Rebel News Podcast - DAILY ｜ Are the convoy protests working？

00:00:00.000 Good afternoon, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Rebel News live stream on this

00:00:20.840 a Tuesday, February the 8th, 2022. I'm David Menzies and my co-host, well, let me tell

00:00:27.660 you about my co-host. She's the reason why I'm not watching the Beijing Winter Olympics because,

00:00:33.520 hey, she is a platinum medalist when it comes to getting the truth out there. She is the she-devil 1.00

00:00:39.620 with a sword. She is the Khaleesi of Northern Alberta. She is Sheila Gunn-Reed. How you doing

00:00:47.040 there, Sheila? Sheila, I'm so sorry, but we have a technical difficulty. I don't know if you can hear

00:00:51.400 me, but I cannot hear you for some reason. Ah, that's because I had my microphone muted. That's

00:00:58.280 fine, because when you called me, I went upstairs. Like, when the office called me, I went upstairs

00:01:03.100 to get a coffee, and I thought, they don't need to hear me rummaging around my house, so I put my

00:01:07.000 microphone on mute and then forgot to bring it back on. But what I was saying was, David, I have

00:01:12.620 missed your introduction. You know, while you were gone, everybody, every woman needs someone

00:01:21.260 cheering for them the way you cheer for me. Well, it's so wonderful to know that there are some

00:01:29.020 women that welcome my presence as opposed to running the other way from me. But what's wrong

00:01:34.720 with Adam Seuss? Why can't he do the, you know, the five-star introduction for you? You are certainly

00:01:40.840 worthy of it, Sheila Gunn-Reed. Nobody does it like you do, David. Now, wasn't that the name of a song

00:01:47.520 in the 70s? You know what, I'm sure that's the first time in your life anybody's ever said that to

00:01:52.240 you. You are correct. I know that I am a lot smaller than David in real life, but I feel like we are not

00:02:02.000 to scale currently. David looks like the Hulk. No, don't make me bigger. Make David smaller.

00:02:07.600 Yeah, I look like the Hulk when in reality, I'm more like Ant-Man. So, you know, if we can

00:02:15.600 fool around with that, but- Swamp thing.

00:02:18.800 Enough chicanery, Sheila. It is so busy. We have a topic sheet here. Holy mackerel. I don't know if 1.00

00:02:25.440 we'll get around to even half of these, but also a heads up, I believe Premier Scott Moell will be

00:02:31.360 having a presser. I think it was the start a few minutes ago, but, you know, these fellows are

00:02:37.660 always late, especially Justin Trudeau. I mean, he has an arduous commute. One flight of stairs

00:02:44.440 down that cottage of his, you know. Three steps.

00:02:49.360 I know. Always at least 20 minutes late in his own house, right? But in any event, why don't we very

00:02:56.920 quickly get to the housekeeping rules that you're so good at stating, Sheila, in terms of what we're 1.00

00:03:03.120 trying to do here and why we might have to port away from YouTube at some point?

00:03:09.520 Sure. And the day, today, the news, there's so much. So we've got an announcement from Scott Moe.

00:03:16.000 Jason Kenney just tweeted a few minutes ago that the return to normal in Alberta will be announced

00:03:21.920 at five, but he put if in, in like his tweet, like if pressure continues to decline on hospitals,

00:03:29.560 we might have the best spring ever. Sure. And, and we have the guys, if we've got a news about a

00:03:40.740 liberal, finally, finally, the first one breaking ranks with the party over lockdown restrictions.

00:03:44.900 And the first one to say that, hey, maybe we actually should listen to the hundred thousand

00:03:50.120 people that showed up on our doorstep to tell us what they think of us. Maybe we should maybe just

00:03:54.380 go out there and listen to them. And we've got just breaking just moments ago, news about Pastor

00:04:00.500 Art Poloski. So, yes. So we want to get to that. We're just sorting out the details now. We've already

00:04:06.460 got lawyers engaged as we tend to do with Pastor Art. So we'll get to that right away, but I'll get the

00:04:11.800 housekeeping stuff out of the way right away. And I'll do it as quickly as possible for our regular

00:04:16.020 viewers who get annoyed that I do this every time. But I have to assume that some of you are new.

00:04:21.440 Thank you for being with us from the very beginning, but we're getting new friends all the time.

00:04:27.120 Okay. So this is the Rebel News daily live stream. It used to just be on YouTube, just on Fridays,

00:04:33.920 just hosted by Ezra. But then the pandemic struck, there's more news than ever. So we expended it to

00:04:40.180 five days a week. The problem though, with YouTube is that they are now a censorship platform. They

00:04:45.740 demonetized us and they put this whole host of crazy rules about things we can't talk about. Things

00:04:51.260 that you could talk about on NBC or CNN, but if Rebel News says them, ah, gone from the internet

00:04:56.580 forever, just pretend like we don't even exist. So we don't want to abandon YouTube. We are broadcasting

00:05:02.340 on actually now four other platforms simultaneously. So when we get to a point on YouTube, when we are

00:05:10.400 going to say things that will get us canceled, we just cut the feed altogether. And we encourage

00:05:14.060 the people watching us on YouTube to maybe come over to another platform that doesn't care about

00:05:18.140 your politics, like Odyssey, Rumble, and Super U. And all three of those give you a way to support

00:05:24.420 the work that we do completely willingly, instead of like what Justin Trudeau does with the mainstream

00:05:28.620 media. He just reaches into your pocket and he's like, here, you guys are making stuff nobody wants.

00:05:33.120 Here's some money for that. And we're also live streaming simultaneously on Getter,

00:05:39.680 which is new for us. But Getter is the free speech alternative to the censorship platform

00:05:45.680 of Twitter. And I've made a commitment to spend a little bit more time on Getter than I do on

00:05:52.120 Twitter, because why am I giving Twitter my gold for free? So I'm going to start spending a little

00:05:57.660 bit more time over on Getter. And that those are the nuts and bolts. Now, Mr. Producer AD tells me

00:06:03.340 that Scott Moe, he's live now. Do we want to go to that? Oh, and there's Kelly.

00:06:13.460 Hello, hello.

00:06:14.180 We're having some audio problems with Premier Scott Moe, but I see our friend Kelly,

00:06:30.660 our Saskatchewan-based journalist and Saskatchewan analyst, let's say. She's joining us

00:06:37.940 to give us some expert analysis on what Scott Moe has to say. So maybe cut back out. I hear his audio.

00:06:45.120 Hello. How is everyone today? I look giant here.

00:06:48.220 I look giant here. Jeez, jeez.

00:06:49.460 ...transmission of Omicron like it via your previous variants. And I will continue to encourage

00:06:54.560 everyone and anyone that is eligible to go out and get vaccinated. Your first, your second,

00:06:59.980 and ultimately your booster dose. As vaccines most certainly do provide significant protection

00:07:05.100 against serious illness from Omicron or any other variant. However, if someone makes a different

00:07:10.680 choice about whether or not they are vaccinated, that's their right. And this government is going

00:07:16.340 to respect that right. Today, with Omicron, the benefits of the proof of vaccination policy

00:07:22.560 no longer outweigh the costs. This policy most certainly has run its course. So it's time for

00:07:28.440 us to take a step back in living with COVID and to get, to make every effort to get our lives back

00:07:34.160 to normal. It's time for us also to heal the divisions in our communities over vaccination.

00:07:40.380 Those divisions are in our families. They're, yes, they're in our communities, but they are

00:07:44.380 across our province and they're across this nation. It's time for us to come together as families,

00:07:49.460 as friends, as, as communities and as a province and as a nation. And it's time for us to reach out

00:07:55.200 and support one another. Let's not judge our neighbor because they may be vaccinated or because

00:08:00.980 they may not be vaccinated. Let's not judge our neighbor if they should choose to wear a mask or

00:08:06.440 not to choose to wear a mask in the weeks ahead. Whenever someone is doing their own personal risk

00:08:12.320 assessment, which we have asked them to do in this province for a period of time now,

00:08:15.680 they're doing that assessment for themselves, possibly for their family, and they may come

00:08:21.320 back with a, a different decision than what you might arrive at. And that different conclusion,

00:08:27.460 albeit maybe different from where you have landed, should not be judged. It should be respected

00:08:33.480 and it should be accepted. It's time for each of us as individuals now to make a conscious effort

00:08:40.100 to treat everyone in our daily lives that we encounter equally. It's also time for the

00:08:45.520 proof of vaccination mandate to end. So effective at midnight this Sunday, February the 13th,

00:08:50.820 all provincial proof of vaccination requirements will end. In Saskatchewan businesses, in venues and

00:08:56.900 provincially regulated workplaces, this means that the proof of vaccination or the negative test option

00:09:02.100 that we provided will no longer be a provincial requirement. Starting on Valentine's Day, February the

00:09:08.540 14th, this will be the case. This will leave one remaining COVID measure in place and that is

00:09:14.540 indoor masking. That measure remains in effect until the end of February. I want to thank all of the

00:09:21.160 businesses and the venues and the workplaces who have shifted course throughout this pandemic to

00:09:25.400 keep their employees and to keep their customers safe. And all of those who implemented and administered

00:09:30.420 the proof of vaccination or proof of negative test policy over the course of the past few months.

00:09:35.620 Thank you for doing your part in our fight against COVID. And again, I want to thank everyone who made

00:09:43.420 this choice. It is a wise choice to ultimately go out and get vaccinated. You are keeping yourself safe.

00:09:51.900 As we move into this next phase, the phase of now living with COVID, I would ask you to continue

00:09:58.720 to make wise choices. This is paramount to our success. Go get your booster dose if you haven't already.

00:10:05.620 Stay home if you're not feeling well. Do a rapid test from time to time. If you do test positive,

00:10:11.400 we want you to stay at home for five days. But let's all in the meantime also get back to living our

00:10:17.300 lives normally and doing the things that we all love to do. And let's all make that extra effort

00:10:23.800 to be just a little more understanding of others when we may disagree.

00:10:28.740 In fact, this may well be our largest challenge in getting our lives back to normal in our in our

00:10:34.640 families, in our communities, in our friendship groups and in our province. We must realize that

00:10:40.000 it's okay for us to disagree. We do hold strong opinions in this province and those are on full

00:10:44.980 display often. But we can disagree without being disagreeable. Don't lose a friend to COVID.

00:10:52.200 You might have to take some time apart, but keep that door open. Time and time again, Saskatchewan

00:10:59.440 people have proven that we achieve great things when we come together and when we work together.

00:11:04.820 And when we accept those who may have a different opinion than we do. And when we respect others'

00:11:13.700 individual decisions. We are poised to lead this nation through COVID and we are poised to lead the

00:11:21.140 world in an economic recovery in this province. So let's work together. Let's work together to heal

00:11:28.260 some of the divisions. Let's understand that we can forgive our friends, our family members, maybe even

00:11:34.020 ourselves, if that is necessary. Let's work to heal those divisions. Let's come together and let's

00:11:39.380 once again be ourselves in our communities. This is a great province. This is a united province.

00:11:44.900 But most importantly, this is a tolerant province and we are going to need all of that tolerance in

00:11:48.900 the days ahead. It's time for us to move. Thank you. Dr. Shahab, do you have some comments?

00:11:55.700 Thank you, Premier. I'll just clarify a few things. I think that's good.

00:11:59.300 That obviously vaccines remain available 5 to 11 per second door.

00:12:03.300 Yeah, I don't need to listen to the public health necromancer tell us about vaccines for kids. I'm good.

00:12:10.180 Yeah, look at this ridiculous man. You could tell. I could tell his politics by his mask. 0.99

00:12:16.420 Um, but that was phenomenal. That was great. And that is a politician acknowledging that this has not

00:12:24.420 just separated people because of the biomedical police state, but this is politically separated

00:12:31.940 people that families are divided now over the issue of vaccine passports, social distancing.

00:12:39.220 This is cracked families and societies apart. And he's right to call for tolerance. I don't want to

00:12:46.900 see somebody like I just gave that guy a hard time because he's just sitting there wearing a mask in

00:12:51.460 a press conference eight feet away from the next person. So I'm not the best person to be talking

00:12:56.500 about this. But at the same time, yeah, if you see somebody who wants to live in fear and drive

00:13:01.380 around in their car with a mask, I might just have a little chuckle to myself, but I'm not going to yell at

00:13:06.820 him. And, uh, I, I hope that the same goes the other way. And I think that Scott Moe feels the same

00:13:12.900 way. Well, Sheila, I'll take, um, you know, the end of proof of vaccination mandates over a dozen

00:13:21.700 roses on Valentine's day, any day. Um, and, and a month of course, as a premier Moe said, uh, no more,

00:13:29.060 uh, indoor masking. It looks like the, what do you call them? The necromancer. I wonder if

00:13:34.740 his mask comes off anytime soon, but you know, uh, I see we are joined, uh, by our Saskatchewan

00:13:44.020 correspondent, Kelly Lamb. How you doing there, Kelly? And since you live in that province,

00:13:48.420 what's your take on the premier's announcement? Well, I'm all smiles right now. Um, even though

00:13:54.900 I didn't get such an incredible introduction as Sheila did, I'm a little insulted, but otherwise

00:13:58.580 I'm in a great mood. Uh, this is fantastic news. I was live when he made the announcement that he was

00:14:04.340 going to eventually make this announcement. And I was excited then, but a bit shepherded issues

00:14:08.020 because you don't know what's going to happen. He's lied a couple of times. It was very vague.

00:14:12.100 And then he kept announcing that he was going to announce it and he would announce it again. And

00:14:16.100 here we are finally with a resolution of some kind. So I'm pleased. And like Sheila said, I'm very

00:14:20.820 pleased to see that not only is he addressing the logistical elements, but he is addressing the

00:14:26.020 societal elements and how this has affected people and telling people to be kind to each other.

00:14:30.580 Now I will say to hold him to account, he was not so kind, uh, in the beginning. I've called

00:14:35.540 him out on that a couple of times as I'm sure other rebels have. Uh, I think it was December 7th.

00:14:39.940 He spoke about D taking away the stigmatization of the Vax. And that was the first time we saw him

00:14:45.460 sort of turn a corner in his language before that. It was very much, we're sick of this. You know,

00:14:49.860 we don't have the patience. It's not, we're not asking you to go to Normandy. We're just asking you

00:14:52.820 to get a needle. It was very degrading. So it's nice to see that he has shifted, 0.92

00:14:56.980 turned a corner. And now that has led to action, which is extremely good for this province. And

00:15:01.620 oh, he is going to take flack for this from the media. So he better be prepared in the weeks to

00:15:05.700 come. And ladies, let me throw this out to you. I want to get your point of view. I might be wrong,

00:15:10.660 but you know, the detractors of the freedom convoy say, aside from these truckers and their

00:15:16.740 supporters having a big temper tantrum and honking horns, what have they tangibly accomplished in the

00:15:23.620 almost two weeks to be in here? Exactly, Sheila. I think you see provinces moving to end the

00:15:28.980 mandates. I think this was the catalyst for Erno Toole getting kicked out of caucus. I think it was

00:15:35.060 the catalyst for Pierre Poliev finally throwing his ring back in for the leadership of the Conservative

00:15:41.940 Party of Canada. Am I wrong here or are we seeing tangible benefits? No, it's one of those rare times

00:15:49.300 that you're right. I'm kidding. We watched Jason Kenney go from we're rolling restrictions back

00:15:58.500 at the end of March to, oh, maybe we're going to do it at the end of February to we're going to do it

00:16:03.380 in a couple weeks from now, which would have been like Valentine's Day to he's making announcements

00:16:07.780 today about rolling restrictions back immediately. And that timeline didn't just jump back 60 days

00:16:15.620 because the science suddenly changed or things suddenly changed in hospitals. The political

00:16:22.580 climate changed. And I don't even think the political climate changed. I think there was a

00:16:28.740 tangible manifestation of how people are really feeling taking place in a convoy. It's easy to say,

00:16:34.460 well, I think people are feeling that way or the polls are showing this. But when you have entire

00:16:38.620 Canadian communities dumping out onto the highway to show support for a convoy that has no intention on

00:16:44.580 ending and a growing blockade in Coutts that has turned Milk River into the biggest town in Southern

00:16:51.220 Alberta, where farmers are engaged in civil disobedience once again here in Alberta, that can spook a lot of

00:16:59.860 politicians. Like the second the convoy landed in Ottawa, Scott Moe was like, you know what, we're opening

00:17:07.620 up science, science, follow the science, we're following the science and science. Science says

00:17:14.260 we got to open up when it was clearly, clearly, clearly the convoy the very day it landed in Ottawa.

00:17:19.540 That's the day he made an announcement. And I know because Kelly was on air with me when it happened.

00:17:24.420 I do think it's kind of weird, though, his timeline, because Valentine's Day, you will be kissing

00:17:29.940 through a mask because indoor masks are until the end of the month. So that's weird. But whatever,

00:17:36.020 there's a lot of people who will do that. We've seen it.

00:17:38.740 And I want to ask Kelly, you know Saskatchewan better than Sheila and I, of course, being there.

00:17:44.180 If you were to commission a poll, for example, on what Premier Moe just announced,

00:17:50.580 does this get majority thumbs up or thumbs down?

00:17:55.300 Well, like with other places in the country, it very much depends on where you are. So if you're in

00:17:59.780 rural Saskatchewan, even though, generally speaking, a lot of people are vaccinated, most people,

00:18:04.500 the rural folks don't want to throw their neighbors under the bus for not being vaccinated. They still

00:18:09.060 want to be normal. It's your decision. It's a much more common sense thing, generally speaking.

00:18:13.300 That said, the fear has gotten to people as well in Saskatchewan. And it was surprising to me how much,

00:18:18.100 but it depends on, of course, I guess the demographics and whatnot. But I find in general,

00:18:22.500 people here have been less toxic, less caustic to each other over this. And so for me, I think this is

00:18:28.660 going to be big because a lot of people just said we're doing it because Scott Moe said so.

00:18:32.980 And when you ask people their reasoning, whether it's employers in the sort of industry

00:18:37.460 sort of side of it, or whether it's more governmental agencies, most of them have done

00:18:41.220 it because the higher up said to, and the higher up does it because the next higher up says to,

00:18:44.660 and so on. It's only being done because he sanctioned it. And so a lot of these people

00:18:49.380 are going to be relaxing just because he said they can. And I've already seen this happen at my

00:18:54.100 mother's condo, people that were very staunch and very afraid. And they put down the strict mandate,

00:18:59.060 and they were very cocky about it. And as soon as he said he was going to lift it,

00:19:02.340 it just took one person in that senior's condo to say, hey, maybe it's time. And they thought,

00:19:06.100 well, Scott Moe did it. We'll do it. And so I think that's really what's going to,

00:19:08.900 it's going to come down to you. People in Saskatchewan are caring for each other. We're

00:19:12.740 the type of people that raise more for, you know, tell a miracle every year than other places. We're

00:19:16.500 the kind of place that started universal health care. We are not cold to other people's needs.

00:19:21.940 And I think what happened was just a massive propaganda campaign of telling people that

00:19:26.740 there's only one way to care about your neighbor, and that is to get the vaccine and then shun

00:19:30.740 other people if they don't have it. Thankfully, most people didn't fully get on board, but it is

00:19:34.820 going to be a shift. And we do have a lot of people that will be mad. The NDP are going to be

00:19:39.940 really upset about this. But I think for the most part, from what we're seeing at protests and stuff,

00:19:43.940 the counter protesters to the convoy and whatnot are pretty small. It's pretty minimal. So if you read the

00:19:49.380 MSM, you'll see a different view. But generally speaking, people are done. And I think they're

00:19:53.540 ready to move on. And they don't care whether their neighbor is vaccinated or not. So that's

00:19:57.780 what I'm hearing in general. Well, you know, I got to tell you, I think you're right, Kelly. And

00:20:02.100 of course, what is the NDP not upset about? And I got to tell you, after spending the weekend

00:20:08.420 in Ottawa, just got back last night, I felt like I was on a time machine. I went back in time to 2019.

00:20:14.340 Nobody was wearing masks, even into restaurants, the few in the downtown core that were open.

00:20:20.180 People were so friendly. There were hugs all around. Haven't heard anything of downtown

00:20:24.660 Ottawa becoming a super spreader for any of the various variants of the coronavirus.

00:20:32.500 So, you know, Sheila, let's get back to normal. I got to tell you, the last few weekends,

00:20:38.980 I've been watching the NFL games. Again, it's like a different universe. A stadia that seat almost

00:20:45.220 80,000 people, no masks. They're sitting cheek to jowl, no social distancing. And when you look at

00:20:52.100 whether it's Kansas City or Tennessee or Los Angeles, there's no spikes in the coronavirus.

00:20:58.740 What is holding up all the other provinces from getting online as of right now to get back to

00:21:08.020 normalcy? Politics. We are run by a bunch of people who have never done anything genuinely

00:21:16.980 good for another person in the world. And so this is my non-scientific, just my own observation of the

00:21:24.660 world. The desire to hang on to masks and restrictions and distancing and vaccine passports 0.91

00:21:32.340 is driven by and large by the most selfish people in the world who have never done anything for

00:21:39.860 anybody else. And so they have this thing that shows that I'm just like a hero. I'm a hero because

00:21:47.700 I wear this mask and I'm saving lives. And so when you take this away from them, this thing that says that

00:21:53.940 you're a hero, you're just like a police officer, um, when you take that away from them, they go back

00:21:58.820 to their life of mediocrity and they don't like that. They're going to hang on to it with both hands.

00:22:04.740 And, uh, you can, that's what the, I think there are going to be a lot of people who are wearing that

00:22:11.860 mask and hanging onto restrictions and stomping their feet as a symbol of their own virtue that they

00:22:18.820 don't normally have in other times. They're not the kind of people who shovel anybody's walks for

00:22:24.020 funsies. You know what I mean? Well, I think you're right, uh, Sheila, but here's the thing,

00:22:28.260 when it comes to the COVID Karen community, um, we're not forcing you to go and sit unmasked in a

00:22:35.780 restaurant or an arena or a movie theater. If you want to stay at home and get Uber Eats to bring your

00:22:41.780 food in, uh, you know, morning, noon, and night and leave it on the porch and never have any kind

00:22:47.380 of physical human contact, you can do that in the technical, technical, in the technical world that

00:22:53.620 we live in these days. And I, so in other words, if you want to remain, uh, isolated, that's your

00:23:00.820 choice to do so. We're not forcing people, uh, to get back to normal if they kind of dig that. What's

00:23:05.940 your take on that Kelly? That's where I'm at as well. Uh, I think Sheila had it bang on. Um,

00:23:12.660 there's definitely a virtuous element of look at how much I care about everybody else. And I have

00:23:18.980 to say it perfectly echoes the voice of Justin Trudeau last night when he was just basically

00:23:24.260 telling people 10 different ways of how to care for each other, but not really telling anybody how

00:23:28.980 to care for each other. It's just such fluffy language and people are stuck into the fluff of all

00:23:33.540 this. And unfortunately wearing a mask is an easy way to just, if you, like you said, Sheila,

00:23:37.060 if you don't want to do any hard labor, um, or charitable action or sacrifice of the self

00:23:42.340 for the world, uh, or your community or others, this is a great way to just throw something on and

00:23:46.900 you can take a picture of yourself and you can hashtag it and tell everybody how wonderful you are.

00:23:51.300 And I do think there's going to be people that have found way too much power with this,

00:23:54.740 as well as the bully hall monitor types that will not want to let go because they've been given

00:23:59.140 this sort of social license now to act the way that they've always wanted to, but have had to

00:24:04.100 sort of keep it at bay to sort of fit into society. So I think that it's going to be an interesting

00:24:08.740 shift in the coming days, um, weeks and months, and maybe years. This is so far reaching when it

00:24:13.860 comes to masks. We're dealing with kids and we're dealing with speech stuff. We're dealing with

00:24:17.620 relational stuff. We're dealing with economic stuff. The fallout of this medically, financially,

00:24:22.020 socially is unprecedented. And it's going to be really amazing to watch what the next few months have to

00:24:28.340 bring, I guess, but it's, um, this is a great place to start. And I'm happy to see that Saskatchewan is

00:24:33.140 returning to some fashion of common sense, which I thought we were. And then we weren't for quite

00:24:37.140 a while. And he was diving into all the rest of the rhetoric. And now it feels a little more like

00:24:41.060 you said, David, I get this sense of, ah, right. That's why I used to be so proud to be Canadian.

00:24:46.340 When I watched stuff in Ottawa, or when I watched people here doing their, their protests,

00:24:50.500 it's, um, it brought back a little something that had kind of died in me, to be honest. So this is,

00:24:54.820 this is a good start. It's a good start. And you know, Kelly, it was very rich indeed to see,

00:24:59.780 uh, the prime minister talk about how we should be caring for each other while in the same sentence,

00:25:05.060 vilifying and demonizing, uh, the truckers and their supporters, uh, of the freedom convoy.

00:25:10.980 And like I said, I spent four days in Ottawa and you know what, uh, didn't see any toppled statues,

00:25:16.260 didn't see any broken windows, wasn't ducking from Molotov cocktails, uh, being tossed, didn't see any

00:25:23.460 hate. Uh, these people, even when encountered with counter-protesters were so friendly, so nice,

00:25:30.740 salt of the earth, real Canadians, um, having a peaceful protest. If you believed what the 1.00

00:25:37.060 government was saying and the mainstream media, uh, my goodness, you would think this was really

00:25:42.980 a hate fest going on in Ottawa. The precise opposite is true. And I see the Ottawa police are now

00:25:49.380 amping up their demonization of the protesters too. Um, it's really, like I said, really rich to see

00:25:56.980 the prime minister, uh, talk about all you need is love when he's the biggest vilifier in Ottawa right

00:26:04.900 now. Yeah. You know, uh, I, I think we're going to jettison from YouTube just to be on the safe side.

00:26:11.220 So if you are watching us, uh, on YouTube, might I suggest you move over to getter,

00:26:15.860 rumble odyssey and super you and rumble odyssey and super you. Why don't you send us a chat, um,

00:26:21.780 uh, support the work that we do. And we will read that on air. Mr. Producer will send it to me in a

00:26:26.660 message and we will read it on air and do our best to address your query question, concern, comment,

00:26:31.700 or story idea. Yeah. You know, speaking of Justin Trudeau, he talks a lot about caring. And as you know,

00:26:38.180 the best way to care about your neighbor is to use the full force of the police state to encourage them

00:26:44.420 to freeze to death by confiscating their fuel and arresting people, bringing you food and water.

00:26:50.260 That's the best way to care about your neighbor. It's like every time that he claims to be an

00:26:55.780 anti-racist activist, another picture of him shows up wearing blackface, or he claims to be a feminist

00:27:01.860 and he fires another prickly woman for standing up to him. These liberals, they talk a good game, 1.00

00:27:08.580 but all you have to do is look at their actions about, uh, 90 minutes later and they're doing

00:27:15.620 something completely different. Justin Trudeau literally campaigned on division and hate. Um,

00:27:25.140 Scott Moe, he's making a lot of comments about unity right now. And I think he's having a little bit

00:27:31.140 of a mea culpa because he said, we've got to find a way to forgive our friends, our families,

00:27:38.580 and even ourselves. And I think he's talking about himself there. Um, and, and speaking about

00:27:48.260 politicians who are having a bit of a come to Jesus moment, uh, Adam and I were talking yesterday

00:27:53.860 about, um, how there's literally nobody in the liberal caucus whatsoever who's breaking ranks

00:28:01.460 with Justin Trudeau and saying, we don't necessarily have to agree with the protesters,

00:28:07.380 but since they, you know, drove all the way across the country and they don't seem to be leaving,

00:28:12.740 maybe we should figure out what they want. Maybe we should go out and talk to them. There's one

00:28:19.140 liberal MP who's saying these people have concerns and they deserve to be heard. Uh,

00:28:27.220 we wrote it up for the website. I don't know if it's been published yet, but maybe Mr. Producer,

00:28:31.540 if you can find the, uh, yes. So we've got some clips here. This is MP. He's a Quebec liberal MP,

00:28:40.340 uh, Joel Lightbound, I think is his name. And, uh, he's saying, you know, we, we,

00:28:48.260 there are cracks in our communities. Uh, the way we've dealt with the pandemic has,

00:28:53.380 and he acknowledges it caused mental health issues due to job loss, family division,

00:28:59.060 and people out there deserve to be heard. So why don't we roll this clip?

00:29:04.980 I've heard from people worried to see those they care about fighting each other on this issue,

00:29:11.380 tearing some families and some friends apart. I've heard from a lot of people wondering why just a

00:29:17.940 year ago, we were all united, all in this together. And now that we have one of the most vaccinated

00:29:25.060 population in the world, we've never been so divided. Now, these people are increasingly confused

00:29:32.500 when on the other hand, they hear experts like Dr. Carl Weiss, a renowned Quebec epidemiologist,

00:29:38.660 state last week, and I quote, that COVID-19 is here to stay, that those at risk will have to be

00:29:44.660 monitored closely when symptoms appear, that we will have to protect our healthcare systems,

00:29:50.580 but that we will also have to live with the virus like we do with influenza, that we can't go back

00:29:55.780 to lockdowns and restrictions not supported by science. They're confused when they hear Dr. Tam

00:30:02.180 state last week that all existing public health policies, including vaccine passports, need to be

00:30:08.740 re-examined, and that we need to have longer term sustained approaches and capacity building,

00:30:14.900 so we're not in crisis mode all the time as we fight this virus.

00:30:18.180 Wow, that's my kind of liberal. You know, ladies, what are the- 0.94

00:30:26.660 There's like one good one left.

00:30:30.420 What are the conversations happening right now with this Quebec-based Liberal MP, with Justin Trudeau,

00:30:40.100 and the rest of caucus? I imagine this is, to say the least, a career-limiting move for him.

00:30:51.300 I don't know who's going, but I would say so. I would say so. I don't envy him, but I applaud him.

00:30:57.060 Like you said, that's actually a kind of a classical liberal sort of response. Imagine that. Imagine

00:31:02.580 that. Imagine if there was that much sanity in the overall Liberal Party, just what a different world

00:31:06.900 this would be, or a different candidate it would be. But yeah, I can't imagine this is going to be

00:31:12.020 something that's going to just projectile him into the next level of fame within the Liberal Party.

00:31:17.620 I think we could see him on his own soon enough. We see enough with the Conservative Party. I can't

00:31:22.580 see how the Liberal Party is not going to do this as well. So good for him, though. I applaud anybody,

00:31:27.700 even if it's a little late, and they're a little late coming to the party. I think we've all said this.

00:31:31.700 Welcome. We'll give you a hug anyway. We wish you were here sooner. But it's nice to see,

00:31:36.020 and it's really nice to see, because this is not a partisan issue. And I've said it.

00:31:39.940 Ezra's pointed that out. This basically could be a political party. They have more

00:31:43.460 actual support, really, from the Canadian public than any one party. So this is not a partisan thing.

00:31:48.740 This is about human beings. This is about people that want some bodily autonomy. And I have met all

00:31:53.300 kinds of hippies who love natural health stuff. I've met people that are very conservative. I've met

00:31:58.260 NDPers, Greens, all kinds of people that think this is nonsense. This is not a partisan thing,

00:32:02.580 and there's no need for our politicians to make it as such. And I appreciate and applaud

00:32:06.740 this gentleman. So yeah, I think he's going to get kicked out of the party before the day's over.

00:32:12.420 If I were Candace Bergen, I would be reaching out to him and saying, you know what, there's no room

00:32:16.900 for you in the Liberal Party. Why don't you cross the floor? The Conservatives could use some good,

00:32:23.940 reasonable, freedom-minded people. And who knows even if he's freedom-minded, but he seems to think

00:32:31.620 that his party has handled this grossly. So maybe if I were Candace Bergen, I would be reaching out to

00:32:38.900 this guy, because I don't think he's going to survive the day. I think he's going to be out on

00:32:43.620 his ear with the truckers outside, being ignored by the Liberal Party, just like they are for the day's

00:32:49.700 over. And just to put it into context, this guy is not a nobody. He was first elected in 2015.

00:32:58.340 And he's served, I think, in at least two different parliamentary secretary roles during that time.

00:33:05.940 And currently, he's the chair of the House of Commons Industry and Technology Committee. So he does

00:33:10.740 see how this lockdown has hurt the Canadian economy. So maybe that's what drove him.

00:33:19.460 Maybe it's his moral conscience. But what I do know is that it was obviously immensely hard for

00:33:25.620 him to break ranks with the party today, because everybody around Justin Trudeau is keeping their

00:33:30.100 mouth shut and supporting him while he ignores this huge chunk of Canadians. Because Justin Trudeau

00:33:35.860 seems to think that he's the prime minister of only the people who voted for him instead of all

00:33:40.340 Canadians. You know, and Sheila, you raise a really good point. Do you think this individual

00:33:45.060 has already had discussions with the Conservative Party? Could be.

00:33:49.220 I mean, the last time there was a floor crossing, I think it was, what, 2018? It was Leona Alislav,

00:33:56.740 my MP. Well, at least until September of last year. And, you know, these things,

00:34:03.860 you know, I don't think when you make that statement or make any kind of condemning speech,

00:34:09.220 you haven't already, you know, packed a parachute, so to speak, that, you know, so maybe this is,

00:34:16.260 you know, a fait accompli, as they say, or he's going to sit as an independent, who knows. But it is so

00:34:24.420 refreshing to see someone in government speak in a non-thought-controlled manner by, as ordered by

00:34:34.820 Prime Minister Justin Trudeau. So, yeah, you're right. Let's see how the day goes in terms of him

00:34:41.060 being disciplined or even ousted. And I guess, you know, we, speaking about getting disciplined,

00:34:47.380 we must turn our attention to our friend, Pastor Arthur Pawlowski. You've got to be kidding. He's

00:34:55.380 being arrested already? Again? Yeah. Well, we were having the morning staff meeting. A few of us got

00:35:05.940 a message saying that Pastor Art had been arrested. Sounds like he was arrested, someone will correct

00:35:11.860 me if I'm wrong, on mischief over $5,000. I think that's what it was. We don't know what that was,

00:35:18.580 but Ezra did get a phone call from Nathaniel, Art's son, and we do have Ezra's video on that,

00:35:28.100 so why don't we roll to that, please? Maybe we're not ready. Okay, just one second. So anyways,

00:35:39.700 if people want to see all the details, Ezra's tweets and his video, they can go to savearcher.com

00:35:45.940 for all your Art Pawlowski needs and news, and you can support his legal defense there,

00:35:51.540 because Sarah Miller has pretty well made Art Pawlowski her full-time job. Sarah Miller from

00:35:57.300 JSS Barristers. Between the crackdown on Pastor Art for the crime of feeding the homeless, which the

00:36:04.100 city of Calgary called an illegal public gathering, to Alberta Health Services, trying to bust into his

00:36:10.900 church during services to do an inspection, to get in court injunctions prohibiting him from speaking,

00:36:18.100 to him being found in contempt and then issued compelled speech orders that required him to give

00:36:23.700 the government's line, the Pfizer salesman line on vaccines and restrictions. By the way,

00:36:32.420 sounds like Scott Moe would be in violation of that court order if that court order had applied to him,

00:36:38.340 because the science has somehow changed from when Pastor Art was slapped with a compelled speech order

00:36:44.020 to today when restrictions are being lifted. And that's the problem with all of this stuff is

00:36:48.340 what could get you canceled six months ago is government policy today. And that's been

00:36:54.980 the story of Pastor Art. He is continually arrested in these high-profile El Chapo-style takedowns,

00:37:03.220 be it at the airport or on city streets or on the highway leaving a protest as he was last week when he

00:37:10.180 was leaving a anti-lockdown protest in Leduc, Alberta. And today, the police converged on his

00:37:18.100 house to prevent him from going to Coutts, Alberta, to speak to the blockade protesters there. So maybe now

00:37:25.860 we have that video. Okay. Ezra Levant here from Rebel News. I just got a phone call from Nathaniel

00:37:31.220 Pavlovsky. That's the son of Pastor Arthur Pavlovsky. He told me that his dad was just arrested at home in

00:37:39.060 Calgary. He said there was an undercover police van staked out, surveilling the family home,

00:37:46.260 and that they grabbed his dad, Arthur Pavlovsky, arrested him and took him off to jail. There were

00:37:52.340 some other police cars there apparently too, stopping him from going to speak to the trucker blockade

00:38:00.820 down in Coutts, Alberta. The Calgary police literally arresting a Christian pastor who was planning

00:38:08.260 on speaking to a peaceful protest. This is not the Canada that you thought you were in. This is an

00:38:14.420 authoritarian Canada that's verging on a police state. I spoke with Sarah Miller, the lawyer for

00:38:20.980 Arthur Pavlovsky. She has dispatched her criminal law colleague, Chad Haggerty, to see how quickly we can

00:38:27.780 get him out of jail. If you want to help crowdfund those excellent lawyers, I know them both, they're

00:38:32.260 outstanding. Go to savearthur.com. That's save-a-r-t-u-r.com. Hopefully we can get him out of jail right away.

00:38:39.780 This was clearly an attempt to stop him from expressing himself politically to these truckers.

00:38:46.500 Go to savearthur.com. You know ladies, this is astonishing and what this reminds me of is the 2002

00:38:55.700 Tom Cruise film Minority Report. It depicted a future society in which the police had something

00:39:03.460 called the pre-crime unit. With the help of psychics, they would get a pretty good idea,

00:39:10.660 but not 100% accurate, of a citizen that might be, could be, wants to commit a crime and they would

00:39:20.580 arrest him before the crime is committed. Therefore, the name of the unit, pre-crimes unit. That's this!

00:39:28.020 They've got cops going to the pastor, arresting him for the pre-crime of his intention to go down to

00:39:38.020 Cootes, Alberta. This is fictional, or I should say science fiction becoming today's reality 20 years

00:39:46.660 later here in Canada. I am astounded. Go ahead, Kelly.

00:39:54.100 This is one that I just, I mean, we continually hear his name coming up and some people like to

00:39:58.340 think of him as a nuisance, or well, he's asking for it and they don't like his provocateur nature,

00:40:02.980 and people have all their reasons for hating on Pastor Archer, and none of them matter.

00:40:07.060 His personality and whether you think that you could go out for coffee and enjoy time with this man are

00:40:11.060 irrelevant. There's also a lot of Christians who like to argue that he's going against God,

00:40:15.060 and if you really cared for your fellow man, and if you really love Jesus, you would get vaccinated,

00:40:19.140 and you would say the script, and you would do what all the politicians are doing. And it's quite

00:40:22.900 alarming to see the mentality, because what I see is a man who's just trying to warn this country on

00:40:28.340 every front, whether it's standing and trying to feed the homeless, or whether it's, I mean,

00:40:31.860 how many times now have we seen him? It's like they're just waiting for him to mess up,

00:40:36.260 and when they don't have anything legit, they'll get him anyway. And I have seen many cases of really

00:40:41.380 despicable things happening, and people doing horrible things, sex crimes, etc, that do not

00:40:46.100 get politicized this much, that do not get this much hate. For a man of God who really is feeding

00:40:51.700 the people of Calgary and taking care of those who nobody cares about, like the people you were

00:40:56.180 talking about, Sheila, that just want to wear a mask and say they're saving the world, but would 0.70

00:40:59.620 never do anything. They're not out there doing what Archer's doing. They're not feeding the homeless.

00:41:03.220 They're not feeding those addicted to meth. They're not feeding those without anybody and any support

00:41:08.340 system. This is not an easy thing to do, and he should have been left alone from the get-go,

00:41:13.140 but instead we've had multiple charges and incidents, and he gets shamed and embarrassed,

00:41:18.020 and it's really quite despicable legally, but also socially, and the media complex, as always,

00:41:23.780 has disappointed and been pretty gross on this. So I'm always curious to see where this will go.

00:41:29.140 He's an extremely resilient man, I'll say that, and his spirit never dies, and he's so desperate to

00:41:34.580 get Canadians to see the truth, and people really need to start listening to people that come from

00:41:39.460 other places that are maybe a little less free than here. We're becoming everything that these

00:41:44.420 people fled, and he's been trying to tell us that for how long now?

00:41:49.460 Yeah, Sheila, what are your thoughts? I mean, I don't think there's any there there. I mean,

00:41:55.460 the idea of the police pre-arresting him for something he might do or said he did,

00:42:01.300 or said he was going to do, but hasn't actually done. How does that make any sense? I mean,

00:42:07.300 that can't be a, you know, something worthy of a prosecution in my mind.

00:42:15.220 You know, the police use these loose mischief laws, or rather I should say abuse these loose

00:42:22.580 mischief laws and the loose definition of mischief all the time. It sounds like they're doing this in

00:42:28.420 Ottawa, where they are arresting the people who are bringing gasoline, a diesel, sorry,

00:42:34.820 their big rig, so the diesel, to the truckers under this accessory to mischief charge because

00:42:44.100 they think the truckers are committing mischief by honking their horns. So by extension, like,

00:42:49.460 it's just, if you see somebody charged with mischief, realize that it's a catch-all. And it sounds like

00:42:54.900 the police are really pushing their luck here. We don't have all the details yet, but you know,

00:42:59.700 it's funny because you'll see, you'll see people justify the state targeting Pastor Art over and over

00:43:08.100 again, because they disagree with something he said, or they disagree with his theology,

00:43:14.260 or they disagree with the way he practices his faith, as though that's any justification to send

00:43:20.420 the police to your house and arrest you like this for a pre-crime. Pastor Art and I have probably

00:43:28.020 theological disagreements, but I will fight for his right to hold those beliefs and express them

00:43:35.700 in a way that he sees fit without being hauled off to jail like this. This is ridiculous. So, you know, 0.97

00:43:43.380 it's funny how people will say, I believe in free speech, but then Pastor Art said this, this,

00:43:49.060 and this, and this. And so I don't care if you got arrested. Well, then you don't believe in free

00:43:54.100 speech at all because you don't believe in it for your enemies. It's just like, for example,

00:43:58.340 a lot of people don't know this, but we actually, um, allow, we at Rebel News, we gave a lot of our, um,

00:44:06.820 arguments to a small left wing union linked publication to help them get access to the

00:44:15.540 Alberta legislature, because we had made those legal arguments and we heard that they had been

00:44:21.860 blocked by the Alberta government. And we thought, no, if we believe in free speech and free press for

00:44:27.700 us, then we have to believe it for our political enemies too. And probably our social enemies, you

00:44:33.700 know, like I, I, I think that those people would cross the street to avoid me. Um, but we gave them

00:44:39.460 our legal research. Now, did we get a thank you? No, actually they went on social media and said some

00:44:45.220 unkind things about us, but that's not the point because we're better than them and we know it.

00:44:49.220 And that's, that's what it means when you believe in something, you just don't believe in it for

00:44:54.660 yourself. If it's a, if it's a moral and ethical viewpoint that you hold, it can't be situational.

00:45:01.540 It has to be for everybody. Sheila, you raise a really good point in terms of the political,

00:45:06.020 uh, question here. I'm just wondering who do you think is really behind this? What I would say is

00:45:12.580 vindictive and petty harassment of pastor art. It, I don't buy that it's the Calgary police service

00:45:20.660 acting organically and independently. So who is behind this, uh, jihad against pastor art, Sheila?

00:45:29.700 He's embarrassing the Alberta government all over the world. So if he goes to this place where the

00:45:38.020 world is watching the truckers and the farmers fight for freedom, he is going to continue to

00:45:43.620 embarrass them on an international scale because all eyes are on pastor art. Um, and so obviously this is

00:45:52.180 Alberta health services one more time, um, under the new health minister, Jason Copping. And of course,

00:45:58.660 a healthy helping of, uh, Calgary tyranny. Um, I think this new mayor is even worse than the old

00:46:07.300 mayor. Jodi Gondik is obviously, she's even more progressive than Nahid Nenshi. And Nahid Nenshi, 0.85

00:46:14.580 his dislike for pastor art was more than political. It was personal. And I think that is carried on now

00:46:21.860 going forward. And I think it's only going to get worse for art, not better.

00:46:24.980 And you know what, what is perversely amusing is the more they harass him, the more they arrest him,

00:46:31.620 the more they cart him off to jail, the more international news emerges about their, um,

00:46:38.100 strides and affect people. Yep. It's it. They never learned Sheila. They never learned now with about

00:46:44.420 15 minutes left. Uh, Sheila, I I'm assuming we have some chats to get to.

00:46:49.060 We definitely have a pile of chats to get to. And, uh, we, there's a bunch of stuff we didn't talk

00:46:55.540 about. Um, but, um, I'm sure we'll get to it. Um, if we have time. Okay. Let's go back. Sorry.

00:47:03.140 Oh yeah. There are quite a few here today. Um, okay, here we go. We've got one from Harper will

00:47:14.180 always be my PM because it's five bucks. I was 100% expecting when truckers hit Toronto,

00:47:20.980 that Doug would also claim he was, is this from today? No, that's yesterday. Sorry.

00:47:28.420 That's no, this is yesterday. Sorry. I'm just sorting through. Thank you very much.

00:47:35.540 There we are. No, no, I don't see it. David ad lib something, please. Will I try to sort out

00:47:44.340 what's going on my computer? Um, Kelly Lamb, what are you, what are I, I forgot, uh, I apologize to

00:47:50.420 get it over to you. Your thoughts on what is going on right now with, uh, pastor art.

00:47:56.820 Well, I think I said probably most of it at the beginning, so I'm probably not the best person to

00:47:59.860 say, but I've always got more to say when it comes to the stuff that's going on in this country

00:48:04.100 and the direction that we're heading. I know that a lot of it was AHS and Kenny, but I do put

00:48:08.980 Trudeau at the helm of this. I know that people like to say, oh, you just always want to blame

00:48:12.660 Trudeau, but he has really started the rhetoric and given social license to these politicians across

00:48:18.660 the board and to the various health services to just, like I said, it's whether it's citizens or

00:48:23.300 whether it's, you know, people in authority, the bullies are getting away with whatever they want.

00:48:27.940 They have this thing. It's like, they're excited. They finally, we get, we get a chance to do what we

00:48:31.860 want. And that's what I see with pastor Archer. So I see it from the cops. I see it from the AHS

00:48:36.260 and I see it from just the overall sort of tide, the way the tide is turning in Canada. And I also

00:48:40.820 can't help but comment on something that seems like a million years ago because so much has happened

00:48:45.860 with all of the COVID stuff, but all of the churches that burnt across the country and how so many

00:48:50.580 investigations were just closed and how nobody seems to care. There's just this, this continuous

00:48:56.020 theme now where we're starting to see Christian persecution creeping up in the West. And it's really quite

00:49:01.220 alarming. And I don't think this would happen. I genuinely don't think this would happen with most

00:49:05.460 other faiths and I'm not trying to play the victim, but there's a current trend. It's undeniable against

00:49:11.860 the Christian faith and people that are believing in Christian values, whether it comes to gender

00:49:16.260 bills or anything else, we are demonized. And I think that's a huge part of the undercurrent that

00:49:20.180 needs to be brought up with pastor art as well. And you know, Kelly, the B word bully, I think you're 1.00

00:49:24.980 really onto something here. And what makes these types of bullies worse than bully classic is the

00:49:31.300 fact that when you're a bully in the bureaucracy, you are untouchable. You cannot be fired. You cannot

00:49:38.340 be disciplined. In fact, they probably got a raise during the pandemic because that seems to be business

00:49:45.380 as usual in other jurisdictions. They just fail upwards and it's reprehensible. And I'm not sure what the

00:49:52.660 solution is to that issue. Sheila, are we back with the the chats now?

00:49:58.820 Yeah, I figured out where I was and what I was doing there. I just was looking in the wrong chat.

00:50:05.860 I was looking in the one from yesterday with Adam and I. So we've got Annalisa, 1964, who,

00:50:12.180 as I always say, has David Menzies in the bloodstream like an AstraZeneca clot.

00:50:17.380 Uh, she gives us 20 bucks and she says, my two favorite people, this must be before Kelly got

00:50:24.020 on the stream. Um, she says, I just wanted to thank you and all the rebel team for exceptional

00:50:29.540 reporting. Oh, and I must not forget looking mighty fine today, David. Uh, and Sheila, you're gorgeous

00:50:35.940 as always. I love how I'm just always the afterthought, but I get it. I get it. I get it. I get it. I see what

00:50:41.620 you see, Annalisa. I really do. Yeah. But you know what? Sheila, always the devil's in the details.

00:50:46.100 When she said, my two favorite people, I think she meant Kelly and you, my friend.

00:50:51.700 Well, well, thank you for including me. That was very kind. Such a nice guy, David. He's such a nice

00:50:56.820 guy. I can see what Annalisa sees as well. Yeah. Thank you, Annalisa.

00:51:00.980 Fraser McBurney, five bucks. Loving his cap locks as always. He says over 50,000 Americans have died from

00:51:07.300 COVID jabs. That means over 5,000 Canadians have died from the COVID jabs and the vaccine mandates.

00:51:12.980 Now, uh, I rude Dick gives us five bucks. Beware of the Saskatchewan premier. He may be doing away

00:51:22.820 with the Vax Pass, but they are still implementing their EID program. Just another way to deny you

00:51:30.100 driver's license, photo ID cards, and passports. Um, I have filed for access to information on the

00:51:36.660 Saskatchewan electronic ID, um, because I just want to see what it entails. There's a lot of people

00:51:42.180 jumping to conclusions. And I am one of those people who genuinely thinks that, um, when government

00:51:48.900 does something, they mostly almost always have sinister motives, but I just want to see what that

00:51:54.100 entails. Is it just like where they are merging, um, some of your government ID with your health card

00:52:00.820 and your, uh, Saskatchewan insurance, because you guys have like Saskatchewan SGI, right?

00:52:08.820 So is that what they're doing? Yeah. So is that what they're doing to just make it like all in one

00:52:13.260 place or is this something else? So before we jump to conclusions, let's just wait and see

00:52:18.020 actually what they say they're going to do. And then I'll file for what they were talking about doing,

00:52:22.640 because those are often two different things also. So, um, let's just, uh, wait and see.

00:52:28.600 Uh, John Entwistle gives us, uh, 10 bucks. Will Trudeau pull out the family's martial law card

00:52:35.300 again? Well, they did in, what was it? 1970, uh, the War Measures Act. And, uh, there's that famous,

00:52:43.640 uh, uh, quote by Trudeau when asked by a journalist, how far, uh, do you plan to go? And I think his

00:52:49.660 answer was just watch me. So, um, yeah, uh, maybe it's a matter of ladies of, uh, like father, like son.

00:52:56.820 Oh, I thought they meant the Castro martial law card. I didn't know what family we were talking

00:53:02.340 about there. Oh, very confusing. Understandable. Mixed. Um, joyful from the heart, a dollar. Is

00:53:12.240 it possible Rebel News could ask Polyev why he supported Trudeau's false condemnation of

00:53:17.160 anti-Semitism, Islamophobia, anti-Black, et cetera, in the protest? I like him, but this is troubling.

00:53:23.420 I didn't know that he supported that, but I do know that the conservatives, um, after that motion

00:53:29.940 asked the liberals to condemn the use of blackface. Um, I think Arnold Beerson did that, uh, top tier

00:53:38.140 trolling Arnold, by the way, and the liberals did not because how could they, right? Isn't that amazing?

00:53:44.560 And by the way, our, uh, is Pierre on speaking terms with us? I think he could be. Okay. We

00:53:52.340 should reach out. Why don't you reach out, David? Okay. Yeah. But you know what? We don't need his

00:53:58.360 approval or even real contact with him to do our job. We'll hold him to account whether he likes it

00:54:02.940 or not. And you know what, Polyev? I think people will convoy you just as fast as they convoyed

00:54:09.120 Justin Trudeau. So just, you know, Canadians are a different breed these days. Um, Cuba bound 1.00

00:54:16.620 gives us a buck. Is this another two weeks scam? Why not drop all mandates and emergency orders now?

00:54:23.080 Yeah. I'm interested to see what just Jason Kenny does today because he's like, if hospitals remain

00:54:29.020 blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. I'm like, ah, you got the, the uncertainty in there. So you can just

00:54:33.600 sort of walk that back instead of cross my heart, hope to die. Swear to God, stack of Bibles. No 0.98

00:54:39.660 problem. Best summer ever. Oh, lockdown to fall. Come along. So we'll see. You know, I always scratch

00:54:46.280 my head about this. Like if you are going this direction, just say effective immediately. I mean,

00:54:52.300 is, does the Corona virus have some kind of a day timer where, you know, it will, David,

00:54:58.520 it does because you can't have a beer in Alberta. You can order your beer at 10, but you got to get

00:55:04.600 home. You don't have to go home, but you can't stay here by 11 o'clock because the Corona virus

00:55:09.940 is apparently on some kind of timer. It's got a watch and it's got a calendar and that's how it

00:55:15.800 kills you. Apparently. It's so frustrating. Uh, very wise virus. Yeah. Isn't it funny how it'll get you,

00:55:25.340 um, based on the reasons you're protesting? Yeah. For example, BLM, definitely not a super

00:55:31.820 spreader event protesting lockdown straight to jail because it'll get you. You know what,

00:55:38.040 Sheila, that was the turning and Kelly, that was the turning point for me. And I think many people,

00:55:42.420 when we saw those BLM demonstrations, violating all these mandate rules and you had top medical

00:55:50.560 officials and scientists stating on the record that, well, it's for a good reason, uh, and therefore,

00:55:57.720 uh, we'll turn a blind eye, uh, to the lack of social distancing, masking, uh, et cetera.

00:56:03.760 I think that is really the point where they lost the room. Yeah. Yes to BLM. No to Christmas, 0.96

00:56:11.820 you know, uh, anonymous gives us a buck. The best platforms for communication are minds. Then

00:56:18.780 Odyssey and element IO, all decentralized and open source email, proton mail, see Templar. People

00:56:26.980 should not use telegram. It's not good. And signal is the same. Delete your Facebook and Twitter and

00:56:31.520 Google and give, uh, because if you do, you give power to big tech. Okay. Um, I'm just reading

00:56:37.960 these, do what you want, be on whatever social media you want or not, uh, drop. Oh cents gives us

00:56:45.240 20 bucks. It looked to me like a time machine back to 1967. I think David is the only one of us who is

00:56:52.020 alive to remember that the 100th anniversary of Confederation. It has been that long since there's

00:56:58.880 been as much unity as brought by the truckers. Uh, was that 67 or 57? I couldn't read the

00:57:07.840 six. I definitely was not around in 1957. Let me tell you that much. I want to correct the record.

00:57:16.480 I wasn't even around for the first time they whipped out the war measures act. So

00:57:20.600 Billy Howard gives us two bucks until Polyev does a real interview with Ezra as Leslyn Lewis has done

00:57:30.460 repeatedly in my mind. He's just another censorious Laurentian elitist who I cannot support. Has

00:57:36.300 Ezra reached out to him? I don't know, but we should, um, and we should find out if he's going

00:57:41.620 to be, um, a fraidy cat or a true blue conservative. He should be, if he is willing to, uh, smack talk

00:57:49.480 CBC right to their faces, which he is, then he should be brave enough to come on with us and

00:57:54.200 answer some tough questions. And it's a great opportunity because look at this bill says he

00:57:59.720 would consider supporting Pierre. If he would answer Ezra's questions, I'm sure there are a lot of

00:58:04.760 people like bill out there. I think it's a great opportunity if you want to get elected.

00:58:07.900 And you know, Sheila and Kelly, I mean, how many times have we been fooled in the last several

00:58:13.900 years, not just with conservative leaders such as Aaron O'Toole and Andrew Scheer, but with

00:58:19.440 provincial leaders aspiring to be premier marketing themselves as a true blue conservative while

00:58:25.780 they're running. And when they get into office, um, whiz bang, suddenly they're a red Tory. I can't,

00:58:33.180 I, for the life of me, I hope Pierre is going to be true to the messages that he's stating out there

00:58:40.020 that he won't do a flip-flop as we saw from, uh, Aaron O'Toole.

00:58:46.160 You know, I think that's why the party maybe shut him down a little bit last time is because he is

00:58:50.620 a little bit too prickly with the media and they didn't want any of that in their last campaign.

00:58:56.020 Um, so they didn't want him running. Uh, that's just me being speculative, but, um,

00:59:02.360 that wouldn't surprise me given the, uh, direction they took with Aaron O'Toole.

00:59:09.800 Uh, Roly Polly Oly gives us a buck. Good morning. Adorable, deplorable rebels. Any word on 0.99

00:59:15.420 the pastor art arrest? Well, we just talked about what we do know. We are deploying a journalist,

00:59:20.220 Mocha Bezergin. He is back home from the convoy. He went to Coots for a day and he's back in Calgary.

00:59:26.200 So he's, uh, going to catch up with pastor art, if not his family and the lawyer, Sarah Miller,

00:59:32.380 to bring you, um, the other side of the story, which in this case is the only side of the story. 0.60

00:59:38.980 Fraser McBurney, five bucks, scratch a liberal, and you will find a fascist.

00:59:43.220 A Chris Dunn sends us five bucks and I don't see a chat, which is great.

00:59:48.340 Angel for freedom gives us 10 bucks. Excuse me. I'm going to sniff and I don't think anybody wants

00:59:54.320 to hear that. It's important for anyone that can head to Ottawa to do so concerned that something

01:00:00.460 is about to go down. Police less apt to impose violence, a lot calling for governor general to

01:00:06.400 remove JT from office. She's not going to get involved. The only way Justin Trudeau is going to

01:00:12.560 face any sort of challenge to his leadership is from within his own party. The governor general

01:00:18.200 is not going to remove the prime minister. She's just not. She's just not. It's just wishful

01:00:22.260 thinking. It's homemade law again. Uh, Fraser McBurney, five bucks. The 2010 demonstrators were

01:00:29.420 awarded 19.2 million for their actions by Bill Blair. Oh, the G20 or is it the G? Yeah, it was a G20,

01:00:39.080 right? In 2010. When they, yeah. Okay. Uh, for the actions by Bill Blair, how much will it cost us

01:00:45.240 now? You know, who knows? We also gave a $10.5 million to Omar Cotter for, uh, not getting enough

01:00:53.300 sleep and Gitmo. So, but you know what? I remember that G20 meeting in Toronto very well, Sheila, even

01:00:58.860 though it was 12 years ago. And that was one of Bill Blair's most awful moments. I couldn't believe he

01:01:05.580 was still the police chief after it. On day one, on the Saturday, he told all his units, and I spoke

01:01:11.700 to individual Toronto police, stand down, stand down, stand down. And they were overturning police

01:01:17.640 cars and setting them on fire. And there was such a PR black eye to that, that the next day they were,

01:01:25.160 uh, kettling, corralling people, innocent citizens. I remember there was one guy, he was just walking to

01:01:31.700 the pub. He didn't even know about the G20. He was just going to watch a world cup game, a soccer

01:01:37.000 game. And suddenly he finds himself in a mass arrest situation. So he turned a blind eye to the thugs,

01:01:44.980 the Antifa types, the black block types. And then they turned their, uh, ire on law abiding citizens 1.00

01:01:52.660 the next day. You call that policing? No, I call that Bill Blair. He, that's just what Bill Blair does.

01:01:59.920 Look what he's doing. Now that he is the guy in charge of the gun grab, he's doing the same thing.

01:02:05.520 Gangsters, gangbangers, drug traffickers, um, gun traffickers, porous border, allowing it to happen.

01:02:12.540 And he's like, you know who the bad guy is that person out there, plinking cans in the backyard in

01:02:19.960 Alberta. That's who he's going after. You know, like that's Bill Blair always going after the wrong guy

01:02:26.300 because you can't deal with the real problem. Uh, let's see. Um, a lone wolf logic gives us 10

01:02:36.440 bucks as Canada needs you rebel. Keep up the great work. I think we all will. Thank you. I hope so.

01:02:41.620 Uh, bill CF seven gives us a box as Doug Ford announced yesterday, the elimination of vehicle

01:02:47.520 license stickers, which is buying boats. I think you're just getting rid of the stickers,

01:02:52.360 not the renewal charge. Does the inconvenience of putting a sticker out there all the time.

01:02:57.320 It actually has been convenient in Saskatchewan. I can't say it's a policy that I've necessarily had

01:03:02.480 any real emotions on, but if I recall when we did it, I'm trying to remember when that was a while

01:03:06.180 ago now. It's, it's generally just easier, but I, maybe there's political reasons. I can't say.

01:03:10.960 Well, obviously. I don't deal with the license stuff because I don't want to have to go in there

01:03:15.300 and pay all the parking tickets when I go downtown and get a parking ticket. So, um, I just, that's

01:03:21.700 my husband's job. So apparently he hasn't complained about it. So things should be going fine enough

01:03:25.840 since we moved, did the same thing here in Alberta. He can pay my, uh, photo radar. It's fine.

01:03:31.440 And ladies, I'm going to go out on a limb here and guess that Doug Ford's company deco labels does

01:03:36.680 not make those stickers. I don't think he'd give them self, a self-inflicted wound.

01:03:42.040 David, with no, with no new sticker on your little electric car, you can probably go a little

01:03:48.640 faster for a little longer because it's not what you get down. Your weak little car.

01:03:54.020 See, this is the real reason folks why Sheila Gunn-Reed hated Minority Report because in that 0.96

01:03:59.880 future world, all the cars are electric, uh, Lexuses, I believe. And, uh, that, uh, that lack of

01:04:06.460 carbon does not make Sheila a happy gal. 0.87

01:04:09.560 Do you know what? You may be outnumbered on this because I'm with her on this one.

01:04:13.700 Let's just stop and appreciate what oversized vehicles are doing for freedom right now. And

01:04:21.760 the next time some liberal from Vancouver or Toronto or Montreal says, Oh, look at all you

01:04:28.680 Albertans and your oversized vehicles. What do you need those for? For freedom, mine and yours.

01:04:34.200 That's why you're welcome. Oh, Sheila, it's even, it's even beyond freedom. As our good friend,

01:04:39.980 Tucker Carlson has stated, if you are alive, thank a trucker. That's how the food got to the

01:04:46.580 supermarket. That's how the medicine got to the pharmacy and so much more. So even if you, uh,

01:04:54.940 you know, don't believe in, in, in having a vehicle or a carbon basis, I, whatever it is,

01:05:01.840 your, your, your, your beliefs that way, if you want food and medicine, it got there to the store

01:05:07.100 by a trucker. You shouldn't vilify them. You should thank them. Yep. Uh, Steven Rodriguez gives

01:05:14.360 us five bucks. I wish rebel news would use some of these donations to expand their presence.

01:05:19.380 How many continents do we need to be on? Maybe some TV commercials or web ads to raise exposure.

01:05:25.880 I tell everyone I know about rebel news and they are thankful. Well, here's the thing. Uh, we are

01:05:31.500 demonetized on YouTube, so we can't buy ads on YouTube to spread the news. Facebook sometimes

01:05:37.160 declines our ads. Um, it makes it, we have to sometimes self-censor on certain platforms. Um,

01:05:46.980 so it's very difficult, but we are growing organically and, um, we've got some great supporters

01:05:54.020 out there. Um, I don't know, uh, AD, maybe you can find, it was on K2's Twitter feed from last night

01:06:01.740 or this morning. Somebody, we don't know who in Tabor, Alberta, home of lots of acres of corn. Um,

01:06:11.400 that's like the corn capital of Alberta. Um, and I think maybe Nickelback too, now that I'm thinking

01:06:17.480 about it, but they better lay. No, they're from Hannah and I'm sorry that I know that. Why do I know

01:06:21.540 that? Yeah, I think it's just, it's just up the road. It's just up the road and I'm sorry in advance

01:06:25.960 to Tabor for even just loosely associating. Come on, Sheila. That's just mean. Sorry, Tabor. I'll send

01:06:31.300 you a bouquet of flowers. Um, but, uh, somebody just went and bought a billboard like, and not a cheap

01:06:39.100 billboard. This is a digital billboard saying, uh, want the real story of coots? Read the truth. 0.87

01:06:45.780 And it says to go to rebel news. Somebody just did that. We don't even know who did that. That's

01:06:51.400 not us. You know what, Sheila, that might be the sign of the future with all the issues affecting

01:06:57.760 Canada right now. The Trudeau liberals, what do they have on the front burner? It's bill C11,

01:07:03.680 the replacement for bill C10 censoring the internet. That might be the way so many people in the near

01:07:10.800 future are going to have to get their message out. Old school billboards. Well, and even the

01:07:16.060 billboard companies don't want to do any controversial business. So, um, I'm surprised

01:07:20.920 this one went up. It might be a private billboard owned by somebody, but there's a reason why we

01:07:25.380 don't use certain billboard companies. And it's because they are prone to, uh, the pressure mob.

01:07:31.140 They crack under the pressure mob. So we have the one that we use on, uh, Alberta's highway to the

01:07:36.980 busiest highway in Alberta. Um, and so far so good. They haven't cracked to the pressure mob.

01:07:42.380 And I know that there was a time in which they got some heat, not just from the pressure mob,

01:07:46.440 but from the, uh, elections commissioner out here in Alberta. Um, but it's very difficult,

01:07:52.820 but, um, that's why it's so important that our supporters share our work because that's,

01:07:58.980 that's sort of how we grow organically because we don't always have access to buying web ads and

01:08:05.820 stuff like that or billboards or whatever. Buy our merch, turn yourself into a billboard. 0.98

01:08:12.140 How about that? Go to rebel news store.com. Make yourself the walking billboard for rebel news.

01:08:17.300 And when people are like, Oh, what's rebel news? Then you are a brand ambassador for us. Thank you

01:08:22.500 very much. Um, yeah, great. See, and we've got so much great trucker merch in their fringe minority 0.89

01:08:29.160 truck off. Truck off Trudeau. What did you say? Great. Truck off Trudeau. Thank you, trucker.

01:08:36.780 Honk, honk. You can hear me just fine. That hard K, you know.

01:08:41.900 Yeah. Trucker hats to show your support for the truckers. Just go to rebelnewsstore.com

01:08:47.940 and turn yourself into a walking advertisement for rebel news.

01:08:52.820 You know, true story. And I think Kelly might appreciate this. I know this from some, uh,

01:08:57.820 standup comedians. If they're ever in the U S and they're kind of losing the room,

01:09:01.800 just say out loud Saskatoon, Saskatchewan. And people laugh. I think it's that hard K word,

01:09:08.380 you know, letter, right? Well, Saskatchewan, people can't pronounce it. So that's always fun.

01:09:14.140 To be honest, people like Regina more because, you know, I won't say nothing, but that's why

01:09:23.540 people laugh at us. I'm just saying, you want the Saskatchewan reality? That's the word people

01:09:27.660 mock. And then we have to say, yeah, yeah. Pronounce it like the French word. So Saskatoon is a great word 0.90

01:09:32.560 and it's even brought up in music. So a lot of music. I love listening to Americans try to say

01:09:39.360 Saskatchewan. It's fantastic. Or even sometimes Ontarioians are like Saskatchewan. No, no, Saskatchewan.

01:09:47.520 Ottawa. Somebody said a towel. Was that Tucker Carlson said a towel instead of Ottawa one day?

01:09:53.240 I hope. Yeah. And then like when you listen to them say Saskatchewan and they say Saskat or they

01:10:01.100 struggle with the first part and then they say Saskatchewan. I'm like, yeah, one, like WI. It's like W I N. 0.97

01:10:07.640 Yeah. We can always tell. We know. And I know because my hometown is Fort Saskatchewan. So,

01:10:15.600 you know. That's funny. That's another proviso of the standup comedians I know, Sheila. They

01:10:23.540 will not play any city in Canada that has the word fort before its name because they just know

01:10:32.340 they're in for a really, really rough time.

01:10:36.920 There's a couple.

01:10:38.060 McMurray's got a lot of money.

01:10:40.840 Okay. Becca Henderson gives us a buck. Hope your head is feeling better, David. Glad to see you back.

01:10:46.120 Oh, thank you so much. And it kind of is. I don't know if I'm 100%, but functional.

01:10:51.980 I feel like you're operating on all cylinders, David.

01:10:57.560 I concur.

01:10:58.440 Cissor 2 gives us a buck.

01:11:00.900 Pierre Trudeau. Trudeau was overheard by reporters saying how much easier governing would be if things were run

01:11:06.440 the Cuban way. Nuts don't fall far from the trees. Like father, like son. Are we talking about 1.00

01:11:12.880 Cuban dictator or Canadian dictator?

01:11:17.200 Father. My room, Agony, gives us a buck. Good to see you again, Menzoid. 1.00

01:11:25.840 A buck from Aquasquise3636. Agree, re-Poliev. He voted yes to sex-selective abortion. Thank you, Rebel. 0.52

01:11:35.220 Steven Rodriguez, five bucks. If you look closely at Pierre's video, he snuck in a copy of 1984

01:11:41.500 in the bottom right corner. Oh, of his video when he made his announcement that he was running for

01:11:48.220 leader. That would not surprise me. He either has read it or it's a great prop. Either way,

01:11:52.620 he made it noticeable. So yeah, there it is on that bottom right there.

01:11:57.400 Ah, wise. Good man. Good job.

01:12:01.960 Richard, Richard Yeomans gives us 50 bucks. Holy heck. That's very generous.

01:12:07.200 Thank you. I like the comment about spending some money to help mainstream media watchers know there

01:12:12.880 is another alternative telling the other side of the story. Here's the thing. Not a lot of people

01:12:19.100 are still watching mainstream media. I mean, our journalists yesterday alone were all over Fox News.

01:12:26.020 uh, we had journalists, you know, on, uh, Benny Johnson yesterday, Buck Sexton, uh, Tucker Carlson,

01:12:34.700 Sean Hannity. So the largest cable shows in the world, our journalists were on what good would us

01:12:43.200 good. Would it do us to spend money to tell state broadcaster viewers that by the way, we're bigger

01:12:52.100 than the state broadcaster. It just feels like we're punching down a little bit.

01:12:56.360 You know, ladies, isn't it astonishing to you that when it comes to the mainstream media,

01:13:01.540 Canadians have to depend on a U S outlet, namely, as you said, Fox News to find out what's really

01:13:08.380 going on with issues like the, uh, freedom convoy. It doesn't that say it all. Yeah. And Laura

01:13:15.620 Ingraham last night, Laura Ingraham last night, even addressed the, like, why did the truckers have

01:13:22.340 to do this when Canada has an opposition party? And she went down the whole Aaron O'Toole rabbit hole.

01:13:28.200 And it's interesting that you have to look to an American who did maybe a couple of days worth of

01:13:33.940 research to get that sort of analysis that you won't see on the CBC that is paid $1.5 billion

01:13:40.140 to give Canadians that kind of analysis. Anyway, let's keep going because we're way past time to

01:13:48.160 go. Uh, D R B one, three, one, three gives us five bucks. He says he likes Pierre, but even if Harper

01:13:55.900 was leader, I will never vote conservative again. All the backroom scum still pollutes that party. 0.99

01:14:01.840 They do have to do a house cleaning there. Um, Mick three CA a buck. I said before Trudeau 1.00

01:14:09.940 needs to be arrested, unless someone removes the tyrants, the COVID season will never end

01:14:14.320 arrested for what though? Yeah. I'll settle for losing an election. Yeah. I see online. Some

01:14:21.360 people are saying like, you know, we have to do a citizen's arrest. That's how you end up committed

01:14:25.360 to a mental hospital. Don't do that. And I don't mean that you're crazy. I'm going to, I'm saying

01:14:31.360 they're going to treat you like you're crazy. And that's how you end up on a 72 hour hold.

01:14:35.800 Just don't do it. You're at the very best. You'll get tasered, but you'll get thrown in

01:14:41.440 the slammer. You're going to end up on a mental health hold and with all kinds of charges.

01:14:46.080 So just don't do it. Um, don't listen to the low liability people telling you to do those

01:14:51.340 things. If, if it should be done, if those people truly thought it should be done, they

01:14:56.300 would go out and do it themselves, but they're going to tell you to do it. And then what do you

01:14:59.960 go to jail for it? Um, Bob Jermaine gives us a buck and says, our Canada geese is still

01:15:07.220 allowed to honk in Canada, not in Ottawa. They got an injunction. Canada geese are fierce. 0.85

01:15:13.420 I got to say these truckers are fierce, but you don't want to go head to head with the

01:15:16.360 Canada goose. I have been there. I've done that. It's not recommended. So they're not

01:15:19.280 a bad national symbol for us right now. I got to say the libertarian flags with the goose,

01:15:24.240 very clever. When I was a kid, they took over our swimming pool and we just had to give it to

01:15:31.120 them. They just took it. We just like went outside one day and the geese were in the pool. We're

01:15:35.140 like, I guess we don't have a pool now. I guess it's the geese's pool. Sheila, you don't want to

01:15:39.500 swim in that water after Canada. No, of course not. Of course not. But we just like, we're like,

01:15:45.260 okay, well, I guess it belongs to the geese now. Uh, uh, Mick three CA a buck. I bet it's the

01:15:52.380 constant. Yeah. Please leave me alone. Mick three CA. I bet if the constant trunk truck honks

01:16:02.360 were replaced by the, we like to party song by the Venga boys, then truckers wouldn't be banned

01:16:08.680 from honking. Now that's in my head. Thanks a lot. I have no idea. If Waylon Jennings or Dolly Parton

01:16:17.240 didn't sing it, I don't know it. Uh, I know I have, I have old trucker taste in music, so I would

01:16:27.000 fit right in. Uh, Steven Rodriguez gives us five bucks. That is a good point about Fox news with

01:16:32.260 the recent CNN scandals. It would give rebel news more exposure if they could do an interview with

01:16:37.740 Tucker. Well, then you weren't listening last night because Ezra was on Tucker and the whole

01:16:42.140 first segment of Tucker was, um, about the truck convoy. And then right after that was Sean Hannity.

01:16:49.800 I think the second most popular show in cable primetime and his first segment, I think was

01:16:55.840 about the truckers. And then we had Lincoln Jay on there. And I think Lincoln Jay's on tonight also.

01:17:00.680 So, um, we, we are on Fox news actually quite a bit. And on the flip side, Sheila, um, our friends at

01:17:08.820 the democracy fund had, uh, Tucker Carlson on, uh, a zoom or Skype link to a packed house at Canada

01:17:15.840 Christian college a couple of months ago. Um, so yeah, we, uh, we have a channel with them, which

01:17:21.940 is, uh, in terms of communications, um, which is great. Yeah. Why don't we show Ezra's clip?

01:17:28.880 Yeah, let's do it. Excellent.

01:17:32.760 Audio please. Thanks so much for coming on. So get, it seems like your, the Trudeau government

01:17:39.980 has so completely overreacted to what appears to be a thoroughly peaceful protest that my read is

01:17:47.320 an outsider, a non-Canadian is that they're very weak. If they're terrified of the truckers, 0.97

01:17:51.380 you know, this is not a strong government. Yeah. I mean, Trudeau calls them violent.

01:17:57.780 His MPs say they're terrorists, but today in court, the most a judge would give them is that

01:18:04.260 they're enthusiastic horn honkers. And they've asked the truckers to stop honking at night.

01:18:10.520 That's it. Uh, there was an opinion poll that showed 32% of Canadians see themselves reflected

01:18:17.360 in the truckers in our multi-party system that would make them the leading party. If the truckers

01:18:23.920 formed a political movement, I think Justin Trudeau is more scared than he lets on because

01:18:28.340 these are supposed to be his people. They're young, they're ethnically diverse, they're working

01:18:33.100 class people, but they're not following the script that they normally do for him.

01:18:38.600 Can, can he stop this protest? It, I mean, do you think he can successfully shut it down from

01:18:44.600 wherever he's in hiding right now? Well, I mean, taking away the diesel fuel is a low blow. It's

01:18:50.320 very cold in Ottawa and most of these truckers are living in the little cab in their truck. So they

01:18:55.880 need diesel fuel for heat. So by taking away their diesel fuel, as you showed, he's really freezing

01:19:01.300 them out. And by the way, there's some families, there's even some kids. I don't know what legal

01:19:06.080 justification they have. Uh, the, the diesel fuel is not illegal. Uh, selling it, owning it,

01:19:12.480 having it is not illegal. I think he's just sort of thinking, well, what are they going to do to me?

01:19:16.680 Um, you know, these police go in heavily armed, brandishing their arms, taking the diesel fuel.

01:19:22.800 And so many of Canada's checks and balances have failed. There hasn't been a significant court ruling

01:19:28.340 against the lockdowns and Trudeau started hoping that they'll be able to starve or freeze these

01:19:33.460 truckers out. I don't think it's going to work though. It's not just in Ottawa. There are trucker

01:19:38.220 convoys in many other parts of the country, including hundreds that have blocked the Montana,

01:19:44.300 Alberta border for over a week. Now it's in the middle of the prairie, hundreds of huge trucks

01:19:50.300 and agricultural equipment that can't be towed away. The, the Mounties tried to move that blockade. 0.88

01:19:57.420 The burly, uh, truckers stood them down. So I think this problem is bigger than Trudeau knows how to

01:20:03.300 solve unless he goes full Castro on them. Uh, well, he's already going there. Uh, as far as I can tell,

01:20:09.000 it's tyranny and I hope they continue to resist. And Ezra, thank you for covering this fairly and

01:20:14.040 honestly. You, you really almost been unique in the entire country. So we appreciate it as Americans.

01:20:19.060 Thank you. Thanks. Well, you know, the big boss man, uh, knocked it out of the park as per usual.

01:20:24.640 And, you know, isn't it funny ladies, how, you know, a century ago when we were in prohibition,

01:20:28.580 uh, you had to get really creative of hiding your booze. Like you, you, you buy a fish and stuff

01:20:34.380 your, uh, Mickey down the fish so you wouldn't be, uh, arrested and charged. And now it's a hundred

01:20:41.060 years later, it's diesel fuel. That is the new prohibition, uh, contraband in our nation's capital.

01:20:48.760 Do you ever see this coming? No, no. And actually we have a, uh, we have a super chat about it.

01:20:54.560 Maybe we can bring up, um, some stills of this. People are walking around Ottawa now since

01:21:01.480 carrying diesel is illegal. Um, David bird 14 gives us 20 bucks and said, I just started watching.

01:21:09.040 I love the trolling of the police where everyone is carrying a gas can. It's awesome.

01:21:13.300 That's just gas cans. They're the yellow ones. Cause so that the cops think that they're diesel

01:21:18.760 and they're just walking around. And some of them say like full of love and they're empty.

01:21:23.620 And some guy had windshield washer fluid in his, so it's not diesel and carrying a gas

01:21:29.280 can or a diesel can. It's not illegal. Um, but they're getting their cans confiscated,

01:21:34.460 but it's sure keeping the cops busy. You know what, Sheila, you raise a really good

01:21:38.420 point here. Maybe the strategy is to hide in plain sight. I E, uh, don't carry around,

01:21:44.640 uh, uh, a jerry can, but put the fuel in pop bottles, for example. Right. I know that's

01:21:51.640 not the, the most appropriate way to transfer fuel, but desperate times call for desperate

01:21:57.300 measures. Yeah. I saw a Lex's video the other day when they were confiscating diesel. See,

01:22:03.460 yeah, these people are getting their diesel confiscated, but, uh, they confiscated like

01:22:09.860 3000 liters of diesel. It's like 5,000 bucks in one sting. Wow. That's crazy.

01:22:19.080 And what happens to the confiscated material? That's a lot of money. I mean, where is it

01:22:24.940 stored? Who gets to keep it? Yeah. Yeah. People are just wandering around carrying empty cannons.

01:22:34.500 Look at all those haters. Yeah. That's good. Keep the cops busy fighting the real crime in

01:22:43.020 Ottawa. Justin Trudeau, you know, he ethics violations all over the place to the point

01:22:48.440 where they're just numbering the ethics reports, like Trudeau one, Trudeau two, Trudeau three,

01:22:53.140 he gets a slap on the wrist and he has to say, I'm sorry and pay a 200 or $300 fine. That's fine.

01:22:59.820 But carrying a gas can, empty gas can, and the police are going to flatten you on the streets

01:23:04.240 of Ottawa. It's just, we're not a real country anymore. Unbelievable.

01:23:09.700 Uh, okay. Uh, we've Scott's not gives us 20 bucks. Glad to see you back. David Sheila,

01:23:16.340 a pleasure as always. And Kelly has mad skills. I tend to agree. Why thank you.

01:23:23.020 Kind of you. That's very appreciated. And Yana Steckle or Steckley one sends us 20 bucks. I don't

01:23:30.600 see a super chat, but, um, that's very generous. And that I think brings us up to the end of the day

01:23:36.060 and it is 1122 out here in Alberta. So we're well past the top of the hour. So David, why don't you

01:23:42.140 wrap it up for us? All right. Well, I want to thank very much, uh, Kelly Lamb for, uh, joining in.

01:23:47.220 Great to see you, Kelly. And thank you, Sheila. Thank you to all our viewers, especially the ones

01:23:51.180 who gave us some do re mi so that we can keep the lights on. Sheila and I shall be back in this spot

01:23:57.320 at this time on Thursday. In the meantime, stay sane. Hi, my name is Thomas O'Connor. I'm a paramedic

01:24:06.640 with the city of Ottawa. I've been working as a paramedic for the city of Ottawa for 13 years.

01:24:13.520 It saddens me to resign from a profession that I know and love so much. In the 13 years that I have

01:24:20.680 served this city, I've never been this utterly disgusted with the blatant disregard for basic

01:24:27.260 human rights, our constitutionally guaranteed right to free speech and basic Canadian values.

01:24:35.600 I have been on the front lines assisting the young, the elderly, and the injured. I have held the hands

01:24:43.640 of those who are drawing their last breath, and I have also assisted those drawing their first.

01:24:52.180 I am a son,

01:24:55.620 a brother,

01:25:02.100 a father,

01:25:03.420 and a husband.

01:25:03.960 I have dedicated my life serving the residents of Ottawa.

01:25:17.840 I cannot believe that the man entrusted with Ottawa, Ottawa's well-being, has stooped to the level

01:25:36.820 of servitude of this partisan liberal agenda. When I saw the extent of the damage of the COVID-19

01:25:44.840 vaccine mandates and any other mandates that have come since then and how it's inflicted on my community,

01:25:54.840 my country, and the world, I had to join this grassroots movement. I decided I needed to stand

01:26:03.480 alongside the fellow Canadians fighting for their life and their liberty.

01:26:08.760 I must tell you, Mayor Jim Watson, Manager Steve Kanellakis, and Paramedic Chief Pierre Poirier,

01:26:18.760 I have been here on the grounds, and I have seen

01:26:22.300 LIBECC.

01:26:24.300 LIBECC.

01:26:25.660 LIBECC.

01:26:26.300 LIBECC.
