.440 So,

00:56:22.400 Celine,

00:56:23.720 well,

00:56:24.980 we heard

00:56:26.300 that's how he speaks.

00:56:27.620 He speaks every second.

00:56:29.740 Yeah,

00:56:30.000 this former

00:56:31.120 blackface prime minister.

00:56:33.180 No,

00:56:33.460 I don't know

00:56:33.760 if you heard his comment.

00:56:35.060 I'm not sure

00:56:35.860 if it was you

00:56:36.360 it was here

00:56:36.720 in the election

00:56:37.100 when we talk about it.

00:56:38.520 But the federal

00:56:39.840 solution

00:56:40.960 to dealing

00:56:42.020 with inflation

00:56:42.740 is to tell families

00:56:44.280 to get rid

00:56:44.960 of their

00:56:45.380 Disney Plus subscription.

00:56:47.720 Yeah,

00:56:47.980 I thought you were

00:56:48.780 going to say

00:56:49.160 to get vaccinated.

00:56:50.400 That's how it started.

00:56:51.480 I've heard that

00:56:52.020 so many times.

00:56:53.040 It's a solution

00:56:53.980 for everything

00:56:54.700 these days.

00:56:55.720 Yeah,

00:56:55.940 it is getting vaccinated.

00:56:57.800 But,

00:56:58.160 you know,

00:56:58.300 he talks about

00:56:58.880 other pandemics.

00:57:00.180 Yeah.

00:57:00.660 And he said

00:57:02.020 that we need

00:57:02.460 to get ready

00:57:03.160 to deal

00:57:03.640 with other pandemics.

00:57:04.600 I'm wondering

00:57:04.860 how many lockdowns,

00:57:05.840 how many two weeks

00:57:06.700 we're going to have

00:57:07.640 during other pandemics.

00:57:10.280 I have,

00:57:11.400 I don't know

00:57:13.080 what was done

00:57:15.080 correctly

00:57:15.800 by all levels

00:57:17.020 of government.

00:57:17.620 so I have little faith

00:57:19.440 that they're prepared

00:57:20.860 for another

00:57:21.940 pandemic situation.

00:57:23.580 But not only

00:57:24.220 pandemic,

00:57:24.820 climate change,

00:57:25.580 guys.

00:57:26.520 Climate change

00:57:26.940 is a huge issue

00:57:27.980 that Justin Trudeau

00:57:28.800 spoke to.

00:57:30.780 Like,

00:57:32.260 everyone,

00:57:33.060 everyone watching this,

00:57:34.400 right?

00:57:34.700 Like,

00:57:35.240 you,

00:57:35.540 you heard that,

00:57:36.720 you know,

00:57:37.060 what,

00:57:37.620 what do you think

00:57:38.580 about the climate change,

00:57:40.480 alleged climate change,

00:57:42.180 pandemic,

00:57:42.860 drop it in the comments

00:57:43.740 right now,

00:57:44.220 because I'm curious

00:57:45.440 and I will,

00:57:46.780 William will for sure 0.58

00:57:47.680 read your comments

00:57:48.380 100%,

00:57:49.400 but I have no faith

00:57:51.940 that if anything

00:57:52.920 like that ever happens

00:57:54.200 that it will be

00:57:55.540 any better

00:57:56.020 than what we saw

00:57:56.780 in the past two years.

00:57:57.680 In fact,

00:57:58.000 I would put money down

00:57:59.260 that it would be

00:58:00.160 a lot worse.

00:58:01.760 And that's scary.

00:58:02.600 That's just my opinion,

00:58:03.520 but that's what I believe

00:58:04.500 personally

00:58:05.000 from what I was able

00:58:06.040 to garner

00:58:06.860 from my own experiences.

00:58:08.740 Yeah,

00:58:08.920 of course.

00:58:09.500 So,

00:58:10.520 my apologies,

00:58:11.200 Guy,

00:58:11.340 for making you go through

00:58:12.340 another Justin Trudeau video

00:58:13.800 at the end of JustLiveStream.

00:58:15.380 You should apologize.

00:58:16.840 Thank you so much

00:58:17.560 for coming on.

00:58:18.120 Eva,

00:58:18.360 where can people

00:58:19.000 find you on Twitter?

00:58:19.740 I heard that you're

00:58:20.340 now famous on Twitter.

00:58:21.480 You're famous on TikTok.

00:58:22.620 Really?

00:58:23.020 So,

00:58:23.240 where can we find you

00:58:24.260 on Twitter?

00:58:25.880 Incredibly unprofessionally,

00:58:27.200 I started a handle

00:58:28.300 before I thought

00:58:29.320 I'd ever use this,

00:58:30.400 but it's forever,

00:58:31.680 Eva,

00:58:32.060 maybe 79.

00:58:33.160 And what was the reason

00:58:33.840 why it's forever?

00:58:34.980 My name is Eva,

00:58:36.180 forever,

00:58:36.720 Eva.

00:58:36.940 The best lawyer ever.

00:58:38.920 Yeah,

00:58:39.160 so if there's ever

00:58:39.860 any doubt

00:58:40.420 on how you pronounce

00:58:41.960 Eva Chipek's name,

00:58:43.640 just say forever,

00:58:44.820 Eva,

00:58:45.240 and you'll be able

00:58:46.520 to say it right.

00:58:47.080 All right.

00:58:47.560 Thanks so much,

00:58:48.420 guys,

00:58:48.640 for tuning in.

00:58:49.360 Oh,

00:58:49.540 there's one thing

00:58:50.260 that we forgot to mention.

00:58:52.400 A lawyer collapsed

00:58:53.780 earlier during the inquiry.

00:58:55.900 You were in the room.

00:58:56.760 Can you tell us

00:58:57.520 what happened?

00:59:00.180 He collapsed.

00:59:01.560 It looked like he fainted.

00:59:03.500 Yeah.

00:59:03.920 There was a nurse 1.00

00:59:05.600 in the room

00:59:06.280 and she went

00:59:07.060 and attended

00:59:07.880 for him,

00:59:10.200 at him,

00:59:10.720 on him,

00:59:11.540 and she said

00:59:13.260 that he seemed okay

00:59:14.960 by the time

00:59:15.640 the EMS came.

00:59:17.180 He looked alert

00:59:17.720 when he left

00:59:18.420 and that's as much

00:59:19.700 as I know.

00:59:20.340 It was pretty shocking,

00:59:21.760 obviously,

00:59:22.240 for everyone.

00:59:22.680 For sure.

00:59:23.060 Yeah.

00:59:23.360 Yeah.

00:59:23.760 I hope he's doing great.

00:59:24.740 I think he was conscious

00:59:25.520 when he left the building.

00:59:26.860 Yeah.

00:59:27.080 It looked like he.

00:59:27.960 Everything should be fine.

00:59:28.980 And the witness

00:59:30.120 that appeared

00:59:30.760 in front of him

00:59:31.580 who underwent examination

00:59:33.580 because he was

00:59:34.460 a commissioned lawyer,

00:59:35.540 will he be testifying

00:59:37.000 tomorrow then?

00:59:37.720 I believe so.

00:59:38.440 Yeah.

00:59:38.580 It looks like he's back tomorrow.

00:59:39.980 All right.

00:59:40.340 Perfect.

00:59:40.700 So if you want to see

00:59:41.380 his testimony,

00:59:42.040 we'll be able to

00:59:42.840 see it tomorrow.

00:59:44.580 All right.

00:59:45.580 For real this time,

00:59:46.360 thank you so much,

00:59:47.200 everyone,

00:59:47.500 for joining us.

00:59:48.400 If you want to follow

00:59:49.920 all of our coverage

00:59:51.080 from the National Capital

00:59:53.580 for the next few weeks

00:59:54.740 at the Emergency Act Inquiry,

00:59:56.260 you can head on to

00:59:57.260 truckercommission.com.

01:00:00.560 Did we have any chats today?

01:00:05.400 Okay.

01:00:05.860 Perfect.

01:00:06.480 Okay.

01:00:06.700 So that's the actual goodbye.

01:00:08.600 So thank you so much

01:00:09.280 for tuning in, guys.

01:00:10.380 Thank you for co-hosting

01:00:11.420 with me, Celine.

01:00:12.260 And thank you for joining us.

01:00:13.660 Eva,

01:00:14.000 thank you to the coach,

01:00:15.480 the Freedom Convoy

01:00:17.200 organizer coach.

01:00:18.400 Coach Miller

01:00:19.100 for joining us shortly today.

01:00:21.380 And I hope that everyone

01:00:22.460 has a great evening.

01:00:27.060 Freedom in 2022

01:00:28.140 is a great threat in Canada.

01:00:30.920 We've got provincial governments

01:00:32.560 that have stripped away

01:00:33.540 fundamental human

01:00:35.180 and civil liberties in Canada.

01:00:37.400 And we've got a federal government

01:00:38.540 that is censoring

01:00:39.720 and controlling the media

01:00:41.060 and even cracking down

01:00:43.020 on the right to protest

01:00:44.080 in ways that are unprecedented

01:00:45.520 in the post-war era.

01:00:48.400 It's a fascinating

01:00:51.640 but terrifying time

01:00:53.040 if you're concerned

01:00:54.140 about freedom,

01:00:55.520 concerned about your basic liberties

01:00:56.840 right now.

01:00:58.100 But we've got to do more

01:00:59.060 than just complain about it.

01:01:00.460 That's why I've accepted

01:01:01.700 the invitation to speak

01:01:02.760 at the Rebel Live conference

01:01:04.000 in Calgary,

01:01:04.800 November 26,

01:01:05.840 coming right up here.

01:01:07.020 I'm going to be speaking

01:01:07.720 in particular

01:01:08.280 about the state of the media.

01:01:09.680 It's controlled

01:01:10.720 by the federal government

01:01:11.920 and what independent media

01:01:13.660 can do

01:01:14.280 to hold power to account,

01:01:16.360 to stand up

01:01:16.940 for our basic freedoms.

01:01:18.660 I'm going to be there.

01:01:19.320 I hope you'll come.

01:01:20.420 You can buy your tickets

01:01:21.220 at rebelnewslive.com

01:01:24.180 and I hope to see you there.

01:01:26.460 you're talking about it.

01:01:29.660 I'll be there.

01:01:30.220 Thank you.
