00:01:16.140 version of my show. Justin Trudeau is supporting the Pride Parade in Vancouver for their deep

00:01:26.460 platforming of a reasonable trans person and the Conservatives are now accused of blocking

00:01:31.460 pro-family candidates. My guest tonight has an insider's take on all of this. I'm Sheila Gunn-Reed

00:01:38.380 and you're watching The Gunn Show. Before I get into today's show I want to share with you

00:02:00.160 just a little anecdote for context. During the United Conservative Party leadership race here in Alberta

00:02:07.560 every single day I would wake up. I would survive the morning mayhem until I put the kids on the bus

00:02:14.320 and then I would shuffle downstairs, plonk myself in front of this very computer and open up my work email

00:02:21.140 and every single day without fail I would have a series of the same emails. Different wording,

00:02:29.200 different versions but mostly all the same. I'd have emails from a group of people saying

00:02:34.720 Sheila you're a shill for Jason Kenney and then I would have another series of emails

00:02:39.660 from a whole other group of people telling me that I was in the bag for Brian Jean. For me that

00:02:46.960 criticism coming at me from both sides pretty well equally told me that I was doing my job. I was being

00:02:54.320 critical of Conservatives when they deserved it and complimentary when they earned it because I'm a

00:03:00.680 small c conservative journalist. I don't work for politicians. If I wanted to be in the bag for a

00:03:06.640 politician I would just go get a job as one of their press secretaries or you know I would just

00:03:12.400 like work for the CBC. And my door here or rather my Skype is always open for any and all politicians

00:03:20.340 who want to talk to me even those on the far left. But right now I know that my friends in the

00:03:25.760 Conservative Party of Canada and I have many friends in that party they're not able to talk to me about

00:03:31.140 issues that you and I and they care deeply about and that's a real shame and it's their loss not to

00:03:38.560 have the ability to speak to our viewers our nearly one and a quarter million viewers. I wish it wasn't

00:03:44.500 that way but it's out of my control and I'm not taking it personally. It's business. I've said this

00:03:51.160 before and I'll say it again. I champion good ideas and good conservative principles wherever I find

00:03:57.880 them and in whatever party that brings them forward and I will always be critical of parties claiming to

00:04:04.960 be conservative and then doing things that are completely not because that's my job. I work for

00:04:09.720 the rebel and I work for our viewers. I work for myself and my own sense of integrity. I don't work

00:04:15.560 for your preferred candidate. The reason I'm saying this is because I have on the show today a

00:04:20.580 People's Party of Canada candidate for Red Deer Lacombe but I'm not really having her on the show

00:04:25.740 because she's a People's Party of Canada candidate although she's now a politician so of course the

00:04:31.820 conversation is going to go in that direction. That's what it's like when you're interviewing

00:04:36.600 politicians who are actively campaigning. I have Laura Lynn Tyler Thompson on the show now for the

00:04:43.560 same reason I had her on before she entered politics and that reason is because she's a bit of a 1.00

00:04:50.440 culture warrior. As a former Christian broadcaster she's been on the forefront of these battles and

00:04:56.940 skirmishes against the encroaching cultural Marxism in society for years now and with Jessica Yaniv in

00:05:04.940 the news in British Columbia and the Liberals attempts to censor pro-life movies in Canada and

00:05:10.780 with some pro-life organizations coming out and saying that the Conservative Party of Canada is now

00:05:17.220 blocking candidacies of pro-life pro-family candidates. I thought who better to come on the show

00:05:25.060 than someone who's really been in the thick of all of this. So joining me tonight in an interview we

00:05:30.640 recorded yesterday afternoon from her new home in Red Deer is Laura Lynn Tyler Thompson.

00:05:36.620 Joining me now from her new home in Red Deer, Alberta is former Christian broadcaster and now People's

00:06:01.040 Party of Canada candidate for Red Deer, Laura Lynn Tyler Thompson. Hey Laura, thanks so much for joining me.

00:06:10.040 You're such a joy to always have on the show. You're very generous with your time but I wanted to have you on

00:06:14.400 today because you are a culture warrior. You've really been on the forefront of the cultural battle here in Canada

00:06:24.980 and at great personal cost. You've lost employment opportunities, you've lost political opportunities

00:06:33.420 and with so much going on in the culture war, I wanted to have you on because I mean you really have

00:06:39.600 your finger on the pulse of these issues. Thank you so much Sheila. It is such an honor to be with you again.

00:06:46.600 I love your work. I love you are also a culture warrior and some of us literally put our lives on the line

00:06:53.300 to say that Canada is going down a wrong path and and we're not going to be silent as it heads towards

00:06:59.680 that cliff. Yeah, I mean what people don't know is you actually were pushed out of your job in Christian 0.52

00:07:07.840 broadcasting because you've really been taking on the trans ideology issue and then you were excluded

00:07:17.340 from the Conservative Party of Canada because of your vocalness on this issue. You've really been

00:07:25.180 ringing the alarm bell and here we are now with Jonathan Jessica Yaniv being the culmination of all the

00:07:32.420 things that you were warning about. Absolutely. I mean when I first heard, you know,

00:07:37.500 close to a couple years ago now that they are teaching gender fluidity to little kids. I thought

00:07:43.120 that's crazy. Everyone's going to be on my side and we're going to put the word out and and it'll all

00:07:48.160 be done and and I thought that my Christian organization that I was hired by and enjoying my

00:07:56.020 job that they would also stand with me and I don't blame them. I want to say that being targeted

00:08:02.660 for standing up against socially crazy issues these days. I see myself as one of the first but there

00:08:12.920 have been many more and it is a very hard burden for everyone involved. If you speak out against

00:08:19.920 something your organization can get targeted and they didn't exactly bargain on that and so that was

00:08:26.480 fair. Now when I thought that I would run for I felt a call. I felt I was very inspired. I was inspired by

00:08:34.880 a transgender guy. I was inspired by somebody who goes to Ottawa and fights for laws to be put in place

00:08:43.240 for children to be taken away from their parents. That inspired me because you know what I had to ask

00:08:48.800 myself Sheila. What am I doing? I'm enjoying my lattes. I am enjoying my good life telling people

00:08:57.220 about God and how amazing this life is and we're in the best country in the world. I am enjoying my life

00:09:04.560 but there are some people who are spending their life to take away my freedom. The rights and the

00:09:13.420 freedoms that are guaranteed under the charter and they are living to alter culture while I am simply 0.90

00:09:20.100 existing and I see that that that is happening and when the you know when the Conservative Party of

00:09:26.800 Canada rejected me I was shocked. I was shocked. I had I have a picture that you know they like to put

00:09:34.420 all over Facebook of me and Andrew Scheer with a shirt on it and if you go in close what my shirt said

00:09:41.280 was for such a time as this and I believed that if I was called I was going to be running with the

00:09:48.120 Conservative Party but because I had spoken against something so simple as gender fluidity being taught

00:09:55.020 to little kids I was rejected and I've been the first one of many. That's true actually your story is

00:10:03.020 being told in one of my favorite Christian websites LifeSite who as we found out last week has been

00:10:09.500 removed from the Apple News app because they apparently are discriminating against LGBTQ people 0.83

00:10:18.380 based on some of the stories that appear on LifeSite which is absolutely ridiculous. It's just from a

00:10:26.900 Christian worldview but on LifeSite they're saying that they're reporting that multiple pro-family Canadians

00:10:35.740 are accusing the Conservative Party of blackballing their candidacies. Now as you've said that's

00:10:42.120 happened to you but it's happened to a lot of other people. Another candidate experienced much

00:10:50.940 the same thing you did over much the same issue. LifeSite has the story that says a long-standing

00:10:56.860 party member whose campaign in Bruce Gray, Owen Sound, Ontario had been building really really good

00:11:02.700 momentum was shocked that she had been disqualified but also that the party gave no reason for the

00:11:10.620 decision and the lady who is sacked is a Christian psychotherapist named Dr. Anne Gillies.

00:11:21.260 Gillies thinks that the reason they disallowed her was because she's been critical of transgender ideology.

00:11:28.900 Absolutely and I know Dr. Anne and I've done interviews with her and she is she is educated

00:11:37.280 she's experienced she's a standard she is courageous in this world of you either bow to the ideology

00:11:45.580 that has been set up or you face the furnace she's the type that she'll face the furnace and the 1.00

00:11:51.540 conservative party of Canada rejected her she's an educated Christian woman with values but her her book

00:12:01.220 is full of incredible data and studies and information and science on what we are facing in our world and

00:12:12.020 they would not run something like her someone like her and I had to come to the place where I thought

00:12:17.540 are you not the party that represents the grassroots people because they are lighting their hair on fire

00:12:24.020 they're lighting their hair on fire in British Columbia still over that SOGI you know the resources

00:12:29.300 that are in the school and they are lighting their hair on fire in Red Deer, Alberta and across Alberta

00:12:36.260 and we are talking to them and of course it doesn't take me long to begin connecting with those parents

00:12:41.780 who are very concerned and I've had people come up to me throw their arms around me in tears

00:12:48.180 thank you thank you for coming here to to Red Deer

00:12:51.380 well and you know it's it's not even about or exclusively about LGBTQ issues or trans ideology

00:13:00.900 issues the conservatives have rejected somebody like Salim Mansur a practicing Muslim himself

00:13:08.260 educated man the perfect kind of immigrant a person who came to Canada with nothing worked as a taxi 1.00

00:13:16.500 driver integrated and became an educated contributing member of Canadian society adopted Canadian values

00:13:24.980 he was excluded by the conservatives for running as a candidate and he was ultimately wisely scooped up

00:13:33.380 by the people's party and he said he was disallowed because of his criticism of radical Islam and the conservatives

00:13:40.820 were concerned that that could be construed as being Islamophobic despite the fact that Salim Mansur

00:13:46.660 is a practicing Muslim I mean if if we can't run a good guy like professor Salim Mansur who um is not a racist

00:13:56.980 clearly who is warning Western civilization there might be a problem here look what's happened in Europe

00:14:05.380 you need to address these issues you need to know that like uh Maxime Bernier recently said

00:14:11.700 not all societies uh embrace our values and not all societies are worthy of being welcomed into our land

00:14:20.740 because they do not bear our values and uh professor Salim Mansur Hamish Marshall he reported uh someone

00:14:27.780 who is high up in the conservative party was the one who said you know it's just going to um it's it's

00:14:33.060 going to it could you know be an upset we don't want to be called racist and all of that and um I have it on

00:14:39.380 good word and all I can say is if it's not true go ahead and sue me CPC but that there are um there are

00:14:47.380 other Muslim candidates being run in the conservative party of Canada and they are and have questionable ties

00:14:55.700 with the Muslim Brotherhood so if it's not true send me something but I have it on very good account

00:15:03.060 so how does the CPC run candidates with ties to radical Islam and refuse a candidate who is speaking

00:15:12.900 against it I don't understand Sheila what's happened I don't understand I I just shook my head and you

00:15:20.420 know scratched my head over wondering what has happened to our political system here in Canada and

00:15:27.060 of course I'm not running with them thankfully I'm running with the People's Party of Canada

00:15:31.620 and we are now running Professor Salim Mansur thanks to Maxime Bernier for accepting a candidate you know with

00:15:39.060 such prestigious he's got quite the record it's funny because I will get probably 20 emails after

00:15:50.660 this interview goes live from conservative party supporters who are saying um that I'm a shill for

00:15:56.820 the PPC and I'll probably get 20 other emails from PPC supporters saying Sheila you've got to come right

00:16:03.460 out and support us and endorse us and that's not my job as a journalist it's my job as a journalist

00:16:09.620 to be fair be critical of bad ideas and um and be supportive of good conservative ideas wherever I see

00:16:18.420 them at least that's what I see my job is as a conservative journalist uh you know uh if the PPC brings

00:16:24.900 forward a good idea great if the Conservative Party of Canada suddenly makes it mandatory for all um

00:16:31.060 universities in Canada to adopt the Chicago principles of free speech I'm going to champion

00:16:36.820 that too I find good ideas wherever they lay and and uh criticize bad ideas wherever they are too just

00:16:43.860 happens to be more often than not bad ideas exist in the Liberal Party um because if they had good

00:16:49.700 ideas they wouldn't be Liberals in the first place I want the Liberals out but you know what we we want to

00:16:55.620 stand for our values now and uh I mean I have tremendous respect for some of the members of Parliament

00:17:01.460 uh that have run with the Conservative Party uh MP Michael Cooper who was in Edmonton who recently

00:17:07.620 spoke out at the Justice Committee in defense of conservatism and uh he did it so adequately and

00:17:14.180 so incredibly and what happened to him when he is addressing a man you know who is uh you know

00:17:20.740 associated with radical Islam what happens to him he is forced to apologize and he loses his seat with the

00:17:27.780 justice committee with the Conservative Party Andrew Scheer brings this about um I don't understand what

00:17:34.660 is going on I really don't and it is not your job to be um to be on either side it is your job and you

00:17:41.620 are always fair Sheila and I know that you know you're probably gonna maybe you'll do some stories

00:17:46.660 on the PPC who I don't know what you'd do that would be negative but you might and uh and that's okay

00:17:52.500 that's okay that's okay we have to have this ability and we're losing this ability in free society

00:17:57.940 to speak what we think to um have free speech to have um the right to our own thoughts and conscience

00:18:06.500 and to our religious persuasions all of us should have that right as long as it's not inciting violence

00:18:13.300 as long as it is not domineering over another group in our society you know that uh brings me

00:18:20.660 to a story that I wanted to talk to you about um because it involves your friend Jen Smith

00:18:26.740 Jen Smith is a transgender person um who's been a vocal opponent of trans ideology being taught to

00:18:35.140 children Jen Smith Jen Smith spoke at I believe it was the UBC library um you'll have to uh clarify

00:18:43.940 it for me if I'm getting the details wrong but because of that UBC and the library is now banned from

00:18:54.740 participating in the pride parade there and it's all because uh Jen Smith was allowed to speak because 0.98

00:19:03.540 Jen Smith was allowed to exercise their free speech and even worse the prime minister has come out in 0.95

00:19:11.460 support of them blocking the library because the library allowed this trans identified person the right 1.00

00:19:21.700 to be critical of trans ideology it is bizarre the loop is crazy it is well you know they're turning

00:19:29.380 against themselves right uh you do have I have this already happening where um trans people and uh 0.91

00:19:36.020 lgbtq are writing me and saying you know we totally support what you're saying and what you're doing

00:19:41.940 uh but just don't mention our name because we don't want to be their next target well Jen

00:19:46.420 Smith a transgender uh person who um you know wears a dress and lipstick right has a deep voice

00:19:54.660 voice I love Jen I mean he's he is something else but the trans people they reject him because he 0.96

00:20:05.620 doesn't go according to their idea you know trans people are you know trans women are trans women

00:20:11.700 um but apparently they don't like that he speaks truth and common sense and that he studies the data

00:20:21.540 that he knows what he's talking about they don't like that and so they target him and yeah isn't

00:20:27.940 it crazy that so UBC doesn't get to be in the pride parade oh it's horrible I'm so sorry for you

00:20:33.940 but um you know you won't have to see nudity and all that kind of stuff uh it it is really nuts and it

00:20:40.180 should be an eye-opener I think this is what's going to happen Sheila is that we're going to begin to see

00:20:44.260 that um different uh people in society are going to um start to see that what they once supported

00:20:52.340 they actually can't support anymore because they're going to see the hypocrisy in the whole

00:20:57.220 thing and it's all going to tumble down because it's based on lies it's based on deception it's

00:21:02.900 based on perversion and going against um everything that is good and right and and going against our

00:21:09.780 values for that matter you know uh it's funny that you mentioned that there will come a reckoning

00:21:17.300 where there's I mean we're on a head-on collision between these can be competing groups of people

00:21:22.660 with rights and uh I think the Jonathan Jessica Yaniv case in British Columbia is for a lot of people

00:21:32.340 that reckoning where what was just an abstract idea about being um supportive of people's lifestyle

00:21:41.220 choices whatever those may be um that abstract idea is becoming uh reality as it collides with the

00:21:51.380 rights of female entrepreneurs to decline service to anybody for any reason because being forced to 1.00

00:21:58.820 enter into a contract um by the government that's sort of like slavery um but what's happening in

00:22:07.140 British Columbia is that Jessica Yaniv a trans person uh believes that it is their human right to receive

00:22:16.980 genital waxing from female entrepreneurs and a lot of people are suddenly realizing that creating these 1.00

00:22:24.820 protected classes of people who have these human rights that trump everybody else's is a problematic

00:22:31.700 thing and I think this case is a real eye-opener I hope it is and um you can tell that when uh Suzanne uh

00:22:41.140 Anton I believe that's her name uh she was part of putting together you know the the human rights

00:22:48.340 tribunals or um signing up basically for gender to be added you know to the list of um you know rights

00:22:57.540 and freedoms in Canada and she's come out saying they should never have accepted this case at the human

00:23:04.020 rights tribunal uh with Yaniv um you know stating that he thinks that that women should be you know having

00:23:13.300 to be exposed to his private parts when they they don't do that in their homes and they don't do men 0.98

00:23:20.500 and you're not a woman and so they know that and they do not want to wax any part of you and

00:23:31.060 Susan Anton is basically saying you know this should have been turned down this should have never gone

00:23:37.380 to any human rights tribunal so I think they should be abolished because they all have no sense

00:23:42.820 the human rights tribunal organization whoever decides on all of this you've got no wisdom

00:23:48.820 you don't know what you're doing you don't even know what's right or what human rights are

00:23:53.140 you don't even know how to protect real Canadians and you're really really um you've been shown to be 0.63

00:23:59.380 extremely horrible to women in this regard that you would think that this was even something that 0.53

00:24:06.660 should be adjudicated with the human rights trial I say that you get abolished and I say that every

00:24:12.500 um every you know you've had uh they've had several cases and they've had results from those cases and

00:24:19.780 all the results should be thrown out because you can't be trusted you are biased and this has basically

00:24:26.660 been set up to bludgeon a certain group of people and it's not okay and we're done with it and I think

00:24:32.820 there should be you know a huge social outcry to abolish the whole human rights tribunal thing going

00:24:41.620 on there yeah if I didn't know any better I would say that Jessica Yaniv is some sort of right-wing plant 1.00

00:24:49.060 designed to expose just how flawed the human rights tribunal process is but I don't think that's the case

00:24:55.380 based on the history like it's so surreal that maybe you know this can't possibly be real somebody

00:25:01.540 might think oh yeah you know this is put in there by a PPC person to take out the human rights tribunal no

00:25:06.900 it's a real person and I was just watching an interview with him on um on the uh the internet

00:25:14.820 and he's saying no I do feel that people have to do this and in fact I saw a tweet by another

00:25:21.540 transsexual Morgan Ogre saying that um everybody has jobs and they don't like doing certain things

00:25:28.020 and you have to do it so get over it get over yourself so that was a little tweet now

00:25:33.460 Morgan has come out very angry against Yaniv so has Blair White and some of the other um you know

00:25:39.940 famous transsexuals and um they're all like you say Sheila it's all caving in on itself and it's going 1.00

00:25:46.500 to it's going to get even worse now I wanted to transition into um something that is near and dear

00:25:54.420 to your heart near and dear to mine um uh Maxime Bernier has been the only politician and I wish

00:26:03.300 this weren't the case because I know there are a lot of um strong pro-lifers still within the 0.53

00:26:12.020 Conservative Party of Canada um but Maxime Bernier has been the only politician uh to come out and say

00:26:20.260 that the issue of abortion is not settled in Canada um and that you know we should be allowed to have these

00:26:30.740 debates within Canada especially when some 50 percent of people express some form of pro-life

00:26:40.260 sentiment and that number actually gets even higher when you start to educate people for example a lot

00:26:46.020 of people don't even realize we don't have an abortion law in Canada so

00:26:49.460 women can absolutely access late-term elective abortions in this country

00:27:00.580 that's right um to to the point of coming down the birth canal we have no protections for the unborn 0.95

00:27:07.060 none and you know Sheila in 1988 when this went uh the Morgenthaler decision went before the Supreme Court

00:27:14.180 of Canada um it was noted in their um you know their their output there that they said that the state

00:27:24.660 has a compelling necessity to care for the unborn um and to defend the unborn they have um the the word

00:27:35.220 compelling was used and after that nothing was ever brought forward I think maybe some attempts at all

00:27:42.820 abortion being abolished and that has not been successful at all and then nothing more and

00:27:49.300 it's been over 30 years and so it is time for the silence to end on that issue

00:27:57.860 well and as you and I were saying off air I I'm very proud of the conservative MPs who did go to the

00:28:07.140 march for life because unlike the um members of the PPC and their candidates the ability to express

00:28:17.220 a pro-life sentiment within the conservative party is very strongly controlled for those conservative MPs

00:28:24.580 and um there's quite a few of them that attended the march for life although there's a lot of them

00:28:31.140 from Alberta um not a lot of other places um for them to go to the march for life and be openly pro-life

00:28:37.780 you know they're swimming upstream within their own party so you know guys like Arnold Vearson,

00:28:43.860 Dane Lloyd, Glenn Motts, Kevin Sorensen, Phil McColeman, uh Dave Van Kestrin, Bev Shipley,

00:28:49.860 Harold Albrecht, Ted Falk, Brad Trost and Senator Norman Doyle um I just want to thank them for their bravery

00:28:57.220 of being open up front pro-lifers inside the conservative party because that has got to be

00:29:04.500 pretty darn hard I do I do as well honor them and thank them for standing for the unborn um that is

00:29:13.700 an amazing thing and they are to be commended for that um it is a sad thing that in the conservative

00:29:21.140 party right from the top Andrew Scheer twice in the last month has declared and stated that the

00:29:26.580 Canadian people do not have to uh worry that they will the conservative party will not be opening

00:29:33.620 the debate on abortion and therefore I don't know what uh that means for MPs to me it sounds like he's

00:29:41.220 saying don't bring it forward we're not reopening this this is not an issue that the conservative party

00:29:48.500 is going to deal with and I think that that is very alarming and personally um I I don't know how

00:30:00.900 they expect to hang on to the grass the grassroots supporters who have conviction to the core of their

00:30:07.940 being about life about God creating life and I don't know how those people are expected to continue

00:30:17.460 to vote for a party that is abandoning those grassroots principles and I'm seeing that uh it's going to

00:30:24.740 have a very negative effect on the voting record in October well and I I don't think this is just a

00:30:32.340 religious issue because there are a lot of people who are maybe not particularly pro-life or it's not

00:30:38.820 something that they think about every single day that they're not religious people they're not um you

00:30:44.420 know in my case Catholic or whatever um but they see this as a freedom of conscience issue and they

00:30:52.340 see this as a an issue where we are supposed to be different than the liberals on this the liberals

00:30:58.340 have mandated that all their MPs be pro-choice and the conservatives have de facto mandated that all

00:31:06.580 their MPs have to shut up on the issue and not say anything and so how does that make them any

00:31:13.460 significantly different than the liberals on this issue the conservatives are and when I say

00:31:19.860 conservatives I'm saying small c conservatives now just people with conservative ideology we pride

00:31:25.300 ourselves on the fact that we are happy to have discussions on issues that we don't think there are

00:31:33.220 topics that are off-limit that we believe in the free and liberal exchange of ideas and that facts don't

00:31:39.380 care about your feelings and those sorts of things and when when the conservative party is saying well

00:31:46.420 the debate is closed on this that seems to me antithetical to small c conservative principles

00:31:54.340 well and uh it's upsetting and you're absolutely right um I recently just uh had an email from somebody

00:32:01.540 saying that they're atheists but totally supportive of my pro-life stand that there's just something

00:32:07.540 intrinsically in them that feels that you know a society that is sophisticated and not barbaric

00:32:14.260 does not kill its young whether in the womb or outside of the womb uh that you don't do that and so

00:32:22.100 it is a matter of conscience and why is it why is there such anger and vitriol from uh from those who

00:32:30.340 just don't want to discuss they want it shut down and why is the cpc government deciding that they will

00:32:38.020 cave into that kind of social pressure um being called names today you have to be able to accept that

00:32:44.740 if you're going to run in public office or be any kind of justice warrior in our culture you're going

00:32:52.420 to have to accept that people will call you names and you're going to have to become very very comfortable

00:32:56.580 with that and I have and I don't care what you call me I don't care what you threaten me with um bring

00:33:03.380 it on this debate if it has to come under fire then it needs to be raised under fire because life is

00:33:12.660 important and that is important to our society's structure of being caring empathetic people never

00:33:21.940 mind if we do believe in God or not we're just good people and atheists love to say that this I don't 0.75

00:33:27.540 need God to be moral and some of them don't and I love it we just need to know that freedom of speech

00:33:36.180 freedom to debate conscience issues should not be dead in a place like Canada that is more like

00:33:42.500 North Korea or a place where you are not allowed to speak or have your own mind or have your own 0.50

00:33:47.940 thoughts that is not Canada and it's time for this to be opened well and you know that brings me to

00:33:55.300 another topic that I had on my desktop open for you and I to talk about and that was the um liberals uh

00:34:02.740 they didn't want the movie unplanned which tells the story of a uh abortion worker who became pro-life

00:34:14.180 after being inside the machinery of that industry um they didn't want that movie to be shown in Canada

00:34:21.940 and it's it's a movie I mean if you don't like it don't see it the movie will fail and it'll no one

00:34:29.140 will ever watch it but they can't even they don't even want Canadians exposed to the other side of 0.98

00:34:37.380 this story let people see the movie let people make up their own minds but the liberals I mean

00:34:45.860 they were adamant that if you saw this movie you were attacking women's rights even though you were

00:34:52.260 literally attacking my right to see a movie that I so choose it it really was North Korea-esque

00:35:01.060 it it really was and here in this movie the woman has had two abortions it's a beautiful movie about

00:35:07.620 redemption nobody needs to feel uh terrible if they've had an abortion to go and see it everybody

00:35:13.620 needs to have information um you know a lack of knowledge makes us really unwise in our society

00:35:21.540 if we don't actually understand uh what is going on how can we make valid decisions informed choice

00:35:29.140 is a better way for us to proceed with um you know the abortion agenda going on if if women um feel that 0.99

00:35:37.540 they need an abortion well then by all means have the information available to you um so that you

00:35:44.260 understand uh babies uh their size when the heartbeat starts how incredibly formed they are even when

00:35:51.940 they're little tiny you know tiny little things in your womb how that baby all it's not actually the 1.00

00:36:00.500 the woman's body I object to that it's their own body being housed in your body that's it it's not your body 0.66

00:36:09.380 alone you now have had the extreme privilege of being able to carry someone else's body I was just 0.97

00:36:18.020 talking to my 29 year old son and um and we were kind of you know talking about this issue and it is

00:36:26.900 very precious he is nothing like me he's not me he is so opposite that we've been like at times you know

00:36:36.420 and I love him he's incredible he's his own person and he was his own person from the womb

00:36:43.460 when we have information about what is going on about the money issue that has to do with

00:36:49.300 abortion and I'll tell you what is offensive to women is that the link between abortion and breast 1.00

00:36:56.020 cancer is not out in the open I I feel that is offensive to women and I saw this other movie called

00:37:04.260 hush and it was about uh women's um the you know the correlation with abortion and many many of the

00:37:14.260 issues that women uh face today and the fact that doctors don't pronounce that and that that's not out

00:37:20.500 there that's wrong it's an offense to women now we're recording this tuesday afternoon but by the time 1.00

00:37:29.060 this goes to air the people's party of canada will have made a very consequential and ultimately

00:37:37.140 controversial although it shouldn't be announcement uh would you like to talk about that i would i would

00:37:45.700 um i'm very excited to say that uh paul mitchell who is running in red deer mountain view riding just

00:37:53.140 south of red deer and myself um have a full uh bill a motion for a bill to be presented to end late

00:38:03.700 term abortion and we are prepared that at first opportunity with with maxine bernier's um help

00:38:12.580 and with his approval that we will be able to if elected put that forward in parliament and put the

00:38:20.820 very first law in canada in place for the protection of the unborn and um i am very excited about it i

00:38:31.060 am hopeful that uh also um as of today i don't know the case we have extended this to the conservative

00:38:39.460 uh members of parliament that are already the members and we have asked them uh one of them is very

00:38:47.460 uh has you know stated that he's pro-life we've asked him to come on board and to support this

00:38:53.700 and so that it would be a guarantee that anyone from the red deer area who gets in whether re-elected

00:39:00.340 or voted in as a new people's party uh member of parliament will present this bill um it's enough of the

00:39:08.260 silence we don't care about being called names babies are worthy of our protection and any society

00:39:16.900 that does not protect its most vulnerable and helpless members is given over to being barbaric

00:39:25.380 and it's not okay and we just want to stand and we love all women i support women i support informed

00:39:33.060 choice i do support the little women who are in the womb who also need to be protected small men

00:39:42.660 and small women who are not fully formed who as well need protection because they can't protect or speak 1.00

00:39:51.220 for themselves and so a woman by this bill it's very reasonable sheila um you would have up to six 0.99

00:39:59.780 months basically to decide if you want to have that abortion or not you still have all rights all we're

00:40:06.340 saying is late term abortion that baby is moving and kicking and wanting to live and actually can be

00:40:14.420 viable outside the womb and so we believe on that level it's very reasonable to expect protection for 0.77

00:40:21.860 that child you know it is astonishing the firestorm you're about to walk into um because you are going

00:40:30.260 to be painted by the mainstream media as extremists and isn't it remarkable that the mainstream media

00:40:38.980 perspective of a pro-life extremist is somebody who says these are viable human lives outside of the womb

00:40:50.260 and we don't want them broken into pieces sucked out of a woman's body and then incinerated for elective 1.00

00:40:58.180 purposes that's the state of affairs in canada right now when you lay it out that way that is the state

00:41:04.420 of affairs the you're talking about babies past the point of viability um and i also think it's going

00:41:11.140 to be very interesting to see if you will get any of that across party lines support because i think this

00:41:17.300 really is um a conservative issue but also just a human decency issue um you are going to be called an

00:41:24.420 extremist when really the extremists are the people who are okay with that procedure that i just described

00:41:30.820 right and you're right uh limb from limb you know ripping a little baby uh and we know that they can

00:41:38.420 feel pain actually that is you know known by doctors i saw read an article on that and you know they can

00:41:44.980 feel pain and what we're going to do is we're just you know we think it's totally fine to do all that and

00:41:50.740 and then be very angry very angry at any man or woman who stands for the protection of that child

00:41:56.740 i mean god forbid that we're bludgeoning baby seals right those same people who will be calling me names

00:42:03.140 will just be up in arms that we would bludgeon a baby seal on the on the ice right um and so i don't

00:42:12.100 care what you call me i care about those babies i care about morality i care about civilized society

00:42:22.260 and i will not be part of being barbaric and sick and evil to turn our our ears to be deaf and our eyes 0.51

00:42:32.180 to be blind to the plight of the unborn and it's happening too much in society i don't respect it i can't

00:42:38.900 stand it i won't vote for it and i intend to do my part in life to do what's right for that and

00:42:47.780 it uh it doesn't matter what the what the price is it just has to happen and i believe i'm supported

00:42:54.900 by millions and millions of people in this nation and we don't need to be silent and we do not need to bow

00:43:02.900 you know that is one thing i think people are silent because they are frightened we they see

00:43:10.100 every day how the media treats um pro-lifers they're like i said they're painted as extremists we

00:43:17.380 can't even show a pro-life video in this country or a pro-life movie in this country without it being

00:43:22.260 deemed somehow controversial we can't have conservative mps um marching at the march for

00:43:29.460 life reflecting the views of their constituents by the way without them being called anti-women and

00:43:36.340 and somehow hateful and oppressive and backward um loralin i i gotta tell ya 0.78

00:43:46.900 maxime bernier to his credit has allowed you and paul mitchell the prospective mp and not the shampoo guy

00:43:56.340 uh to bring forward this motion um it's something we would never see in the conservative party of

00:44:01.940 canada and it makes me sad because i know there are so many good pro-lifers and not just pro-lifers

00:44:09.220 but people who believe in freedom of conscience still in the conservative party and and for those

00:44:13.940 people who are inside the party i i really feel like they need to lean on their leadership to allow

00:44:19.540 them that freedom right and you know maxime bernier um he he is on he's on a challenging courage uh

00:44:27.540 trajectory because do you know i mean he's been uh a pro-choice he's voted pro-choice and and the cpc

00:44:35.540 loves to just throw that oh isn't he the guy he voted pro-choice how how can you you know go with him

00:44:41.460 okay but andrew sheer has voted pro-life and shut it all down so the fellow that's voted pro-choice

00:44:47.940 because he's more libertarian um is now the guy who's saying well because how it happened sheila he

00:44:54.260 was in quebec and they began to push him on this issue of abortion and quebec uh apparently they

00:44:59.780 have the most abortions of anywhere in the country and they began to push him on this issue because

00:45:04.580 they are a highly pro-choice uh group right and um so when they pushed him on this issue he said you

00:45:11.220 know well i voted pro-choice well well what do you think about uh you know um abortion you know late

00:45:17.540 term and he said well you know if it's two days before the baby is born i don't think that that's

00:45:23.380 right i don't think that you should uh you know be murdering a child two days before it's born well

00:45:30.100 the the press blew up it was in all the papers i didn't know a thing about it because it's all

00:45:34.900 written in french then um uh we gathered in colonna for a ppc gathering and maxime bernier there

00:45:41.940 was there and he said oh logalin because that's how he says my name logalin i'm in so much trouble

00:45:48.820 in quebec i said why why are you in trouble well i said you know it's murder if it's you know two

00:45:55.060 days before the baby's born i said you did you said that you said that out loud i said mr bernier

00:46:01.860 can you say that in english so that we can hear that in english as well to take that stand and then

00:46:09.140 it was just you know within a few days that he was speaking in english they you know it kind of

00:46:14.340 crossed over into the english section and he was dealing with it and here's the thing he called it

00:46:18.740 infanticide and murder and he said this debate has got to be open in canada here is a man who's going

00:46:26.660 to be also called names he's going to be put down you know what we all don't care we're we're not evil

00:46:32.980 people we're not you know serial killers i would say the serial killers are the ones doing all of

00:46:40.260 these procedures on women that's not okay that's not okay and so we are the ones who are standing for

00:46:47.620 civilized society saying hey of all things can we just protect babies we just love babies we'll take

00:46:53.780 your baby do you know what sheila i'll end with this because i'm sure we've probably gone over time

00:46:58.340 um there was a young gal and she was getting an abortion she was pregnant with twins and

00:47:05.940 i heard about her through another young woman and this girl was too young to have babies she didn't 1.00

00:47:12.180 she couldn't support and now it's twins and i remember i pulled over to the side of the road and

00:47:16.900 i said will you please give her a message let her know i'll take your babies me and my husband we will 0.87

00:47:24.260 adopt your babies just carry them um we can work out arrangements please just please carry these

00:47:32.420 babies twins it just broke my heart i was on the side of the road and um she couldn't see it she told

00:47:39.380 the girl no no i can't no you know can't do it and i never forgot that i never forgot knowing that

00:47:46.980 i'd do anything like i i'll do it i'll care for them i'm past you know wanting to have little kids but

00:47:53.860 i would have done it and um it's time to care about the unborn it's time to care about babies we're not

00:48:01.300 evil people for caring about babies for god's sake you know for humanity's sake let's all have a debate

00:48:11.060 come to a reasonable uh conclusion and have a reasonable law that's it that's it

00:48:16.580 uh loralin i hate to change lanes on you again after such a poignant statement but i wanted to

00:48:25.780 ask you just to address one concern people have before we go uh and it's something that i've seen

00:48:31.620 online and i'm sure you get it quite a bit so i'm probably sure you have a pretty good answer for this

00:48:35.940 but people will say and have been saying that she's not from alberta she's just a carpetbagger who's been

00:48:43.860 dropped in to hold a place in alberta so that maxime bernier can say that he's running a lot of

00:48:50.980 candidates all across the country and that you're not from here and you're certainly uh you're certainly

00:48:57.060 not albertan and you don't reflect our values how do you address that concern well i know one thing for

00:49:03.220 sure that alberta is the last hope for canada if alberta does not use this opportunity to seize the day

00:49:10.740 in this next election and vote in a prime minister um who will stand for life who will stand against

00:49:19.860 radical political islam who will stand against the bludgeoning of our freedoms and our speech 1.00

00:49:27.060 then we have no hope because alberta is the heart of conservatism you are my people you are

00:49:34.260 you have and hold dearly the values that i hold dearly and i could not find that in bc and i went

00:49:40.340 up against jagmeet singh and i got called a racist by him and i'm fine i'm totally over that now but

00:49:47.140 i looked across the land and i said who are the people that actually value the heart of of what we

00:49:54.580 once held very very dear in the entire nation who are the traditional standards who love family values who

00:50:02.420 care about social conservative issues i looked everywhere and it's in alberta and so i came to

00:50:09.380 the people who i hope will embrace me so i haven't grown up here but i know you and i know your eyes

00:50:17.780 and i see your eyes and i know you're upset over what's happening in the land and i know your heart

00:50:24.740 and i love your heart and i'm here because alberta is the last hope for this nation it is the most

00:50:32.820 conservative part and if you will i'm here to fight for maxine bernier i'm here to fight for the people's

00:50:38.100 party of canada if you'll embrace a leader who is willing to stand for our values then we can turn

00:50:43.220 this nation upside down if we do not if we do not i don't know i don't know something's very very wrong

00:50:54.340 in the other parties and i i also want to add one final thing i love rod taylor he's with the

00:51:00.500 christian heritage party and he gives me a little bit of a hard time because he's also a large party

00:51:07.460 he's a he's a party you know he's a full-fledged party and i honor rod taylor because those things

00:51:12.980 that we've been talking about sheila life uh the protection of our land fighting against radical islam 0.77

00:51:18.820 the christian heritage party also does that i happen to be running for the people's party

00:51:23.540 and i'm very proud to run with maxine bernier he's amazing he's courageous he's taking heat and hate

00:51:30.980 like i've never seen but some of the things he said the other day when he said with his immigration

00:51:36.340 policy being reduced from you know uh 250 000 to about 100 to 150 000 150 000 capped um and he

00:51:45.460 said we should be bringing in persecuted christians from muslim um countries i thought that was amazing 0.99

00:51:52.740 and of course he'll be called names we all will it's time to stand and i am urging canadians

00:51:58.820 and especially albertans please embrace me i embrace you

00:52:02.820 well i you know the issues that as you point out that we're talking about they do span political

00:52:10.260 parties these are cultural issues um and luckily enough for you you're in a party that allows you

00:52:16.660 to speak out so vocally laurel and i want to thank you so much for coming on the show you're always

00:52:22.340 so generous with your time um and you're always so passionate about these issues and hopefully we can

00:52:29.140 catch you again along on the campaign trail and laurel and's conservative competition if you're

00:52:34.900 watching this you're always welcome on the show i'd love to talk to more conservative politicians

00:53:27.140 let me say i'm a huge fan of laura lynn's conservative party of canada competition

00:53:32.740 in her riding of red deer lacombe i'm a big blaine cockins fan he is so strong on firearms rights and

00:53:39.700 so strong on his advocacy for rural alberta and rural canada i mean who could not be a fan of a

00:53:45.700 politician who while criticizing the liberals attacks on lawful canadian gun owners said this

00:53:52.580 if the liberal leader wants my guns he can pry them from my cold dead hands in fact if i'm recalling

00:54:01.620 correctly blaine cockins made finger guns while standing up to vote to repeal the liberal gun

00:54:07.380 registry a few years back cockins was also under fire by the ndp the liberals and academia for simply

00:54:14.500 stating a scientific fact to a room full of school children cockins said whether or not you think carbon

00:54:20.500 dioxide is pollution or not is i still think a question cockins is cheeky unafraid and albertan

00:54:29.220 through and through in fact he's sort of my kind of politician and i'm going to send him an email

00:54:34.100 and see if he'll come on the show i'd really enjoy that interview so wish me luck like i said my skype
