00:00:00.000 Hey folks, did you see that video of Justin Trudeau last night at a $1,500 a plate fundraiser?
00:00:05.940 Oh my gosh, it was incredible.
00:00:09.120 A few protesters actually paid that money to get in.
00:00:11.720 They were protesting the mercury poisoning at the Grassy Narrows Indian Band.
00:00:16.720 Of course, Trudeau didn't poison them, but he promised two years ago
00:00:19.480 to give them a sort of a poison treatment center, and he has not.
00:00:24.940 That's all interesting politics, but of course the most interesting thing
00:00:27.940 was his sneering, thanks for buying a ticket, thanks for donating.
00:00:33.020 Just incredible.
00:00:34.980 That's what the podcast today is about.
00:00:36.880 I also interview Lorne Gunter about the latest in lab scam.
00:00:40.720 Hey, can you do me a quick favor?
00:00:43.100 Can you go to the rebel.media slash shows,
00:00:45.680 and can you sign up to be an $8 a month premium subscriber?
00:00:48.920 This podcast is free, I know that.
00:00:51.220 But two things happen when you become a premium subscriber for $8 a month.
00:00:54.680 Number one, you can watch the video version of it,
00:00:57.940 which is useful when I show videos, like clips.
00:01:01.240 And number two, it actually helps pay for this podcast.
00:01:04.320 I'd be grateful if you would.
00:01:05.520 So that's the rebel.media slash shows.
00:01:08.960 Without further ado, here is our show.
00:01:12.560 You're listening to a Rebel Media podcast.
00:01:15.040 Tonight, the mask slips off for a moment,
00:01:18.320 and the whole world sees what Justin Trudeau is really like.
00:01:22.140 It's March 28th, and this is the Ezra LeVant Show.
00:01:27.000 Why should others go to jail when you're a biggest carbon consumer I know?
00:01:30.760 There's 8,500 customers here, and you won't give them an answer.
00:01:34.820 The only thing I have to say to the government about why I'm publishing it
00:01:38.460 is because it's my bloody right to do so.
00:01:40.700 Did you see Justin Trudeau last night?
00:01:49.020 He was at a $1,500-a-head fundraising reception.
00:01:52.460 That's for heavy hitters, people who really want to buy access,
00:01:55.940 get a chance to shake hands with Trudeau, look him in the eyes.
00:01:59.100 They didn't come to hear a speech.
00:02:01.080 I can tell you that.
00:02:03.820 Trudeau says exactly the same trite, empty talking points in person
00:02:09.200 as he says in public.
00:02:11.300 We care about the middle class and those working hard to join,
00:02:14.160 and we believe in taking climate action.
00:02:16.160 We're stronger because of our differences, blah, blah, blah.
00:02:19.400 Look, the people paying $1,500, they're not there for that
00:02:22.940 Hallmark card-style wisdom.
00:02:26.040 They're there for the same reason that SNC-Lavalin
00:02:28.620 lobbied Trudeau's inner circle more than 50 times.
00:02:31.640 They want something, and it's for sale, $1,500 at a time.
00:02:36.420 But then something happened that you wouldn't think would happen
00:02:39.900 at a $1,500 fundraiser.
00:02:42.580 Some protesters were there.
00:02:44.220 I guess they really paid the $1,500 to protest him.
00:02:48.780 And someone caught it on tape.
00:02:49.980 I don't know exactly who.
00:02:51.480 I'm not sure if this was open to the media.
00:02:53.480 I really would doubt it would be.
00:02:54.900 So someone obviously used their cell phone.
00:02:58.460 Protesters, and more than one, it seems like.
00:03:02.180 This was an expensive protest when you think of it.
00:03:04.940 Take a look.
00:03:05.860 But take a listen to what Trudeau says.
00:03:08.800 That we invest in the middle class and in people working hard to join it.
00:03:16.300 Thank you very much.
00:03:17.000 Thank you for being here tonight.
00:03:18.500 Thank you.
00:03:23.240 Thank you.
00:03:25.600 Thank you for being here.
00:03:27.020 Thank you very much for your donation tonight.
00:03:29.320 I really appreciate the donation to the Liberal Party of Canada.
00:03:33.180 And as we know, the Liberal Party is filled with different perspectives
00:03:40.320 and different opinions, and we respect them all.
00:03:42.480 And our commitment to reconciliation continues to be strong and committed.
00:03:47.140 And we will continue to engage.
00:03:49.460 Thank you, sir, for your donation to the Liberal Party of Canada.
00:03:52.740 I really appreciate you being here tonight.
00:03:55.020 Thank you for being here.
00:03:56.340 That is why we are moving forward on reconciliation in a real and tangible way.
00:04:01.400 Thank you, sir.
00:04:02.380 Thank you for being here tonight.
00:04:04.200 Thank you for highlighting how important reconciliation is.
00:04:08.280 Thank you for being here tonight, sir.
00:04:10.300 Thank you very much for your donation to the Liberal Party.
00:04:13.880 So, as I was saying...
00:04:16.860 So those protesters, in case you missed it,
00:04:19.120 they were in support of an Indian band known as Grassy Narrows.
00:04:23.740 It's in Ontario.
00:04:25.260 About 1,000 band members live on the reserves near the Manitoba border.
00:04:29.380 And their water supply was contaminated over the years by mercury poisoning from an industrial plant nearby.
00:04:37.060 Now, that's not a political claim or a talking point.
00:04:39.720 It is a medical fact.
00:04:41.360 Here's a peer-reviewed epidemiological study on it in the Canadian Medical Association Journal.
00:04:47.000 For years, governments have been promising to help.
00:04:49.800 Trudeau made a very specific promise back in 2017 to help, but he hasn't kept that promise.
00:04:55.660 Other than to do some photo ops with Indians, where he's on a horse just looking so awesome.
00:05:04.620 But for some reason, the Indians were expecting a bit more than Trudeau to be alone on a horse in a photo op. 0.83
00:05:12.020 And since, well, since Trudeau wouldn't go to Grassy Narrows, they came to him at his fundraiser.
00:05:20.100 And what did he tell them?
00:05:21.040 He laughed.
00:05:22.240 He laughed at the fact that they paid $1,500 a hat.
00:05:27.320 And there were, what, two or three of them, I think?
00:05:29.580 For just, what, a minute's worth of heckling?
00:05:32.160 Ha ha! 0.86
00:05:32.740 You just made me richer, is what he was really saying.
00:05:36.460 The money probably came from the band or its supporters, who probably made the calculation that while they need that money for medical care,
00:05:43.800 mercury poisoning is about as bad as it gets.
00:05:46.860 Probably makes sense to spend $3,000 or $4,500 to get Trudeau's attention.
00:05:51.400 Trudeau didn't mind.
00:05:52.540 The money was going straight to him.
00:05:54.180 And besides that, sneer.
00:05:55.800 Ha ha! 0.86
00:05:56.320 You guys think you're so clever. 1.00
00:05:58.100 Thanks for paying me your money, suckers. 1.00
00:06:00.340 Listen to what he says. 0.99
00:06:01.340 He rolls out those banal talking points.
00:06:03.760 He started the middle class and those working hard to join him.
00:06:08.040 Then he rolls out some boilerplate talking points about reconciliation with Aboriginal peoples.
00:06:13.620 But they weren't talking about reconciliation or some apology or another horseback photo op.
00:06:19.760 They're not talking even about a land claim.
00:06:22.340 They're just talking about when are you going to help us with the mercury poisoning?
00:06:25.660 But his banal empty lines, middle class and those working hard to join it, climate action, Aboriginal reconciliation.
00:06:32.680 That's all he has to do to get an applause from the rest of the people who were there.
00:06:36.740 They loved it.
00:06:38.920 They supported it.
00:06:39.880 They cheered it. 1.00
00:06:40.460 Slam dunk in your face, poisoned Indians. 1.00
00:06:44.840 Own goal, suckers. 1.00
00:06:46.340 You just gave Trudeau your money. 0.99
00:06:47.900 Joke's on you.
00:06:49.060 Ha ha! 0.86
00:06:49.760 They applauded him.
00:06:51.260 Even as he proved the same banalities he's been serving up to the actual donors, working hard, middle class.
00:07:02.160 He uses those on his enemies as insults. 1.00
00:07:05.400 He insults his enemies as they're being let out of the room by saying to them the stupid cliches with a sneer, showing how disrespectful he is. 1.00
00:07:13.500 The same cliches he says to everyone in that room with a smile, working hard, middle class, climate action. 1.00
00:07:19.080 But they don't get it.
00:07:20.620 He just showed the contempt he has for everyone.
00:07:23.540 And those are just lines.
00:07:25.720 But as long as they give him the money, he's fine.
00:07:30.920 That was awful.
00:07:31.820 I've never seen anything that bad for Trudeau. 0.99
00:07:33.900 He's a fake. 1.00
00:07:35.620 He's a fake feminist. 1.00
00:07:36.840 We knew that. 0.99
00:07:38.600 We've always known that.
00:07:39.480 He sexually assaulted Rose Knight in Creston, B.C.
00:07:41.880 He admitted as much to her.
00:07:43.340 But the media covered for him.
00:07:45.000 He's always been an empty vessel, a clothes horse.
00:07:46.880 The media said, well, that's just charming.
00:07:50.280 Like his socks.
00:07:51.300 They pretended it was, you know, when he was dressing up in India, that he was really working to rebrand Canada around the world or something after Harper's disastrous foreign policy.
00:08:01.520 But Harper's foreign policy was not disastrous.
00:08:03.680 It worked.
00:08:05.500 Harper was respected even if people disagreed with him.
00:08:07.440 But I can tell you, even people that didn't care much for Harper, like Communist China, they didn't dare, for example, ban Canadian canola or take Canadian citizens hostage, as China has done to us now under Trudeau.
00:08:27.320 So Trudeau has not made things better.
00:08:29.720 But I think the difference now, the difference now that Jody Wilson-Raybould has blown the whistle on Trudeau and Jane Philbot corroborated it and Gerald Butts and Michael Wernick are both being forced to resign in disgrace.
00:08:42.220 The difference now is that the media is slowly waking up to the fact that they've been played, too.
00:08:48.360 McLean's magazine wrote a cover story called The Imposter, which really is about McLean's and how they were fooled.
00:08:53.800 Trudeau's the same guy he's always been, a spoiled, trust fund, rich kid who, to use the analogy, he would never do his own homework.
00:09:01.660 He just copied off the smart kids and faked it with a smile on his last name and his daddy's powerful friends.
00:09:06.940 He said as much, but the mainstream media never listened.
00:09:10.640 He wasn't an imposter.
00:09:11.840 They just deluded themselves.
00:09:13.380 Here's Trudeau explaining how, growing up, his powerful father had his friends bend the law to get his brother out of jail.
00:09:22.300 Remember this?
00:09:23.460 He was driving back home from the West Coast across the country and he got in a terrible, terrible car accident and his truck tumbled and a Sucrets box went flying across the highway.
00:09:36.940 And when the police were helping him clean up and tow, they opened up the Sucrets box and there's a couple of joints inside.
00:09:45.680 So he was charged with possession.
00:09:48.720 When he got back home to Montreal, my dad said, OK, don't worry about it.
00:09:55.040 Reached out to his friends in the legal community, got the best possible lawyer and was very confident that we were going to be able to make those charges go away.
00:10:03.820 And he did.
00:10:07.620 And he admitted it.
00:10:08.600 That's what life is like as a Trudeau.
00:10:12.520 He's an imposter. 0.95
00:10:13.860 Well, I guess, but only if you chose to be fooled by him.
00:10:17.580 He's always said who he is.
00:10:19.000 You just heard him there.
00:10:20.680 The laws don't apply to Trudeaus.
00:10:22.260 What's happened in the past two months is that some media have decided not to go along with it anymore, that those little tricks he has don't work on everyone anymore.
00:10:32.880 Here, today, today, Trudeau was accosted by another Aboriginal woman and he tries his quiet, slow talking, I hear you, BS, and doesn't work.
00:10:45.940 She just doesn't fall for it here.
00:10:47.400 Now, this is two minutes long, but take a look at this whole thing.
00:10:51.120 Take a look.
00:10:52.360 You are a federal government.
00:11:07.100 You are the one that puts this to our lives.
00:11:09.720 You are poisoning our waters.
00:11:11.320 You are allowing other countries to come into our water.
00:11:14.020 No, no, no, no, no, thank you, Dad.
00:11:15.740 Oh, I'm thanking you for being direct with me.
00:11:18.180 I really appreciate that.
00:11:19.300 Oh, I'm very sorry, I have grandmother.
00:11:20.060 Your grandmother has cancer?
00:11:21.260 I hear you're attacking that.
00:11:22.440 Okay, I have drug cancer.
00:11:24.520 I am standing on the river stopping you from putting this through a pulsing gas.
00:11:28.880 We are going to work forward with regulations.
00:11:31.360 No regulations. 0.99
00:11:32.560 We don't want gas under our ass. 0.99
00:11:35.020 We're going to be working with the nationalist leadership. 0.99
00:11:37.540 We're going to be working with the problems.
00:11:38.420 Yeah, well, why don't you work with the grandmothers? 1.00
00:11:40.280 Because we can't, too.
00:11:41.660 We are going to be working with you and we're going to be working with indigenous people.
00:11:45.680 No, indigenous grandmothers because the chiefs are selling us out. 0.62
00:11:48.940 Oh, I'm sorry.
00:11:50.120 I'm sorry to tell you because they're all with you.
00:11:52.060 They don't have no say about dissolving gas.
00:11:54.660 We are saying take halting gas out of our province now.
00:11:59.840 Please, this is our waterways.
00:12:01.660 I will ask you to, I hear you, I understand.
00:12:04.180 Do you hear me?
00:12:04.580 I do, I hear you.
00:12:05.600 I hear your passion.
00:12:06.760 I hear your emotions around this.
00:12:09.660 And I hear your anger.
00:12:11.080 I hear your anger.
00:12:11.700 I'm not angry.
00:12:13.060 I'm worried.
00:12:14.020 I'm concerned for my generation.
00:12:16.360 I understand.
00:12:16.740 I have grandchildren and children.
00:12:19.280 And I'm going to have other grandchildren and other children.
00:12:22.080 So, you know.
00:12:23.100 I thank you for...
00:12:24.240 What about your children?
00:12:25.500 I'm worried about my children as well.
00:12:26.900 Are you?
00:12:27.240 No, then you wouldn't put your children in this province and have briding put in your waters? 1.00
00:12:33.260 No, you're sitting up there and you're protected.
00:12:36.440 You're not.
00:12:37.500 I'm going to listen to you and then I will respond.
00:12:39.800 Right?
00:12:40.080 You're not protected.
00:12:41.060 You're not protected.
00:12:42.120 You're not protecting our waterways.
00:12:45.740 I know you're angry.
00:12:49.420 No, no, I'm not actually.
00:12:51.680 See, that's sort of, I know your emotions.
00:12:53.700 And I'll say them back to you.
00:12:55.280 That used to work.
00:12:57.320 He used to obliquely disparage and denigrate people like that.
00:13:00.420 Sort of a psychological manipulation.
00:13:02.040 Didn't work this time.
00:13:02.960 Now, I don't know what that woman is arguing about. 1.00
00:13:05.040 She's not from the Grassy Narrows band.
00:13:08.320 She's not talking about the Mercury thing.
00:13:10.220 I think she was talking about fracking.
00:13:11.800 I think she's actually wrong.
00:13:13.840 But my point's not about the substance of her grievance.
00:13:16.740 The point is that Trudeau BS just doesn't seem to be working anymore.
00:13:22.280 But BS is all he has.
00:13:26.200 He's all about sunny ways.
00:13:27.860 That's all he's got.
00:13:28.700 He kept saying it.
00:13:29.860 Sunny ways.
00:13:30.620 Sunny ways.
00:13:31.400 Sunny ways.
00:13:31.840 So it had to be true.
00:13:33.180 It was his contrast to that meanie Stephen Harper.
00:13:36.500 I don't actually think Stephen Harper was that mean, by the way.
00:13:39.640 I think he was just sort of a no BS kind of guy who didn't have an interest in small talk or frivolity.
00:13:45.240 I mean, once a year, when Harper was at some fun event, like a staff Christmas party, Harper would play the piano with his band.
00:13:54.460 But it was pretty rare.
00:13:55.860 It wasn't like a weekly shtick.
00:13:58.260 And it was in an appropriate time and place, a staff party.
00:14:01.900 And that was about it.
00:14:03.320 And then there was, you know, one time he had his picture taken with a cat.
00:14:07.740 And I think I have just about gone through all of Stephen Harper's cuddly moments.
00:14:13.360 So with Trudeau, I mean, by contrast, the sunny ways frivolity is pretty much all there is.
00:14:20.900 I mean, he's a grown man making a sandcastle by himself.
00:14:27.920 With his kids, I get it.
00:14:29.760 That's what dads do.
00:14:30.900 But by himself?
00:14:33.440 Or his novelty socks.
00:14:35.100 I get it.
00:14:35.600 It's funny.
00:14:36.860 Once.
00:14:38.200 But when it's the only thing you have to say that it's at all interesting, when you're meeting foreign leaders like Angela Merkel there, who's as serious as a heart attack, and all you got is your novelty socks.
00:14:50.100 Hey, hey, hey, Chancellor Merkel.
00:14:52.300 Hey, Justin Trudeau from Canada.
00:14:54.260 Hey, can I show you my socks?
00:14:59.580 I mean, it's fun when you're known as the novelty socks guy in a lighthearted setting.
00:15:04.200 But you got to have more than that.
00:15:06.360 And Trudeau doesn't have more than that.
00:15:09.460 I mean, I know the CBC treats his socks like a real thing.
00:15:14.060 They do stories on his socks as if it was really impressing the whole world.
00:15:18.780 And all Stephen Harper had to do was put on some socks and we'd win.
00:15:22.160 But it's not impressing the world.
00:15:28.040 CBC is easy to impress because they're his employees.
00:15:31.440 I mean, when you pay a CBC reporter's salary, don't be surprised when they act a bit more like a girlfriend than like a reporter.
00:15:38.780 I mean, remember this video?
00:15:40.680 This was supposedly a hard-hitting interview by Rosemary Barton of Trudeau.
00:15:45.540 But we took up the audio and we replaced it with a love song.
00:15:49.360 So all you can see is the body language.
00:15:51.600 Is this an interview or is this a date?
00:15:56.040 Why do birds suddenly appear every time you are near?
00:16:08.840 Just like me, they long to be close to you.
00:16:17.040 Why do stars fall down from the sky every time you walk by?
00:16:31.340 Yeah.
00:16:33.060 He's married, Rosemary.
00:16:37.480 My point is that his BS, his son, anyways, it works, or at least it worked past tense on the media, at least.
00:16:47.680 Because it flattered them.
00:16:49.040 I remember this picture, that's Althea Raj and Paul Wells.
00:16:52.120 It flattered them.
00:16:53.820 Trudeau let them all call him Justin.
00:16:57.180 Stephen Harper never let them call him Steve.
00:16:59.580 And they never would have.
00:17:00.500 It's far too familiar.
00:17:01.680 And the media saw themselves as the official opposition under Harper.
00:17:04.760 Now they're all stenographers and cheerleaders.
00:17:07.320 But let me show you one more thing.
00:17:09.860 It's a new poll by Angus Reid.
00:17:11.960 Huge poll.
00:17:13.200 Huge sample size.
00:17:14.660 5,289 people surveyed.
00:17:16.640 That is, that's massive.
00:17:18.720 And the top line story is that the conservatives are at 37% nationally and the liberals are at just 28% nationally.
00:17:25.860 But let me show you something else.
00:17:27.060 Let me show you the breakdown by sex.
00:17:29.280 By a very slight margin, as you can see on the right-hand side there, more women would vote for Trudeau than would vote for Andrew Scheer.
00:17:38.220 It's 31 to 29.
00:17:39.500 But look at the number of men.
00:17:40.720 That's the bar graph in the middle.
00:17:42.640 46% of men in Canada would vote conservative.
00:17:51.920 Three-quarters of men would not vote liberal.
00:17:54.640 You'd have to find four men.
00:17:57.060 Are you voting liberal?
00:17:58.020 Are you voting liberal?
00:17:58.820 Are you?
00:17:59.420 Are you?
00:17:59.900 You'd have to ask four times before you found one man who would admit to voting liberal.
00:18:03.880 Now, that's sometimes phrased as the conservatives of a gender gap. 0.91
00:18:07.560 Women don't like them. 1.00
00:18:08.880 Yeah, no, it's Trudeau with the gender gap.
00:18:11.900 Men don't like him because men don't trust him.
00:18:15.240 Because, first of all, men can spot a male feminist a mile away. 1.00
00:18:18.020 And I'm not talking about a guy who's polite to women, opens doors for women, helps them, is nice to them, let me carry your groceries out to the car for you. 0.86
00:18:27.800 I think most men support guys like that, I think.
00:18:30.920 By male feminist, what I mean is a guy who's clearly just saying he's a feminist and saying it weirdly and incessantly as a trick.
00:18:41.100 In Trudeau's case, it's a political trick, but in real life, as a social trick, as a predatory scam to get women to trust you, and then you deceive them.
00:18:51.120 It's why so many men knew there was something wrong with Gian Gomeschi, even before he was revealed to be a serial predator.
00:18:59.600 Any guy who literally goes to college to get a degree in women's studies is up to something, and indeed he was.
00:19:09.480 It was a way for him to be surrounded by women and to let them, to get them, let their guard down, and then he would say, oh, baby, I'm just totally woke like you.
00:19:19.520 And then he would go on a date with them, and he would assault them again and again and physically punch them and then gaslight them by saying, baby, this is empowering to you, you know, 50 shades of gray.
00:19:30.040 This is for you, baby.
00:19:31.740 I thought this is what you wanted.
00:19:32.600 It's why so many men didn't trust Bill Clinton. 0.88
00:19:36.560 His over-the-top rhetorical feminism was obviously just a cover for his serial sexual assaults. 1.00
00:19:43.540 That male feminism is so fake, guys can immediately spot it because no guy talks that way. 1.00
00:19:50.240 But it absolutely works on lonely women of a certain age. 1.00
00:19:56.960 I mean, what do you think of this?
00:20:00.240 But you need to take as much effort to talk to your sons, my eight-year-old boy and my two-year-old, so a little young still, about how he treats women and how he is going to be grown up to be a feminist just like dad.
00:20:13.980 Yeah, every single red-blooded male who saw that sees a phony, not a gallant man who opens doors for women.
00:20:23.680 That little speech was aimed at the media party, which is disproportionately made up of lonely women of a certain age, and it absolutely works with them, but it does not work with men.
00:20:37.080 And by the way, after Justin Trudeau's treatment of Jody Wilson-Raybould and Jane Philpott, oh, and Selena Cesar Chavan now too, I think even some of the saner feminist women are realizing Trudeau is and always was a little bit of a Giangameshi, a little bit of the frat boy who groped Rose Knight back in Creston, B.C., sexually assaulted her, according to the New York Times.
00:21:02.020 His old shtick, it's just not working anymore. It's not working on Aboriginal people anymore, who've seen that he speaks with a forked tongue. 0.97
00:21:10.800 It's not working for some women who feel deceived now, especially those who know him best, those in his own cabinet.
00:21:18.800 Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott, they're not bamboozled anymore. It's certainly not working for men.
00:21:26.320 Only 25% of men in Canada would vote for him. By the way, in Canada, I don't know if you know this, but unemployment,
00:21:32.020 the unemployment rate for men is higher than it is for women. Is that contrary to what feminists would have you believe? 1.00
00:21:38.300 I think it's partly because women often have public sector jobs. So they're in teachers unions or nurses unions or some other public sector union. 0.99
00:21:44.860 So they aren't victimized by Trudeau's weird war on private sector jobs like oil and gas and pipelines and mining and auto plants, jobs that are predominantly male jobs, of course.
00:21:55.460 If you cause 100,000 men to lose jobs in oil and gas because you talk about some spacey idea like climate change,
00:22:05.100 don't be surprised when working men think your belief in the middle class is as fake as your belief in feminism.
00:22:12.700 And I'm not sure if sending out a screeching feminist social justice warrior to shout about global warming, 1.00
00:22:21.840 literally shouting, not sure if that's going to win working males back either.
00:22:28.580 So let's talk about climate change for a second. Who believes it's real?
00:22:32.540 We got a report last year that said we have 12 years to take serious climate action.
00:22:45.180 We are all in this together. We need to act.
00:22:48.400 And just remember last year. Who remembers last summer?
00:22:53.100 Who remembers the extreme heat that we felt last summer?
00:22:57.540 Who remembers that people literally died of extreme heat?
00:23:01.660 I've called people, I've called mothers in British Columbia where there were forest fires.
00:23:08.600 Remember those forest fires? And guess what?
00:23:11.140 They were scared for their kids to go outside because the air quality was so bad.
00:23:18.680 You know what? I'm repulsed by that.
00:23:22.560 But I just say put that woman on a non-stop campaign, Justin Trudeau.
00:23:27.360 Let's see if we can drive those male numbers down to 10% support. 0.92
00:23:33.160 Oh my God. Now none of this surprises me.
00:23:37.560 Justin Trudeau grew up in a home where his dad, Pierre Trudeau, would beat his mom.
00:23:42.640 Look at this headline. Pierre gave her a black eye.
00:23:46.640 Pierre Trudeau would beat Justin Trudeau's mother, Margaret Trudeau, so badly
00:23:50.340 she'd have a black eye and she'd say to reporters, 1.00
00:23:54.480 oh, I don't mind because it proves that Pierre loves me.
00:23:58.100 That's actually what she told that newspaper back then.
00:24:01.180 That's normal for the Trudeaus. 1.00
00:24:03.920 And then normal for the next 30 years was women giving Justin Trudeau exactly what he wanted from them 0.97
00:24:10.580 because he was rich and good looking and a famous last name
00:24:14.000 and he could destroy you if you didn't give it to him
00:24:17.380 and he would take it even if you didn't give it to him.
00:24:20.540 Ask Rose Knight about that. 1.00
00:24:23.220 That same sociopath, that Canadian psycho, if you please. 0.99
00:24:28.240 He managed to succeed his whole life as a bit of a con man, 0.99
00:24:33.580 but the con artist needs the con to continue.
00:24:36.180 Con actually stands for confidence.
00:24:38.040 Once that's broken, once people see through you, it all falls apart.
00:24:41.540 I think that's what's happening now.
00:24:44.900 The real Justin Trudeau is showing himself thin-skinned, angry, entitled,
00:24:49.820 sneering at everyone, supporters and opponents.
00:24:52.960 That's what that video last night was. 1.00
00:24:55.080 It was fake, it was slippery, it was a liar. 0.95
00:24:58.700 What's new, I guess, is that for the first time, 0.96
00:25:01.200 the rest of the media, or at least many of them,
00:25:03.380 are finally noticing.
00:25:06.760 Stay with us for more.
00:25:11.540 Welcome back.
00:25:22.860 Well, I think one of the reasons why these little disturbances,
00:25:28.080 like the hecklers at his fancy fundraiser yesterday,
00:25:31.660 one of the reasons that they're piercing through
00:25:33.680 is that over the last two months or so,
00:25:36.540 Justin Trudeau's Teflon has been wiped off
00:25:40.720 by Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott,
00:25:44.180 and the rest of the lab scam.
00:25:46.640 It's shown that Justin Trudeau is not this Sunnyways saint,
00:25:51.820 and I think for the first time,
00:25:53.980 journalists are looking critically at other issues, too.
00:25:58.460 Let's look now to the lab scam,
00:26:00.660 and joining us now with the latest is our friend,
00:26:03.380 Lorne Gunter from the Edmonton Sun.
00:26:04.980 Lorne, good to have you here.
00:26:06.760 I think my point is, this is such a big blow to Trudeau,
00:26:11.280 this Jody Wilson-Raybould, Jane Philpott thing,
00:26:14.220 that it has allowed journalists,
00:26:16.240 it's given them the courage,
00:26:17.920 or the disillusionment in Trudeau,
00:26:21.320 that they're able to finally do some real journalism on the guy
00:26:24.300 on any number of things.
00:26:26.120 That's my thesis, at least.
00:26:27.700 Yeah, I think you're absolutely right.
00:26:29.060 I think they're seeing that he's actually a cardboard cutout of a leader,
00:26:35.420 and they had been ignoring that.
00:26:37.920 I think you're right.
00:26:38.900 It's not giving them the courage.
00:26:40.880 I think it's disillusionment.
00:26:42.500 Way too many Canadian journalists had bought into the Sunnyways, 1.00
00:26:46.660 the male feminist,
00:26:48.260 the leader of reconciliation with Indigenous people,
00:26:52.100 all of the myths that he'd spouted about himself,
00:26:55.840 which I think he also believes about himself.
00:26:59.000 If I thought the man was dishonest,
00:27:01.300 that he'd been portraying something he really wasn't
00:27:05.020 for the last five or six years since he became a liberal leader,
00:27:09.000 it might in a strange kind of way also have more grudging respect for him,
00:27:13.380 that he was a flim flam man.
00:27:15.020 But I think he actually believes everything he says about himself.
00:27:20.100 He's just exceptionally shallow.
00:27:22.180 And now that shallowness is showing through.
00:27:25.980 And I have to think, too, that, for instance,
00:27:28.140 that reaction to the Grassy Narrows Indigenous protester
00:27:33.020 at the fundraiser is the fact that he's under intense pressure now
00:27:37.440 that he never expected.
00:27:38.660 He always thought everyone would love him,
00:27:41.580 that things would go sunny, that he'd be the shiny pony,
00:27:46.520 as you used to call him.
00:27:48.640 And he's upset now that that's falling apart.
00:27:52.840 And he doesn't know why.
00:27:54.440 He can't understand why people still don't love him
00:27:56.340 the way they did before.
00:27:57.320 Why don't people want a shirtless selfie with me now,
00:28:02.000 the way they did when I was first prime minister?
00:28:04.280 I'm prepared to take my shirt off for anyone.
00:28:06.220 So, you know, so I do think that he's disillusioned
00:28:11.860 and he's under incredible strains and pressures.
00:28:15.840 I'm hearing from people in Ottawa,
00:28:17.660 but I just think this is idle speculation at this point,
00:28:20.680 that there's pressure on him to leave.
00:28:23.760 My hope, my very great hope,
00:28:26.140 is that he keeps getting damaged,
00:28:28.160 but that he stays as liberal leader until October for the election.
00:28:32.440 I think that would be the very best thing for the country,
00:28:34.400 as if they went into the election with Truro still as the leader.
00:28:38.020 Yeah, I think you're right.
00:28:39.020 You know, I keep coming back to that cover story in McLean's,
00:28:42.480 written by Paul Wells, The Imposter.
00:28:45.860 And it actually uses an identical image from a previous McLean's cover,
00:28:50.120 where that happy, glad-handing photo was used in a loving portrayal.
00:28:55.740 So they used the same image, and now they're saying The Imposter.
00:28:58.580 I think that story was actually an autobiographical sort of Dear Diary story
00:29:05.580 by Paul Wells, by McLean's.
00:29:07.400 When you say The Imposter, you're saying,
00:29:09.640 I was hoodwinked.
00:29:11.080 I fell forward.
00:29:12.060 So it's not even the story so much about Trudeau.
00:29:14.040 I think he's pretty much always been who he is.
00:29:16.580 I think this is the story about McLean's and a dozen other journalists saying,
00:29:21.280 yeah, I was hoodwinked.
00:29:23.980 When you finally write about someone, he's an imposter, 1.00
00:29:27.440 what you're really saying is, I was wrong about him.
00:29:31.960 Yeah, but the thing is, and I think the reason this is going to get particularly vicious for Trudeau,
00:29:36.960 not by Trudeau, but about Trudeau, is that, yes, I think you're absolutely right.
00:29:42.500 These people were hoodwinked.
00:29:43.760 But they're not going to admit that they were hoodwinked.
00:29:46.720 They're going to insist that this proves he's a hoodwinker.
00:29:50.360 You know, we're all smart.
00:29:53.100 We're all capable people.
00:29:55.200 He pulled the wool over our eyes, but it's his fault, not ours, for that blindness.
00:30:01.860 They won't admit that they bought into the dream.
00:30:06.000 They'll say that he was peddling a false dream all along, which is even worse for him.
00:30:10.180 You know, there's one more thing that's exacerbating this,
00:30:13.840 and I think it is new in the last few months,
00:30:17.780 and it's a viciousness by which the prime minister's office is fighting back.
00:30:24.520 And I want to bring it back to Lav Scam. 0.98
00:30:26.240 Remember, that's the nickname for the SNC-Lavalan corruption matter
00:30:31.240 that Jody Wilson-Raybould said.
00:30:32.380 I absolutely will not let them off the hook.
00:30:36.840 And Trudeau and his staff, in 10 meetings and 10 phone calls,
00:30:42.120 tried to get Jody Wilson-Raybould to let them off the hook, and she wouldn't. 0.93
00:30:45.860 So fighting with her, fighting with Jane Philpott,
00:30:49.500 but that fighting is plumbed to a new depth.
00:30:52.240 And I'd like to ask you about this because you wrote this in your column.
00:30:55.480 Let me just read the headline to your column a couple days ago.
00:30:59.220 The latest Lav Scam excuse is illogical and unbelievable.
00:31:04.660 What the PMO is doing, and maybe you can give us the facts,
00:31:08.220 is they're sort of rooting around in anything she did as justice minister for two years
00:31:13.460 and trying to say she was a terrible justice minister, just terrible.
00:31:17.300 I mean, look at this.
00:31:18.640 Give us some facts that you mentioned in your column.
00:31:22.740 Well, back in 2017, when Beverly McLaughlin stepped down
00:31:28.100 as a chief justice of the Supreme Court.
00:31:29.860 There was a vacancy, not only for the chief justice, but on the nine-member court.
00:31:35.160 And so according to the whisperers now, the anonymous sources
00:31:39.960 who are trying to recreate or resurrect Trudeau's image,
00:31:46.820 Wilson-Raybould advanced the candidacy of Glenn Joel,
00:31:52.420 who is the chief judge of the Queen's Bench Court in Manitoba.
00:31:57.700 And he's a 20-year prosecutor.
00:32:00.480 He studied at Oxford.
00:32:02.020 He's bilingual.
00:32:03.340 And my digging around with the Winnipeg legal community the day this story arose,
00:32:09.400 they said his judgments were so thorough and so well thought out
00:32:13.560 that they were almost unappealable.
00:32:15.080 If he gave you a trial judgment, there was very likelihood you were ever going to get
00:32:19.580 the Manitoba Court of Appeal to hear any kind of revision to that.
00:32:24.220 So a very, very smart guy.
00:32:26.480 But he gave a speech one time at a constitutional foundation where he said,
00:32:30.780 you know, I'm a big believer in individual rights rather than collective rights.
00:32:35.320 And I am a little worried.
00:32:36.820 The original intent of the charter was not to give judges preeminence
00:32:41.800 over the legislatures and parliament.
00:32:44.220 In fact, on two particular cases, same-sex rights and abortion rights,
00:32:51.760 when this came to hearings before the parliament,
00:32:54.820 the legislators were assured, the parliamentarians were assured,
00:32:57.880 no, no, no, judges would never override the will of parliament
00:33:01.540 on those two matters.
00:33:03.480 Well, of course, the judges quickly invented reading into the charter
00:33:08.820 and they overrode parliament quickly.
00:33:11.020 And so he said, I don't think that's right.
00:33:12.940 My thought is that there should be a better dialogue between the courts
00:33:16.180 and parliament.
00:33:17.480 And so he's a very thoughtful guy.
00:33:19.060 But because he wasn't immediately in favor of judicial activism
00:33:23.020 and didn't think the charter trumped anything political,
00:33:27.760 that was considered conservative by Trudeau, apparently.
00:33:31.060 Now, one of the parts I don't believe about this story is somebody said,
00:33:34.380 well, Trudeau read a speech that Joelle had given.
00:33:37.760 Trudeau didn't read any speech that a judge had given.
00:33:40.600 Maybe he was given a copy of the speech with highlights to say, look,
00:33:45.200 this is what this guy has said.
00:33:46.760 But not even the smartest prime ministers kicking around,
00:33:49.700 looking at journals of dusty constitutional forums
00:33:54.240 and remembering the details of judges before they've been nominated
00:33:59.060 and what they said.
00:34:00.280 So that was unbelievable.
00:34:02.000 Also, if he was so upset about this and so upset about Wilson Rabel pushing this,
00:34:07.940 quote, unquote, conservative judge on him, he had a major cabinet shuffle after that incident
00:34:14.860 and well before the SNC-Lavalin story began where he could have shuffled her, but he didn't.
00:34:21.920 So that means their story doesn't make sense there.
00:34:24.020 The other thing, though, that isn't hard for anyone to remember is that
00:34:28.040 February 7th is when the SNC-Lavalin story began.
00:34:32.280 For the next six weeks after that, when you had the prime minister himself
00:34:36.480 or Gerald Butts or Michael Wernick, the retired clerk of the Privy Council,
00:34:41.840 talking about this, none of them ever said that the tiff between Trudeau
00:34:47.360 and Jody Wilson-Raybould had anything to do with anything but SNC-Lavalin.
00:34:52.080 It was all about SNC-Lavalin.
00:34:53.700 They all said, yes, yes, OK.
00:34:55.000 So we were talking to her about that, but we didn't realize that she thought she was under pressure
00:34:59.060 or we weren't trying to.
00:35:00.160 The pressure we were putting on her wasn't inappropriate pressure.
00:35:02.720 There was no intent to politically interfere.
00:35:04.960 No, all of this centered around SNC-Lavalin.
00:35:07.540 Now, as of last weekend, the people who are trying to resurrect Trudeau's image are saying,
00:35:15.380 well, no, it never had anything to do with SNC-Lavalin.
00:35:17.660 It had to do with this judge, which is so cockamamie.
00:35:20.820 It's hard to believe that grownups are even trying to convince you of that.
00:35:24.840 Yeah, and I'm not sure if tearing down Jody Wilson-Raybould in any way builds up Justin Trudeau.
00:35:31.520 It just makes him look spiteful.
00:35:32.760 And it puts a lie to his fake friendliness in public.
00:35:38.760 There's so many other things.
00:35:40.240 I mean, just today, the new attack on Jody Wilson-Raybould is that
00:35:43.700 someone who apparently was falsely imprisoned, served 17 years in prison, four years on parole,
00:35:50.360 that Jody Wilson-Raybould had her, had his file on her desk for two months
00:35:55.640 while she was considering what to do.
00:35:58.540 First of all, that doesn't really sound scandalous to me.
00:36:01.300 Second of all, if you're, if that's what you're doing,
00:36:03.720 if you're rooting around through every single thing that she ever did in two years
00:36:09.360 as a loyal justice minister, where you never had a public criticism, as you point out,
00:36:13.760 and you're just throwing, and first of all, if that's all you got on her,
00:36:17.440 she's pretty clean as a whistle. 0.50
00:36:19.260 And second of all, you're rooting around in these private cases,
00:36:21.940 and you're trying to embarrass someone.
00:36:24.560 It just looks so mean-spirited.
00:36:27.760 It's like they're saying, let's detonate any of this Sunny Ways residual.
00:36:32.780 Like, it's like he's, it's like he's seeking to destroy his own reputation as a nice guy.
00:36:38.020 That's all Trudeau has left, his nice guy-ness.
00:36:41.060 And if he wants to replace it with a brutal street fighter,
00:36:44.220 I don't think it's going to do him well.
00:36:45.980 No, and he doesn't look like a brutal street fighter, either.
00:36:48.520 He looks like a whiner. 0.96
00:36:50.060 At the very best, he looks like a guy who has a coat full of watches in the alley
00:36:54.440 and says, hey, if you don't like this one, how about this one?
00:36:57.580 Or how about this one?
00:36:58.380 They just look desperate to try and get people off of Lavalin.
00:37:04.580 And yet, they can't.
00:37:06.920 You may remember way, way back when Stockwell Day was a leader of the Canadian Alliance
00:37:12.140 and the Schwinigan Gate was on, the ad scam,
00:37:18.640 and the Aubert Grand Maire and all those scandals in Quebec.
00:37:21.240 There was a judge named Joel Silcov, who one weekend gave the RCMP a search-and-destroy warrant
00:37:32.100 to go to the home of the Business Development Canada president
00:37:35.520 and look for any documents related to the Aubert Grand Maire or the golf course next door,
00:37:42.000 which was owned by Jean ChrƩtien.
00:37:43.340 And Stockwell Day said, oh, my goodness, you know, this is scandalous
00:37:48.700 because this judge, less than a year earlier, had been a law partner
00:37:54.320 in the firm that handled ChrƩtien's golf course matters.
00:37:58.360 Isn't that a conflict of interest?
00:37:59.780 How can he not recuse himself from hearing this request for an order and granting one?
00:38:05.760 And the legal community in Canada went crazy.
00:38:09.620 How can a politician impugn the judicial independence or the reputation of this great man on the bench?
00:38:17.600 I thought it was actually a legitimate question when he asked.
00:38:20.460 Now you have the prime minister's office sullying the reputation of Glenn Joel,
00:38:26.380 who's the Queen's bench chief judge in Quebec,
00:38:29.860 for the express purposes of trying to discredit Jody Wilson-Raybould and get their man out of hot water.
00:38:36.440 And thankfully, the Bar Association in the last 48 hours or so has come out and said,
00:38:41.620 this is despicable.
00:38:42.660 They should not be doing this.
00:38:44.400 But they've been very quiet about this attempt by the liberals to interfere in the judicial process up until now.
00:38:50.960 And so I'm glad to see that it's happening.
00:38:53.400 But this is a far greater sin, what they're doing with Glenn Joel in Manitoba,
00:38:58.600 than what Stockwell Day ever did by mentioning Joel Silcov back, what is it, 18 years ago now.
00:39:06.920 You know, I want to add one more wrinkle.
00:39:10.760 Joyal, in the end, withdrew from consideration.
00:39:16.120 And he put this in a public letter.
00:39:17.960 And you could imagine how reluctant he would have been.
00:39:20.920 He said, I withdrew because my wife had breast cancer and it was getting bad.
00:39:27.600 I mean, imagine having to say that in public.
00:39:30.320 And why did he feel the need to say that in public?
00:39:32.560 Because Trudeau was trying to weaponize, oh, well, we didn't choose him because he was too right-wing.
00:39:38.960 And the judge had to say, no, you didn't choose me because I quit.
00:39:42.380 And I didn't quit because I wasn't a fit.
00:39:44.420 I quit because my wife had cancer.
00:39:46.080 I mean, imagine being humiliated.
00:39:49.100 And I think that's finally what tricked the Bar Association into action.
00:39:53.520 They said, oh, my God.
00:39:54.900 Because, frankly, Lorne, you raise a good point. 0.97
00:39:57.260 The Bar Association, they have been quiet as church mice this whole time until now because they suck up to power.
00:40:06.240 Every single poobah in the law societies, in the bar associations, they don't care about the last justice minister. 1.00
00:40:13.280 It's the current justice minister that they get in the department. 0.77
00:40:15.440 They suck up to liberal power. 0.96
00:40:17.060 Yeah. 1.00
00:40:17.400 They suck up to liberal power. 0.98
00:40:18.420 Right. 0.87
00:40:18.800 Whenever a conservative prime minister comes in, it doesn't happen much in our lifetime, but when Harper came in and he started appointing judges who were more of a conservative bent, the Bar Association went crazy.
00:40:31.380 Oh, he's destroying the impartiality of our bent.
00:40:33.960 Well, 75 percent of judges appointed under the liberals, under ChrƩtien, had made donations to the Liberal Party or had connections to volunteering with the Liberal Party.
00:40:44.540 The Bar Association never said anything about that.
00:40:46.780 But the instant that Harper starts to do something similar, not on the same grand scale, but something similar with judges under his term, well, the Bar Association squawked.
00:40:56.940 So it's taken a lot for the Bar Association to get upset about this.
00:41:00.620 You know it's a real issue.
00:41:02.080 If the Canadian Bar Association is prepared to take on a liberal prime minister.
00:41:07.240 Yeah, that's a very good point.
00:41:08.260 I remember once I counted up how many press releases the Canadian Bar Association had about Omar Khadr.
00:41:14.120 And I don't remember the exact number, but it was an enormous number.
00:41:16.860 However, Lauren, not one of them was issued when the liberals were in office.
00:41:22.900 Of course, half of Khadr's odyssey happened under Jean ChrƩtien and Paul Martin.
00:41:31.520 And the Bar Association didn't think anything was wrong when a liberal was PM.
00:41:36.740 But the minute Harper became prime minister, then they started their monthly campaign for Khadr.
00:41:40.920 It's just a little point about the Bar Association.
00:41:43.100 Well, listen, it's great to see you again.
00:41:44.780 This is very interesting stuff.
00:41:46.380 And maybe we can catch up with you in a week or two, because I am absolutely sure Trudeau,
00:41:51.360 especially without Gerald Butts there in his ear every day.
00:41:54.860 I think Trudeau is like a ship without a rudder in choppy seas.
00:41:59.520 And it's very interesting.
00:42:01.080 We haven't seen anything like this in three and a half years.
00:42:04.360 No, no.
00:42:05.160 And I maybe shouldn't delight in it as much as I am, but I am somewhat gleeful about it all.
00:42:10.940 Yeah.
00:42:11.480 All right, my friend.
00:42:12.140 And we'll have to catch up another day about the Alberta election, too,
00:42:14.940 which, frankly, I don't think it's that exciting.
00:42:17.300 I think it's a done deal.
00:42:18.340 But we can talk about that another time.
00:42:20.560 Absolutely.
00:42:21.100 All right.
00:42:21.420 There you have it.
00:42:21.880 Lorne Gotter, senior columnist with the Edmonton Sun.
00:42:24.540 And I recommend his column.
00:42:25.960 If you haven't read it yet, you can find it at the EdmontonSun.com.
00:42:29.040 It's called The Latest Lab Scam.
00:42:31.500 Excuse is illogical and unbelievable.
00:42:35.000 Stay with us.
00:42:35.500 More ahead on the rabbit.
00:42:36.060 Hey, welcome back on my monologue yesterday about three stories from the CBC State Broadcaster
00:42:51.640 that proves it's an enemy of the Canadian people.
00:42:54.060 Liza writes,
00:42:54.660 Think of what comes flying out of our pockets to pay for all that indoctrination.
00:42:59.620 They are nothing but a mouthpiece for Trudeau's extremist far-left agenda.
00:43:03.280 Yeah, you know what I did a show a few months back?
00:43:05.660 I should probably do an update on it.
00:43:07.200 On a new channel that Trudeau has ordered at the CBC.
00:43:11.260 It's on a new channel.
00:43:12.020 It's a new sort of department.
00:43:13.460 It's a new website.
00:43:14.320 It's called CBC News Kids.
00:43:17.360 Now, there are kid shows on the CBC, sort of like Sesame Street or whatever.
00:43:23.920 You know, teach kids-y things.
00:43:26.080 But kids' news.
00:43:28.760 Do kids follow the news?
00:43:30.500 Do kids of tender years follow the news?
00:43:33.180 Not really.
00:43:34.480 But this isn't really news.
00:43:36.260 It's propaganda.
00:43:37.920 It's ideology.
00:43:39.520 And I follow this because I think it's really creepy.
00:43:42.140 It's grown-ups rewriting ideological commentaries in sort of grade two level language and having child actors read it.
00:43:53.200 And the two top, well, three, I'd say, top issues on the CBC Kids News is obviously global warming, terrify the kids, marijuana legalization.
00:44:03.580 They're obsessed with it, even though, of course, minor children are not allowed to have it.
00:44:08.500 And the third and the biggest focus is early sexualization of kids.
00:44:14.720 They are so pro-trans sex ed. 0.95
00:44:20.460 And this, I say again, is targeting children.
00:44:24.400 It's so weird.
00:44:26.560 None of those things are genuine news for kids.
00:44:31.280 So, yeah, I mean, you want to talk about the weirdest stuff on the CBC.
00:44:34.440 Look at what they're piping into kids using child actors.
00:44:38.500 I got to say, I got to say, I don't think Xi'an Gomeshi was the only person at the CBC who was breaking the law.
00:44:46.140 Well, he was acquitted of his crimes.
00:44:48.880 It wouldn't surprise me if there was a Jimmy Savile-type character at the CBC.
00:44:52.420 We'll get into that another day.
00:44:54.560 Ron writes,
00:44:55.280 Nothing will change at the CBC as Scheer, who is set to win the next election, has no plans to defund it, dismantle it, or sell off its assets.
00:45:02.540 CBC will continue to spread fake news, and its social engineering agenda will continue to the detriment of all Canadians who will continue to pay for it through taxes.
00:45:09.740 You are exactly right.
00:45:11.600 If Stephen Harper himself would not defund the CBC, or forget about defunding it, just sell it off, privatize it, Scheer certainly won't.
00:45:19.080 Scheer does not have the backbone of Harper.
00:45:23.440 And I point out that Jason Kenney has been very soft on the CBC, and look at how they returned the favor in yesterday's show.
00:45:29.360 I showed you that they have put seven CBC reporters on the file of hunting his irregularities in his leadership campaign.
00:45:38.020 So, yeah, I mean, Andrew Scheer is despised by the CBC, but he's still playing the game of trying to win them over.
00:45:46.520 Robert writes,
00:45:47.720 I partially blame Harper for the size and power of the CBC.
00:45:49.900 He was a timid prime minister and did nothing to restrain the CBC when he had the chance.
00:45:54.440 Stephen Harper did a lot of great things, but his two greatest failures, in my opinion, were, number one, the CBC,
00:45:59.760 and number two, he did not appoint conservatives to the courts.
00:46:03.940 In fact, most of the appointments on the Supreme Court, either appointments to the Supreme Court or promotions within the Supreme Court,
00:46:10.440 were done by Harper.
00:46:13.700 Maybe he put one conservative on the bench.
00:46:16.300 That's an opportunity that will never come around again.
00:46:18.720 And that goes without saying, the Senate appointments that he left unfilled, and Trudeau just stacked it.
00:46:24.220 That's our show for today.
00:46:25.940 Until tomorrow, on behalf of all of us here at Rebel World Headquarters, to you at home, good night.
00:46:31.140 And keep fighting for freedom.
00:46:33.940 We'll be right back.
